How a 3 per day task management system helped me understand when I work best — and stop working Fridays. App + Notion template in the description.

Daily Three is a task journaling system built around one rule: pick exactly 3 tasks each morning, check in at midday, and review at the end of the day.

Over time, your own archive shows you when you work best and why — so you can structure your schedule around your actual peak hours. I built a native iOS app for this and a Notion template if you prefer that!
