Theme days

Theme days are a strategy to break down each day of your working week into a different "theme" so you can stay focused on one thing each day even if you wear a lot of hats.

Theme days

Theme days are a strategy for breaking your work week into different themes for each day of the week. That way, each day, you can get deeply focused on one thing at a time even if you have to wear a lot of hats. It makes it easier to plan out your days and weeks, gives you a sense of how much time you'll have in a week for a given project, and gives you a place to put incoming work so you don't feel forced to work on it immediately.

Implementing theme days

  2. Create a task on a Monday, put your theme in the title, add any notes, links, or inspiration to the notes section. Make the task repeat every Monday.
  3. Repeat this process for each day!
