This is the system I use to make sure I'm productive AND effective.
Quarterly Four. Four goals for the next 3-6 months. Written as “I will”, with how you’ll get there.
Morning Four. Four things you do every morning before anything else. You MUST do these, it sets the tone for the day. Win here and you win everywhere.
Daily Four. Four things that genuinely move you closer to your goals, written the night before.
Keep it simple and keep it the same every day (max 20 mins - unless exercising). This is the thing you build a streak on. Mine’s in there as an example, change it to yours.
These aren’t ticked off, they’re just the lines you don’t cross. Mine are here to start you off, you can use them or make your own. Tap an icon to change it.
Your day resets at 3 am, so a late night doesn't ruin your streak.
From midday you’ll see Tomorrow’s Four underneath today’s. Write tomorrow while today’s still going, so when you wake up you already know what you need to do.
Your streak only counts the Morning Four. Miss it and it resets, so don’t.
Quotes is where I log what I read each morning. If that’s not you, there’s a switch on that page to hide it.
Change any of this later by tapping Edit, or the ⓘ up top to come back here.
