TTL method to beat procrastination
Free Notion template included
It’s easy to get overwhelmed with everything you have to do.
Here’s a method I use to help.

What does TTL stand for?
If you’ve used a to-do list before, try dividing your list into 3 sections:
Today
Tomorrow
Later
Every night, I put the next day’s tasks under “today.”
The next morning, I wake up and start checking things off my list, because it’s clearly outlined.
I don’t have to think about it.
But there’s one more thing I do to make this method more effective…
Break your tasks down into subtasks
I noticed I had “make YouTube video” on my list for a while.
It kept getting pushed to “tomorrow.”
And that’s because the task is too big and unclear.
As soon as I broke it down (write script → film → edit → upload), I made progress.
For example, I’d write a video script while walking to the gym.
Then, I’d get home and film.
And so on.
