The Momentum Planner: Designed to Match How You Work

A Planner Designed

to Match How You Work

Some planners enforce a rigid structure that doesn’t fit the way you work. Productive Flourishing’s Momentum Planner is different, guiding you toward a planning method that matches your lifestyle and work needs. Now available in our printed, bound version, use the planner to maximize your productivity and move the things that matter from in-progress to done.

Never Look for Another Planner Again

Our Momentum Planner builds on years of experience helping creatives, entrepreneurs, freelancers, teachers, small business owners, and students reach their goals and dreams. Rather than only keeping track of appointments and meetings, this planner channels your creativity, expertise, and passion toward worthwhile pursuits.

Here’s how the planner works:

Identify your big goals and projects

Break projects into daily, weekly, quarterly, and monthly action items

Plan when to spend time on action items

Track progress on goals and projects

"These planners are fantastic for folks who work by project/ task rather than hour by hour. And I love being able to break projects down from the big annual picture down to quarterly, monthly, weekly, daily and to the time when I work best. Absolute genius." — Laurie Huff, Plannerisms

A Word from Charlie Gilkey, Founder of Productive Flourishing

A lot of the thought processes that fueled the Momentum Planner Digital Pack went into our printed, bound version. I didn’t want to create yet-another glorified calendar or productivity tool. Rather, I desired to create a ready-made tool that would store people’s ideas, goals, and to-dos.

My clients wanted the same thing. Their success depended, then and now, on converting ideas into finished projects and demonstrable results. For them, the traditional planner didn’t get the job done.

It isn’t that they couldn’t plan; in fact, my experience shows that creative people, a group that includes teachers, students, startup founders, artists, et cetera, thrive when they plan their creativity. But when the standard tools don’t work for them, they begin to believe planners and planning aren’t for them.

That isn’t true.

Creative people — I call them Creative Giants — simply need planning tools and methods that work for them, instead of against them.

Such products would aid with not only time and project management but also scheduling their creative work during peak productive times.

Since I couldn’t find a product on the market that accomplished those things, I designed my own, the very first Momentum Planner. I then let friends and Productive Flourishing readers try it out. Their feedback led to the Momentum Planner Digital Pack and complementary Momentum Planning email courses available today.

We’ve since adapted the digital planners into this beautiful, printed version because writing things by hand cements ideas and goals in the mind. It also ignites heightened productivity and potential. It does that, not by telling Creative Giants to cross more things off the to-do list, but by encouraging them to focus and stay on track with the projects and goals that matter to them.

"I think I might be in love with these planners...what a great start to the year, and instead of the usual back-to-work-anxiety that swells up inside of me at night, this week I have gone to bed at the end of the day with a sense of calm. Whenever I think of the many things on my to-do list and the looming deadlines at work (not to mention my own business ideas!), I just simply think about my planner and how I’ve already scheduled “that thing” for “then”. Knowing it all has a place allows me to let it go and mercifully fall asleep without the quickening heartbeat that usually kicks me back into wakefulness and keeps me up all night!" — Mhairi M.

"I have been using your planner for about two weeks, and my mind is blown! Traditional planners don't work for me and my productivity lately has been lacking. I'm a list maker. These are perfect for me, work with my needs, and productivity has skyrocketed!" – Nicole Gennetta

How Other Creative Giants Feel About The Momentum Planner

One of my favorite things this year, hands down, is my Momentum Planner from Productive Flourishing!

“I have purchased TONS of planners in the past, but none have ever kept me on track like this one. The secret? With the yearly, quarterly, monthly, weekly, and daily planning pages, it gives you clarity and doesn’t allow you to take on more projects than you can actually handle. Charlie Gilkey and his team even have a FREE Momentum Planning email course if you really want to learn the ins and outs of his method.” @LivingTheCozyLife

“I’m the most plan-y planner there is, and now I’m goal-setting to set myself up for success.”

@CoffeeWithKristi

“Raise your hand if you want your year to be planned and full of momentum! This is my tool of choice.”

@CaraChace

Oh, Momentum Planner, how I love thee!

"I’ve been goal-oriented and analytical my entire life, but I’ve historically favored post-its and paper over traditional planners – until this year.

I’ve never used a planner for work, but I decided to take a chance on the Momentum Planner, and it is literally EVERYTHING I could want in a work-life planner. When it comes to my work, I tend to deep-dive into projects and deadlines, and it keeps me laser focused by drilling down objectives and daily action plans... and trust me when I say that they’ve thought of every detail.“ @JessicaStrohm

Why should I buy your planners when you offer some for free?

You can plan monthly with our free planners, but to really do your best work, you’ll want to pull your Big Ideas together with your To-Do list. Our quarterly and yearly planners enable you to do that — and to plan more than a month ahead. We also include our Basic and Advanced Momentum Planning email courses with your purchase. These courses will teach you the actual planning method behind our planner system so you can be successful when using our planners.

How long will it take to learn the planning system?

If you don’t have time to plan, you don’t have time to not plan. You have to make time to make time just like you have to have money to make money.

Our planners are laid out simply and intuitively, so that after a few projects, you’ll be a pro planner. In addition to creating the planners to be intuitive, we include our Basic and Advanced Momentum Planning email courses with every purchase. These courses lay out our planning method over about 12 weeks (and if you've got a hankering for finishing it sooner than that, we have an option to view the whole course all at once!).

Why do the planners provide room for only five projects per day?

How is this better than DayRunner or Franklin-Covey? Other planners never work for me.

How do I integrate a visual planner into the online tools I already use? I use Asana, Basecamp, Trello, Wunderlist...

I like the idea of the planners, but I’d like them in #RandomSize. Will you make special versions for me or share the working files with me?

Why aren’t your planners prettier?

After some experimentation, we found that our many-hat-wearing, multiple-idea-generating customers got their best results when we kept our planners clean, simple, and print-friendly.

Additionally, many customers in professional settings prefer to use a planner that helps them be creative and effective without making them stand out. It’s hard for executives to have planners with flowers and hearts sitting on their desks.

Do you offer support with the planners? What if I get stuck or have a question?

Will you have access to my financial information?
