🇺🇸 Only available in the USA (for now).
Welcome to the “Clean” Edition of The Anti-Planner, the bestselling productivity game-changer you didn’t know you needed—now, with no cuss words! 🧼 Do you know what you need to do, but struggle to get yourself to do it? Get bored easily? Abandon every planner you’ve ever tried? Beat yourself up a lot? Yeah. Me too. The Anti-Planner is an activity book specifically designed to help procrastinators:
  • Try unique, entertaining ways of completing tasks
  • Untangle emotions that make it hard to get stuff done
  • Smash through productivity roadblocks
  • 300+ full-color pages (with over 100 activities)
The “Clean” Edition has:
  • No cuss words: You asked for an Anti-Planner with cleaner language, and we delivered—the strongest language you’ll find is an occasional ‘crap’, ‘dang’, or ‘heck’.
  • The same relatable, humorous tone: Just because the language is cleaner, doesn’t mean it’s any less fun. It’s like having a cheerleader, a mentor, and your funniest friend, all rolled into one incredibly helpful book. It doesn’t judge, doesn’t preach, and doesn’t pretend to have all the answers—but it will help you figure out what works for YOU.
*Prefer the original version with generous sprinklings of swear-words? Here ya go! Or check out the mini digital bundle of 30 PDFs 🙂
I’m doing a super-small first print run to gauge interest in a “clean” version, so there will only be 5,000 books made.

Available on backorder

Description

The Anti-Planner is not a planner; there are no dated pages or calendars! Think of it as a productivity recipe book—a survival guide of strategies for when you’re struggling to get stuff done.

    I love this book! It’s got great ideas to help break my procrastination mental block and help me choose how to organize and prioritize. And some of them are kind of fun, even though I know I’m doing it to get “work” done. The different suggestions have been really helpful so far.

    I ordered the original Anti-Planner and sent one to my son also. When the “clean” version came out, I ordered that too and will send my first book on to a younger friend. I really enjoy the creative ideas in this book and the ideas make it fun to try to do the things that I don’t want to do. The more I can make life into a game, the more enjoyable it is. I know this book will be very helpful to me over many years and I’m thankful that I found out about it, so I could get my own copies.

    I LOVE this resource! I am a Licensed Professional Counselor who was diagnosed with ADHD later in life. As I work to help myself and my clients learn to live and cope with our ADHD, I have found many resources; this is one of the best! This book is relatable and easy to use. In the first two weeks of having the Anti-planner, I have recommended it to multiple clients and colleagues. Thank you for the valuable information with such a creative presentation.

    I bought the original Anti-Planner and loved everything about it–the variety of strategies, the thoughtful and encouraging language, and the gorgeous design. I received my copy during the summer, and planned to share the strategies with my middle school students when I came back to teach in the Fall. When I saw there was a clean version, I bought that one too so I could just have the book itself in the classroom!

    It finally arrived and it was so worth the wait! I put the book out on the shelf a few days ago, and the students naturally gravitated to it. I think one of them is even going to ask his parents to buy him a copy for himself. Thank you Dani for inspiring my students!
