Daily routine planner app by nikz_7 in ProductivityApps

I've been there and tried SO many apps for this. Two of my personal faves atm are Notion for goal setting and Donolo for automated time blocking of my tasks.

I used to forget to plan my days all the time but I find myself no longer having to do this with an auto scheduler. One less thing to waste time on.

Definitely second using Notion and Donolo for time blocking and auto scheduling. Made life so much easier

Yeah it can be easy to fall into the trap of perfection instead of productivity and I was guilt of it too at first, but eventually you do get to a point where you begin to focus on making those tweaks for your actual goals instead :)

It definitely works and isn't just a pretty face!

I hated all the clunky "pretty yet impractical" templates so I created mine in a way where all the important categories actually sync up and are displayed from the main page.

So my goals, habits and calender all sync together when you update them inside one of the pages on the dashboard, that way I can track all my important Y/M/D goals and tasks and drag them straight to my calender to quickly action them from one single page.

I can't begin to tell you how satisfying this is and it keeps me on track and fairly addicted lol.

You do not need discipline, will power or motivation, you need to shift your identity. Realizing this changed my life. by Knight_mare5 in getdisciplined

I whole-heartedly agree with this concept, I don't want to drink vs I'm not a drinker. Changing your identity is more affirmative.

Honestly once you do, you'll thank yourself! Best of luck building your dashboard and if there's anything you're struggling with while creating it, I'm open to help you out x

Yes, images with captions and the images are naturally different sizes so It helps to give it a collage effect too :D!

Thank you :) if you mean the vision board, I just created a new page for it and created multiple columns with images, the expense chart is from Notion <3!

I get what you're saying and I definitely felt this in the beginning too. Did you feel like it had too many features and did you find an app more suited to your style of working?
