The Daily Flow
Start Your Day
- Choose a Day Type that matches your energy level
- Select your Energy (low, medium, or high)
- Your plan template adjusts to match your capacity
Build Your Today
- Tasks that match your day are highlighted automatically
- Pull items from your inbox, projects, or queue
- Drag and reorder tasks to match your priorities
Adapt Throughout the Day
- Defer tasks that can wait
- Move tasks between blocks as needed
- Adjust your plan without breaking it
Close the Day
- Review what happened (or didn't)
- Record a win and add a note
- Carry forward what matters, let go of the rest
Key Principles
- Energy-first planning—Your capacity shapes your plan, not the other way around
- Flexible structure—Templates provide scaffolding, not rigid schedules
- No shame—Incomplete tasks don't become moral failures
- Mindful transitions—Review helps you close one day and start the next
