There are plenty of To Do Lists (task managers) in this galaxy. They focus on having you do more number of tasks; rather than the important tasks that move you closer to your goals. They also give you a false sense of comfort that things on your todo apps will get done at some point, and encourage you to dump everything under the sun onto it. And they are depressing to look at because they remind you of what a lazy, procrastinator you are.

Y.do is a unique way of looking at life. It carves up your time into outcomes that make you happy; and bills every step you take towards one of those goals, forcing you to think about the necessity of any step. It moves tasks that are not logistically feasible into a ‘Never’ list, keeping your ‘actual’ todo list real. And it keeps you on track by only allowing you to do only what matters most.

Another way of looking at this is in terms of Time Management best practices and Productivity Habits that are well known. It encourages Focus (only one thing at a time), Priority (there is only one top thing to do), Commitment (it is on your Calendar)

Y.do incorporates things I learned during my career, research on human psychology and practises of successful leaders like Warren Buffett, David Allen, Jerry Seinfeld and of course the inimitable Master Jedi, Yoda!

So give it a shot … and may the Force be with you!
