In today's video, I'm showing you how I create my 90 day plan. I have been setting quarterly goals for over a year now, and this has been KEY to being more productive and more focused in my business.
I also show you how I use that board behind me in my videos--a kanban board--to keep track of my progress and to help motivate me to keep working toward my goals!

I’m not a writer or an entrepreneur; I’m a college student with an office job. BUT I really really love your system and I’ve been a little addicted to watching your videos lately! I will definitely try the 90 day planning to see if I can get my grades back up and start a side hobby I’ve been wanting to do for a long time!

@HeartBreathings 6 лет назад

Do you guys set 90 day goals? Do you think you might want to try your own Kanban board?

Oh my! I have never heard of this concept before! I am the world's worst procrastinator, but watching this has made me realise that I don't ever set real goals either. I say I want to do something but then nothing happens cause I put it off or get distracted. I think I'm going to give this a try to see if it can help keep me focussed! Thanks for the brilliant video!

@lynnbalabanos7092 6 лет назад

I love this Kanban board! I also started planning in 90- day stages this year because I found an entire year was too overwhelming and, by the time I got midway through the year, things had changed or needed to be adjusted. You've given some amazing tips and tricks I'm going to use in my own planning. Thanks. :)

@DawnMontgomeryAuthor 6 лет назад

At first, I was thinking - what a lot of work, there must be easier ways! 25 minutes later, the veil has been lifted. I can't wait to have a go at creating my own kanban board now!

@artisticsharon1216 4 года назад

This system can be used so universally! I'm a quilter and I have a back log of WIPs (works in process) that have been making me feel so overwhelmed, like I'll never be able to finished them all. And of course I can't finish them all at once! But if I pick just a few and make each one it's own goal with a set of tasks to complete over the next 90 days I can absolutely get those done without worrying about the rest - they'll have their own turn!! Thank you so so very much for sharing your process - the way you explain this really resonates with me and is so helpful!!

@dotcassilles1488 3 месяца назад

I'm a beginner at crochet but have alot of crafty projects that I need to finish. Each year I try to make most of my presents and end up cramming in thd last 3 months to get things done on time. I think applying this method to craft projects like quilting is a genius idea... Thanks for the inspiration. I'm recovering from being bed bound with a list of chronic health challenges including chronic fatigue syndrome so I need to balance how much energy I use towards health, my house, my hobbies and other personal goals like catching up with friends and family. I think this is a life changing lesson we all need. Blessings from South Eastern Australia, Dot

@dotcassilles1488 3 месяца назад

Watching in march 2024... This! This is what I need just to manage my life. I am recovering from being bed bound with a list of chronic health challenges including chronic fatigue syndrome and looking to rebuild my life. Lately I'm frustrated by spending all my time and energy (and money) on health focussed stuff and not getting my housework done or having fun or even catching up with friends and family. I've been trying to decide on how much energy I can afford to spend on each category/context without risking progress or a flare-up in my health challenges. I think I'm going to set limits for the broad categories of health, house, hobbies and fun, and personal goals. Thankyou for being so open about how you go about planning and completing the breakdown of tasks that cover from daily tasks and add up to your 90 day goals. Life changing for me I think. Blessings from South Eastern Australia, Dot

Love this! Just started switching to 90 day goals in Q4 of 2018. My Q1 2019 has started off well, but I definitely said yes to too many things and fell off track again. Excited to use some of this system with my goals for the next quarter

@HeartBreathings 6 лет назад

Carol, I am a major procrastinator, too! That's why this system is helping me. If I give myself infinite time to get things done, I will just NEVER get it done. Setting my goals up this way with 90 day deadlines and knowing exactly what needs to get done helps me to actually sit down and do it!

I setup my kanban board in my home office and because I have an outside job, I realized that I needed to add 3 additional slides. Each slide has one goal and a table for tasks for 30/60/90 days. I could write all the tasks in my Rhodia Goalbook bullet journal but it's easier for me to print the tasks and put it in my writing big Happy Planner that I take to work with me. Thank you again for this video. I'm getting a boatload of tasks done in just a few days.

Watched this back in March, as a passive observer. It's now November and I watched your writing retreat video couple days ago. I'm now getting off my a$$ and making my Kanban board for December (was just using a calendar/schedular) and then starting fresh w/ the 90 day goals for 1st quarter 2019. Making 2019 my year to do great things. Currently rewatching this...your advice is timeless.

So excited that I found you last week!!! Your channel is perfect for me. I’m a huge planner/goal setter and I decided that 2019 was the year I would finally publish my first novel.

I look forward to watching more of your videos!!! Happy New Years!!!

LOVE this: "Writing the books and putting the books out is the #1 thing that actually makes me money and grows my career" - Sarra Cannon. I try to remember this phrase when I start to get distracted with all the other tasks that are writing-adjacent, but not actually writing. It's easy to go down a rabbit hole learning about facebook ads, or how to code a wordpress site, when I should be writing.

@craftingmamaberne3776 5 лет назад

OMG 😱. This is freaking awesome. I've struggled for years trying to come up with ideas on how to get things organised so I know where I'm at in planning and doing all things in my life. I suffer with very bad memory problems and have recently turned to planners and this is starting to help me try and keep on top of things and to remember what needs doing but this what you have set up here looks bloody awesome. I absolutely love the idea of the system you have set up and I will definitely be giving this a go. Thank you also for explaining it in detail. I didn't think I would be able to understand it as you started explaining and thought I may need to watch again. As I got further into the video it all just sort of clicked into place and became something that really appealed to me. I will definitely be trying this so thank you so much for sharing and also for explaining it in detail 😊. Also I just downloaded your books and look forward to reading them as they are the genre I like.

@MsChicoro 5 лет назад

I'm glad to hear that you too found that a personal assistant is not always necessary. How do you track the items that are not placed on your 90 day plan or Quarter plan? Where do you keep that information? I am a kinesthetic and visual learner. Your Kanban board interpretation example is something that I could see myself doing. I find most planning people do to be too overwhelming and minutia for the sake of minutia. But what you have here is logical and practical and something that I can see myself implementing because it is so useful. I love bright colors and I like detailed planning and touching and moving stuff. Great, great planning and organization video! It's just so very helpful. Thank you!

I've tried both of their systems (all based on the 90 day idea, drilling down to weekly), but this is a much easier way to implement those strategies (and kinda in your face too - which helps!
