What is Time Boxing or Time Blocking?
Time Boxing is a time management strategy, in which tasks are allocated a fixed time period within your schedule.
Why Should I Timebox?
Don’t let it’s simplicity fool you. Time Boxing is one of the most effective ways to plan your day.
1. Eliminate Distractions… Time Boxing promotes a single-tasking mindset where one’s full attention to is devoted to a task for specified duration of time. This discourages unproductive multitasking and jumping, where people jump back and forth between projects and end up getting little done.
2. …And Feel in Control. By Time Boxing you will feel more in control. This is especially important because control may be the biggest driver of happiness at work. Constant interruptions make us less happy and less productive. Timeboxing is the proper antidote to this. You decide what to do and when to do it, block out all distractions for that timeboxed period and get it done. Repeat. Consistent control and demonstrable accomplishment is hugely satisfying, even addictive. This is not just above productivity, this is about intent and how we feel.
3. Reduce Work Related Stress. Time Boxing encourages allocating deliberate time away from the desk, reducing the chance of employee burnout. This can help people feel more rejuvenated and more productive when they are working.
4. Curb Perfectionist Tendencies. Time Boxing is known to be a life hack to help curb perfectionist tendencies (by setting a firm time and not overcommitting to a task) which can also enhance creativity and focus (by creating a sense of urgency or increased pressure).
5. Be substantially more productive. Parkinson’s Law flippantly states that work expands so as to fill the time available for it’s completion. Creating a sense of urgency to get each task done in a predetermined amount of time helps people accomplish more in the same time period. .
A de-cluttered mind allows brilliance to flow – Use The Time Box to free up mental bandwidth so that you can focus on your tasks – professionally.
Don’t Stress! Productivity and clarity go hand-in-hand – The Time Box should be treated like a blank canvas. Don’t let the boxes intimidate you. You decide what goes in them, and how long your tasks should last for. If one one day does not go as planned, don’t stress. Being more productive and gaining clarity is a process that will improve each time you use The Time Box.
The Time Box methodology is no secret – From Bill Gates and Elon Musk to Benjamin Franklin, Time Boxing is known to help immensely with productivity. Harvard Business Review conducted a study of the top 100 productivity hacks and Time Boxing was number 1.

Exactly meets my needs
Love the brain dump. The 30-minute breakdown of my day has improved the quality and timeliness of my time tracking which was my objective in buying this. The pad pulled off the cardboard back, but this was inevitable. Love having the dot lined writing space as lines are not my preference. This is half the price of the notebook configuration which would be my choice if I was willing to pay for it.frankly, if I wasn’t on a glide path to retirement I might be willing to spring for the sexier notebook. The weight of the paper if just right and is part of making this product and this packaging as a pad a good value for money. You’ll like the quality of this product.

Very useful and simple
This item is very easy to use. I love how there is extra space to write notes about the day and the things you want to remember. I also love how it’s a notepad so there aren’t extra pages from the days before. It also comes with a good amount of sheets that will last you a long time. I recommend this item for any planner or even someone getting into it because it is so simple.

Good Product
Easy to use, just look up how to use it. I like it because it points out the top 3 tasks to get done then you assign it to timeslots and then can add notes.

Useful and Good Quality
I really like using this daily planner! As a college student, the planner has a ton of space to write my schedule and assignments, as well as non-school things. I typically use the top priorities boxes as a way to list my assignments due today or tomorrow and brain dump for a more detailed to-do list. The back also has plenty of space to write or do quick notes during the day which is great.The paper is also really good quality! It is nice and thick. So far none of my pens or highlighters have bled through, which is really nice. I’m pretty new to time-blocking and so far this planner has been super useful.

Keep it Simple to Keep Focused
Real simple concept to keep you on focus to hit targets. Targets are what we hit on the path to completing the bigger goal. I like the simplicity this offers. Just pick 3 targets to hit. I can schedule the whole day and be “busy”, but starting by recognition of my target, allows me to reel in wasted action and get back to the 3 targets today.If I hit them early, I can start a new sheet same-day and continue being productive for reaching the bigger goal.

It’s ok, not outstanding; wasn’t as useful as I’d like it to be.
I donated it because I didn’t like it much. I can’t really get why I didn’t like this, but I suppose it might be because my life isn’t the type where I have the energy to complete tasks at the time I planned them, which makes the time slots unuseful to me; I work and I’m helping my Mom raise my sister, so doing things at certain times doesn’t work because she might take longer to eat a certain day, or she might take longer to sleep and it’s unpredictable with a child. I also didn’t like that you had to remove the paper you used and use the one on the bottom, i dont know why, but i dont like that. I think if you don’t have siblings or children and/or you live alone, then this would be useful.

カバーがレザーと書いてありますが、ただの紙しか届きません。かつ、事前によく確認すれば良かったのですが4,769円で60枚ということは1枚あたりの単価は80円です。画像をご覧の上、どうぞTime Boxをしたいと考えた際には別の方法での入手をお勧めします。（仮に修正された場合に備え、現時点の記載→ カバー材質 レザー）

Well writing this review is on my 11:30 slot for 15 minutes, but hoping to bash out in 5 so aI can procrastinate for the other 10 minutes and my next slot!Bought after seeing one of them TikTac videos and couldn’t be happier, though it was quite expensive so I haven’t actually worked up the courage to use it yet.Could probably just make it on excel and print, well I figured out what I am filling my next 10 minutes with…

THE PAGES FALL OFF. For this price I thought it would be hardcover or at least stay together. The pages fall off and it is useless if you want to keep notes and see what you have do each week
