    It’s a beefy boi and I love it!

    I expected a much smaller book, this beefy boi feels like it will survive with me whatever life throws at us. ????

    Just what I need. I was a bit worried that it would be another great but unread book lying in the bookshelf gathering dust… yes, I will clean anytime soon now.
    But after starting reading, restlessly skipping a few pages, I found page 13: “How to use the Anti-Planner”. Reading that page made it clear to me that this is exactly what I need. And yes, It has already been helpful !!!

    After just two days it has already helped my get some sh*t done !!!

    I preorderd this with low expectations, I’ve struggled with planners and really anything tat helps structure my days. This book has blown my expectations out of the water. First of all, it’s huge, so much bigger than I ever expected, there’s so much helpful information in it. Secondly, the way the Anti-Planner works makes so much sense to my ADHD brain, it’s like dropdown menus that send you to several methods to help get yourself on your way with whatever “thing” you may be trying to work on. I’m so excited to implement some of the tips and tricks into my daily life. I highly recommend this for anyone who thinks they’ve tried everything to help manage their ADHD or any other struggles you may have getting organized.

    I pre-ordered with hope that this would be a little bit better than the other 10+ planners I’ve tried and failed at keeping up with. WOW was I wrong! Event the word “planner” being in the title doesn’t do this book justice. It’s not a planner at all. It’s an extremely specific, thorough, easy-to-do guide to dealing with the feelings that procrastination tries to hide. I’ve already been able to work through emotions that try to block me from doing certain tasks. This is the ONLY thing that has ever helped me overcome those barriers.

    I love how it starts by identifying the big emotion (Stuck, Disorganized, Discouraged, etc) and then breaks it down into more specific sub-emotions to find the excercise that would work best in that instance. I also like how there are suggestions of other pages from different sections you might like based on that emotion. As an AUdhder, it can be difficult to narrow down on what my emotions actually are, so these links to different sections in the book can help me find what actually will help in that moment.

    I hope one day there can be a companion PDF of the worksheets that I can import into GoodNotes or print out so I can keep filling in those pages after I fill them up! For now, I’ll just be erasing which is fine, but would love to be able to order a companion pdf version.

    Thank you Dani, and keep creating!!
