3 Things: Focus & Discipline
Ruthless prioritization. Do the 3 most important things. Ignore the rest.
Your to-do list is making you anxious.
The modern task manager is a trap. It is an infinite scroll of guilt. You add 20 items, you complete 5, and you go to bed feeling like a failure. You aren't productive; you are just busy.
3 Things is not a place to dump your brain. It is a tool to sharpen it. We built this app on a simple, brutal truth: You cannot do everything. But you can do the 3 most important things. This is your daily contract with yourself.
THE PHILOSOPHY
Based on the Ivy Lee Method and Essentialism. If everything is a priority, nothing is. Three slots force you to separate the busy work from your life's work.
HOW IT WORKS
- Plan: Every morning, define your 3 non-negotiables.
- Focus: Work on these tasks single-mindedly.
- Execute: Check them off for the dopamine hit.
- Repeat: Build a streak of days you actually finish.

WHY "LIMITS" ARE A FEATURE
You will want to add a 4th item. We won't let you. Limitation creates focus; by blocking noise, you stay on the signal.
Stop managing. Start finishing.
