Mind Your Now is the task app for your work and your household. It puts what matters today up front and holds everything else until it's time. FOUR ZONES, ONE QUESTION Every task sits in one of four zones: Critical Now, Opportunity Now, Over the Horizon and Parking Lot. One question decides what goes in Critical Now: would I stay late to finish this? Keep Critical Now to five or fewer and the day stays doable. START DATES, NOT A WALL OF DUE DATES Tasks show up on the day you plan to start them, so today's list stays short and nothing gets lost. FINISH IT AND SEE IT Check off a task and a red pen stroke draws through it. Changed your mind? Undo. ONE APP FOR THE HOUSEHOLD Share grocery lists and chores with your household, and see who added what. Habits and focus timers live here too. Connect Google Calendar or Microsoft Outlook. WORKS OFFLINE, ON ALL YOUR DEVICES Your tasks, habits, chores, grocery lists and timers are stored on your device and work offline. They sync between your devices when you're online. Kaia, sync, calendar connections and sign-in need a connection. Export an encrypted backup any time. KAIA, IF YOU WANT HER Kaia is an optional AI planning assistant. She can plan your day with you, remember your routines and preferences, and talk by voice on paid plans. When she tidies your list on her own, she signs each change and leaves an Undo. The four zones and the Going Home Test come from Michael E. Linenberger's Master Your Now method.

This app is based on a brand new psychological method for overcoming procrastination. By using this app you will be able to turn moments of procrastination into moments of productive and fulfilled life, without experiencing discomfort in the process. App helps you re-calibrate 2 crucial components of your procrastinator brain: Motivation: You need motivation in order to want doing something. Resistance (discomfort): Once you are motivated to do something, it doesn’t mean that you will be able to actually begin doing it. This happens because of feeling of resistance and discomfort. The most basic and easiest way to rise your level of motivation is by watching motivational material. For this reason, multiple times a days, application shows you personalized images and quotes that fire you up as much as possible. When still motivated, then app leads you towards removing feeling of discomfort which you feel when you think about beginning a task. You remove discomfort by listening a short audio which instantly calms your mind. Calmer mind means less thoughts which leads to less feelings and emotions, including feeling of discomfort. Using this app daily will quickly bring noticable results to your emotional state, where you feel more and more willing to do the work which leads you to fulfilled life. YOU DON’T NEED WILLPOWER OR SELF DISCIPLINE! These 2 will come by themselves as you progress towards transformation of your mindset. To speed up process of transformation from lazy, low energy procrastinator into highly motivated achiever, check out the free course which is included in the app.
