Three Daily Goals – Task Manager That Works With Your Energy Stop drowning in to-dos. Start choosing what matters. You've tried every task manager. You color-coded, prioritized, categorized. But over time, your to-do list became a wall of shame—a reminder of everything you didn't do. Three Daily Goals is built for people who've had enough of productivity pressure. It helps you focus on what truly matters, and gently lets go of what doesn't. "Finally, a task manager that doesn't make me feel behind. I actually look forward to opening it." — App Store Review HOW IT WORKS Three goals a day — Each day, choose three meaningful tasks. Your daily wins. Compass Check: Your Daily Reflection — A short daily review that helps you: • Pick your next goals and keep your direction • Match tasks to your current energy level • Let go of what no longer serves you Energy-Effort Matrix — Not all tasks are created equal. Categorize tasks by the energy they require and their size. On low-energy days, tackle small wins. When you're energized, take on the big challenges. Work with your rhythm, not against it. No More Clutter — Tasks you ignore for 55 hours are moved to the graveyard—out of sight, out of guilt. (You can always revive them later.) A Streak That Feels Good — Every day you do a Compass Check, your streak grows—a small reward for staying present. WHY IT WORKS Most tools treat tasks like a bucket you must empty. Real life is a river—it keeps flowing. Three Daily Goals embraces the river: • You pick three meaningful wins for today • Stale items flow out to the graveyard after 55 hours • You keep momentum without guilt This reframes your to-dos from "finish everything" to "choose wisely and keep moving." "I get more done with less effort—but more importantly, I feel lighter. My list doesn't own me anymore." — App Store Review FEATURES • Daily Priority Widget – See your three goals at a glance • Seamless Sync – iPhone, iPad, and Mac stay perfectly aligned via iCloud • Share Extension – Capture tasks from any app effortlessly • Energy-Effort Matrix – Match tasks to your energy level • Undo/Redo – Made a mistake?
