How Watership Planner Can Help You

Why planning is necessary for success in a competitive digital age and how Watership Planner gives you the advantages needed to get ahead


About Watership Planner

It’s a system that reorganizes itself based on what is currently happening in your life in real time. It is designed with interruptions, changing priorities and estimation slips at its foundation. You no longer have to use other planners that force you to tediously move tasks around manually when your schedule changes. Just set a list of things that need to be accomplished and let the software keep up with you. With just a glance you can estimate when any given task will be finished. Imagine the sense of urgency and motivation you will feel when you have a scoreboard updating itself with every second of your progress.

It’s a system that allows you to review your progress, to leave a trail of what you’ve accomplished. Find out where your time is going and within weeks optimize your days to cut out unimportant and trivial tasks so you can spend your time doing the most important things in life. Work less and make a bigger impact at the same time.

It’s a system that allows you to build detailed plans for your major projects and goals. You’ll know what you have to do each day to move your goal along. Prioritize and focus clearly on what needs to be done next without having to keep track of paper based charts that are rigid and worthless when the first slip or change occurs, or worse, trying to juggle these tasks in your head.

Why is Planning Necessary?

Never before has a planner been more essential to success. Our lives are increasingly being run by a never-ending flow of information and in this age those who can manage information will be the most successful. Technology research firm IDC determined that the world generated 161 exabytes of information in 2006, or three million times the information in all the books ever written.

Do you think you can be effective in your life by reacting to events as they come up? Do you think that you can maintain priorities and schedules in your head or using antiquated paper based programs in this current age? You have to make important discussions all day, deciding what gets attention, what is important, what needs to be done now, and what can wait. The more information you have, the more effective you will be and Watership delivers all the information you need in a clear uncluttered presentation. No more switching between programs and pieces of paper, it’s all in one place. Now you can offload the burden of scheduling and focus on the problem at hand.

How Does Watership Planner Help with Procrastination?

It has been reported that the average American worker admits to wasting 2.07 hours a day, not including lunch. Yet procrastination stems more from a lack of unclear goals than a lack of willpower or discipline. Procrastination is usually caused by vague and unclear instructions of what to do next. When the subconscious doesn’t have clear instructions of what to do next it will begin to work through the possibilities of what to do next. During this time you may become aware of a feeling of being overwhelmed, this is because you are running through an endless list of possibilities.

Eventually you will almost always arrive at what is easy and fun, rather than what is necessary for success.
When you write down your goals and tasks, the cycle of procrastination is broken. When you create focus by creating a list of instructions for yourself the subconscious is instantly limited to a smaller set of possibilities all pertaining to the task at hand. The current task has drawn all the attention of your subconscious. In this state, it is very easy to feel energized and motivated.
