The MIT Planner is a minimalist template designed to cut through planning overwhelm and help you focus on what truly matters each day. With a simple weekly setup and daily one-minute check-ins, this approach prevents task paralysis by emphasizing your Most Important Task (MIT).
• Weekly planning section with one core goal and supporting tasks
• Daily MIT template requiring just one minute to complete
• End-of-day reflection prompt to celebrate small wins
• Clean, distraction-free layout for maximum focus
• Reduces decision fatigue and planning stress
• Builds consistent progress on meaningful projects
• Prevents task overwhelm by limiting daily commitments
• Creates a sustainable productivity habit that takes minimal time
Start by setting one weekly goal and up to three small supporting tasks. Each day, identify just one Most Important Task to complete. Optionally add two smaller tasks if you have capacity. End each day by noting one thing that went well to build momentum and positive reinforcement.
