Your three priorities, at eye level, not under the keyboard.
The problem it solves
The sticky note with today’s plan gets buried, and the plan goes with it.
What it is
A transparent acrylic panel that clips to the side of the monitor and holds sticky notes or a small list in the eye line.
Who it is for
Anyone who plans the day on paper and loses the paper by eleven.
How to use it so it sticks
One note, three priorities, replaced every morning. Nothing else goes on the board.
Who should skip it
If you keep your plan on a whiteboard or desk pad already, this duplicates it.
Verdict
Cheap and oddly motivating: the list looks at you until it is done.
