Eat That Frog!

Your โ€œfrogโ€ is your most important task, the one you are most likely to procrastinate on if you donโ€™t do something about it.

If you have two important tasks, start your day with the biggest, hardest, and most important task first. Focus on completing it before you go to the next one....

Eat a Frog

Popularized in Brian Tracyโ€™s book Eat That Frog, the idea here is that you tackle the biggest, hardest, and least appealing task first thing every day, so you can move through the rest of the day knowing that the worst has already passed.

'Eat that Frog'

This is a productivity method developed by Brian Tracy.ย The 'frog' refers to theย most important and most impactful task you have to complete.

If you work on it first thing every morning, you'll be more productive and successful, and you'll reach your goals more quickly.

This app is LOADED with RELEVANT, HELPFUL, AND EDUCATIONAL material. It is creatively intellectual, yet minimal enough to not overstimulate and create a learning block. I am exceptionally impressed with this app!
