Our brains are not made for to-do lists. When we see a list of tasks that is long and diverse, the planning apparatus of our brain locks up. It can’t deal with these 10 or 15 things that have to be done. So it freezes. No motivation is generated, and procrastination kicks in.
Flowist is a web-based companion for Todoist. It pulls in your tasks and lets you focus on one task at a time. One thing, right there in front of you. Our brains can handle that. Skip the overwhelm and find flow.
