A word from Charlie Gilkey, founder of Productive Flourishing.
As my clients and I explored ways to improve their productive output and tap into their greatest work, we tried TONS of planners. Calendar-based planners. Method-based planners. Digital planners. Paper-only planners.
What we discovered was that most work planners share the same fundamental problem: They’re built on a way of thinking about time that simply doesn’t apply to project-based work. You already have a calendar for your appointments, and a clock to help you get to them on time. You don’t need a new calendar or clock.
What you need is a new way of approaching your projects that allows you to be flexible with your schedule, but rock-solid with your goals. When I realized this, I set about creating the first Momentum Planners: a set of practical, project-focused planners that don’t rely on rigid hourly schedules or complicated bullet journaling. They’re perfect for helping you figure out what needs to get done — and then doing it.
Why the Momentum Planners work so well is that they're more than just pretty planners — they're the crystallization of planning, project management, and creativity principles that help people focus on what matters most. We created the Momentum Planning e-Course to teach the fundamentals that the Momentum Planners guide you to use. The e-course is a set of 15 lessons, ranging from basic to advanced, that perfectly complements the planners to help you reach new heights of productivity.
Hi there. I'm Charlie Gilkey, founder of Productive Flourishing and creator of the Momentum Planning approach. I'm also a pretty fun guy to eat burritos with (or so I’ve heard).
You might already know the story of what led me to start creating the Momentum Planners. But just in case you don’t, here’s what happened…
I’ve been working with people whose success depends on turning ideas into finished projects and demonstrable results for years — leaders, entrepreneurs, artists, you name it — AKA people like you.
