Hold Yourself Accountable
If you’re working solo with lots of clients and many projects, usually the last projects that you do are your own. If you’re as bad at holding yourself accountable as I am, perhaps you need a little email intervention.
iDoneThis is a handy little service that helps you and/or your team stay productive by asking users one simple question each day: “What’d you get done today?” It’s like having a virtual accountability partner.
Even though the site is designed with teams in mind, it’s also great for the individual user. Simply reply to an evening email reminder with what you did that day. The email is sent automatically from the service — you never have to worry about remembering to send the email. However, you do get to set the time that the email is sent. The next day, get a digest with what you/everyone on the team got done. This gives each member the chance to see who’s done what and provide feedback, or just to make you feel as though you accomplished something, if you don’t have a team.
iPhone users can download an app, and you can add it to Chrome and use it on the Mac. On both the web site and the app, you can view your calendar and see the “dones” accomplished for the previous week, month or year.
The personal version is free of charge. If you have a team, you can add team members for $5/month. And, you can try it out with a free, 30-day trial.
