Time blocking planner: give every task its own block
Time blocking means deciding when you will do each task, not just what. Give every task a start time and a length, and your day becomes a set of blocks you can see, move and stretch.
A block for every task
Set a start time and a duration for each task and it takes its place in the agenda. You see at once how much of your day is already taken and how much is free.
Move and stretch
Drag a block to another hour or another day, and stretch its edges to change how long it lasts. Every change can be undone, so you can rearrange your day as often as it changes.
Your calendar in the same view
Paste the secret address of your Google, Outlook or Apple calendar and its events appear next to your blocks. They are read-only, and idazery never asks you to sign in to your account.
Blocks that repeat
Working out on Mondays and Wednesdays, an hour of study every morning: set the task up once as a recurring task, with its time and duration, and it comes back by itself.
A day in blocks, with the idazery method
Write, look, decide, do: from a full head to a day with its blocks.
Write
A few lines about what you have to do and what is worrying you. Everything, in any order.
Look
You read it back and see what is urgent, what is important and what can wait.
Decide
You give each task that matters a day, a time and a duration, and what does not fit goes to another day.
Do
The agenda shows your blocks hour by hour. You follow it, mark each task as done and move what did not fit.
