I’m a proud Evernote user and Evernote Certified Consultant. I too once was mystified by it until my friend and client @cassmetz taught me how to use it.

If I still had this file cart in my possession I would have done a video to explain a novel way I used it recently. I don't, so picture this:

How am I such a big fan of author Cal Newport and only just discovering his podcast now? His books include Deep Work, A World Without Email, and Digital Minimalism.

Our "Covid corner" mini-makeover was recently featured in The Washington Post! About a year ago we put up a shelf that I had bought years ago from an antique shop in VA and promptly buried it under the most unsightly collection of Covid paraphernalia.

To-do lists are emotional little things. They are so much more than meets the eye - and you know this by how they make you feel when they get messy, scribbled-on, tattered, or lost. I've noticed that my clients have a lot of gunk in their heads about what a to-do list should look like, as well as excuses for why theirs a crazy-maker.

People work off of lists that are WAY too long. Now wonder when you sit down with a few precious minutes or hours, you get scrambled, stressed, and turn to the fast tasks with little reward. The big, satisfying, lucrative tasks that make you proud of yourself and move you forward get lost and don’t get done.
