A 1-page daily productivity planner that will help you win each day with 4 simple steps.
Everyday we're writing a page in the story of our year, which is ultimately writing a page in the story of our life. What you do today matters.. So make sure you do what matters. This planner helps you prioritize what matters and create a focused plan for getting it done. It’s as simple as 4 daily steps:
The goal was to create the most effective daily planner on the market and we did it by creating the most focused planner on the market.
Complexity is the enemy of productivity. There are many great planners on the market, but let’s be honest life doesn’t always give us enough time to wade through all of the complexity that comes with them. This planner is for the mom, dad, business person that find themselves juggling life, work, and looking for a simple solution to stay focused and productive.
1 Page, 4 Steps... To being the most productive version of yourself
1. Maintain A Rhythm
Rhythms help keep us focused and productive during the day, especially when there’s a lot to accomplish. Consider starting and ending your day with a simple routine that prepares you to tackle the big items on your list. For example, every morning you might workout, meditate, define priorities, check email, and start your most important task. Try different things until you find a rhythm that works for you.
2. Do What Matters First
It’s easy to get bogged down with a million different tasks you need to accomplish everyday, but let’s be honest, most of us aren’t getting it all done. The most important thing is that we do what matters and do that first. Typically, the tasks that matter most are often also the hardest tasks. Naturally, we tend to postpone them in favor of something easier. Unfortunately, this leaves us more stressed and less productive at the end of the day. So, do what matters (and what’s hard) first! This will set the tone for a successful day.
3. Fill The Gaps With Quick Wins
Throughout the day, there are gaps, such as 5 minutes before the next call or 20 minutes before the end of the day. It’s in these moments that time is often wasted because we don’t know what to work on. Everyday, create a list of tasks that take 15 minutes or less. We all have plenty of these quick to-do’s to tackle each day, whether it’s paying a bill, responding to an email, or one of the many other tasks that can be done in a matter of minutes. When you find yourself with one of these gaps in your day, pick the first thing from this list and get it done. Filling the gaps with quick wins is a great way to accomplish more in your day.
4. Postpone, Delegate, or Choose to Pass
Everyday there will be more to do than is physically possible. Successful people quickly learn to postpone, delegate or choose to pass. Making a conscious decision to postpone a to-do will free up mental space to focus on the task at hand. Delegate. I once heard someone say, “If you find someone who can do a task at least 80% as good as you... delegate.” If you lead people or work within a team, learn how to delegate in order to make the most of your time. If you don’t have anyone to delegate to, consider using automation tools to handle tasks you once managed yourself. Choosing to Pass is another key component to conquering your day. Learning to say “No” is one of the hardest, but best ways to be more efficient with your time.

This is the most concise, helpful organizational tool I've found. This is the daily nudge I needed to accomplish (or delegate). It doesn't hurt that the paper is lovely to touch and the layout is visually appealing. I bought one for a friend and an extra for myself. This will stay on my "wish list" for Mother's Day or birthday. Fabulous!
I have ADHD and have tried many planners in my life. I still need to develop a better habit of using this planner daily, but when I do, it has been very helpful! I appreciate the way that it is laid out to help focus on priorities and get little wins throughout my workday that help me to keep going. I like that this planner is simple and straightforward, but that it breaks daily tasks down into categories. I also really love the legal pad format and the perforated pages. I think this is the planner I have been looking for for a while and am very happy with it so far. Thank you!
I love how this planner is organized. The categories are perfect for prioritizing the day, from the one must-do tasks to quick wins that can be filled in only a few minutes. I also really like the space at the top to help me sharpen and commit to my morning routine.
Excellent, non-complicated daily planner with all the right elements. I have only been using this for a week and it has definitely helped me organize my day more effectively as well as focus on delivering the essentials and just letting some things go for the day. I made use of the offer and bought enough for my whole marketing team, I'm sure they'll love it too!.
The worst thing about a To Do list is how overwhelmed you feel after you've done one. This format is freeing in that you are consciously choosing what's most important. You're consciously delegating what you can. The best part for me is the quick wins. How often do you have 20-30 min before your next meeting begins and you think, that's not enough time to start a big project? It's tempting to get distracted with an online rabbit hole instead. It's refreshing to have a ready list of quick tasks you can do in those in-between times. The pages aren't dated, so if you only use it a couple times a week, that's fine. For me, this format helps keep things in focus. I use daily rhythm to record meeting times rather than a morning wind-up or evening wind-down routine. That helps me see what blocks of time I have for individual work and be slightly more realistic about what's possible in those blocks of time.
As a part-time work-from-home homeschooling mom of 3 who also helps run a small ministry, you could say I wear a lot of hats. What I love about this planner is that it helps me organize my day without feeling like I am being pulled in one hundred different directions. I start most days with my morning rhythm: work out -< quiet time -< write out to-do-list -< start homeschool. Once our homeschool morning is finished and I have had a short brain break to do something that fills me up, I move into my single most important work task of the day. From there I work down the list through the next tasks, and when my job tasks are complete, I can tackle one or two quick admin items on my quick wins list for ministry. It works for me, and it really is nice to just tear off the sheet at the end of the day when my work is complete.
This planner is so good. As someone who wears multiple hats during the course of the day, this planner has provided me with the tool that I have been looking for to stay focused and organized. The layout is easy to use and I appreciate the additional spot for notes throughout the day.
Thanks Sam! We're glad its working for you. Let us know if we can do anything else for you.

Update to 5 star!
Earlier review gave 4 stars because wanted some explanation about the Daily Rhythm section. Emailed company and got a reply very quickly from Chris solving my problem. The real problem turned out to be that I was so excited to use the planner that I took it out of box today and set on desk and started using immediately without looking at the back where the explanation for each section is....
I love this for weekly and daily planning-undated so don't waste days and allows me to use for a weekly plan as well and I appreciate the quick response!
Bought two of these to get some new work projects organized - and my overall day flowing in a more productive manner. While I always have been a “list maker” this planner gives me room to be both task driven and also have plenty of room to for my “creative side” to outline and plan those types of projects. The paper is good, not worries there - and shipped to me fast. Two thumbs up!
