What matters most, one at a time. Ivy To Do is a to-do list inspired by the Ivy Lee Method: every evening, write down the most important things for tomorrow, put them in order, and start with the first one. Add as many tasks as you like. HOW IT WORKS • Following the Ivy Lee Method, we suggest starting with your 6 most important. No tags, no due dates, no folders. • Drag to put the most important task first. • Unfinished tasks carry over to tomorrow on their own, with a +1d badge so you can see how long they have waited. • Plan tomorrow tonight on the Tomorrow tab.

THE IVY LEE METHOD In 1918, Charles Schwab, president of Bethlehem Steel, asked consultant Ivy Lee how his team could get more done. Lee's advice: each evening, write down the six most important things for tomorrow, number them, start with the first, don't move on until it's done, carry the rest over, and repeat. Three months later, Schwab sent him a check for $25,000. A century on, it still works.
