The one commonality between all my unproductive days was that I didn’t plan my day the night before. If you plan the day the night before, you’ll be amazed at how much your overall productivity skyrockets. If you have no clarity about what it is you’re trying to get done on any given day, you’ll be busy, but not productive. If you plan your days the night before you, you’ll not only get more done in less time. When you plan the day the night before, there’s no guesswork as to what you’ll be doing when you sit down to work in the morning. Finish each day by writing the five most important things you want to get done tomorrow and start each day by working those five things. You can also schedule those five things on your calendar.

I've always been a morning planner by default and wondered if planning in the evening is any better so I tried it out for a few days. The big surprise so far is that my mind works more effectively with a whole night to digest the next day's plan. I think this happens because I've subconsciously rehearsed how the day will play out. Planning out the next day acts a separator and gives me permission to end the current workday which makes the evening feel more restorative. I only found two compelling reasons to avoid evening planning, If your priorities can change abruptly because of a work or message you get overnight, then planning the night of can feel like wasted effort. Since I need to be responsive to colleagues and customers, I've adopted a hybrid approach, I plan out my day in the evening and finalize it in the morning to account for changes.

You do the day before matters just as much as what you do each morning. In fact, what you do the night before makes it much more likely that you’ll actually accomplish what you’re aiming to get done on any given day. If you plan the day the night before you’ll be amazed at how much your overall productivity skyrockets. If you plan your days the night before you, you’ll not only get more done in less time. When you plan the day the night before, there’s no guesswork as to what you’ll be doing when you sit down to work in the morning. The day I wrote this article, I actually put the 5 things I wanted to get done into my journaling software the night before. Finish each day by writing the 5 most important things you want to get done tomorrow and start each day by working those 5 things. But the failure has always been the result of poor planning the day before.
