Why the Hustle Planner works! 

Burnout is a common issue for busy professionals, and The Hustle Planner incorporates science-backed methods to help you maintain your momentum without overextending yourself. Features like regular check-ins, gratitude journaling, and mood tracking keep you attuned to your mental and emotional state, allowing you to take proactive steps to avoid burnout. Additionally, the planner encourages you to establish and track new habits, fostering small, consistent actions that lead to significant positive changes over time.

We’ve integrated the best productivity methods into one seamless planner:

Pomodoro Method

The Pomodoro Technique is a time management method that breaks work into intervals, traditionally 25 minutes in length, separated by short breaks. This method is designed to improve focus and productivity by encouraging sustained periods of concentration followed by brief periods of rest. Research shows that this technique can enhance concentration and reduce mental fatigue. By implementing this method, you’ll find it easier to tackle large projects and maintain a high level of productivity throughout the day.

Time Blocking

Time blocking is a time management practice where you schedule blocks of time for specific tasks or groups of tasks. This method helps you allocate your time effectively, ensuring that your most important tasks get the attention they deserve. By setting aside dedicated time for different activities, you can prevent multitasking and increase your productivity. Time blocking also helps you visualize your day, making it easier to see where your time is going and how you can optimize it.

3-3-3 Method

The 3-3-3 Method focuses on prioritizing three key tasks to accomplish each day, each week, and each month. This approach helps you maintain a clear focus on your most important objectives, making it easier to manage your workload and avoid feeling overwhelmed. By breaking down your goals into manageable chunks, you can achieve more without burning out. This method encourages you to identify and tackle your top priorities, ensuring that you’re always making progress towards your long-term goals.

Lyubishchev Method

The Lyubishchev Method, named after the Soviet entomologist Dmitry Lyubishchev, involves tracking and analyzing your time to identify how it is spent. This method helps you become more aware of how you use your time, allowing you to make more informed decisions about how to allocate it. By understanding where your time goes, you can improve your efficiency and productivity. The Lyubishchev Method promotes accountability and self-awareness, helping you identify time-wasting activities and replace them with more productive habits.

Productivity Journaling

Productivity journaling involves recording your thoughts, plans, and reflections to improve your productivity. This practice encourages you to set goals, track your progress, and reflect on your achievements. By regularly reviewing your journal, you can gain insights into your productivity habits and make adjustments to improve your efficiency. Journaling also serves as a motivational tool, helping you stay focused and committed to your goals.

Key Features:

Goal Setting

The Hustle Planner begins by guiding you through a series of questions to help you fully understand and feel your goals. You’ll define your lifetime goals, 5-year goals, 1-year goals, and quarterly goals. These goals are then validated, visualized, and committed to, giving you the highest chances of success. By clearly outlining your objectives, you can create a roadmap to achieve them, making it easier to stay on track and measure your progress.

Habit Formation

Establishing new habits is crucial for personal growth. The Hustle Planner helps you identify and track new habits you’d like to establish, such as reading more, drinking water regularly, or exercising. By focusing on habit formation, you can make lasting changes that improve your daily life. The planner’s habit-tracking feature allows you to monitor your progress, celebrate your successes, and stay motivated to continue building positive habits.

Accountability Partner

Accountability is key to staying on track with your goals. The Hustle Planner encourages you to choose an accountability partner—someone who has read your goals and will help hold you accountable. This partnership can provide the support and motivation you need to stay committed to your objectives. An accountability partner can offer encouragement, provide feedback, and help you overcome obstacles, increasing your chances of success.

The Hustle Planner Story

We’ve all been there: it’s the first week of January, and you’re starting to get back into everything after the holidays. Motivation is high, and you’re busy planning for the year ahead, writing your goals down and planning for all the success you will no doubt have that year. But as time goes by, motivation is lost, and the planner on the desk in front of you sits with its pages full of task after task. Within just a few weeks from the initial early January motivation peak, things can quickly slip back into a slump. It’s the same reason all the gyms are full the first few weeks of January and the same reason that by the end of February, they’re back to their usual.

Keeping track of goals and tasks is one thing; staying motivated is another, and keeping it all together mentally is yet another! Not to mention everything else that goes on in life: health, relationships, friends, family, and so on. It’s a wonder that anyone can get anything done.

This was an issue I found repeating itself year after year. It wasn’t that I wasn’t getting things done or that I wasn’t at least partially hitting my goals. It was more that doing so was hard. Every year, in that first week of January, I would look for another planner to buy or download, and again, it would fall short of my expectations. However, I quickly found out that I wasn’t alone in this. This was a problem that so many others faced too. Not only is everyone struggling to keep on top of their goals, but they’re also looking for a great planner to help them and, more often than not, failing. We all found that even the planners that did work for us were either too focused on one type of productivity, gratitude, manifestation, etc., that they fell short overall.

So, in January 2023, we got together and made our own planners using a blank sketchbook. We discussed what we struggled with, why we struggled with these issues, and how these issues could be addressed. We discussed what we liked about other planners and what we didn’t like about them. We spoke about the best productivity methods, what we liked and what we didn’t like. We spoke about our mental health struggles, the breakthroughs and techniques from our therapy sessions, and how they could help others. Before long, we had the basics for what could be an amazing planner. Over the next few months, we tested, deleted, added, and tested again parts of the planner based on our ongoing discussions and learnings.

The end result? The Hustle Planner. A planner that offers organization, motivation, reflection, gratitude, visualization, and more to ensure that goals are met, tasks are completed, motivation is strong, and most importantly of all, mental health is in check and burnout is prevented.

We hope that what we have created in The Hustle Planner will help you as much as it has helped us improve our lives and smash our goals. The Hustle Planner is not meant to overwhelm anyone with any one type of productivity hack or push any one area of thought. It blends everything that we tried, takes out what doesn’t work, and leaves only the strategies and implementations of a planner that worked for all of us.

To a happier, more fun, and more successful future 😊
