Better than a calendar
Calendars were not build for students because they don’t let you plan when you’ll get each task done. Shovel does.
To-do lists are broken
More than a to-do list
To-Do lists have a big flaw — they don’t consider how much time you need to get things done. Shovel does.

What is Timeboxing?
In a recent study, timeboxing was named the most useful productivity “hack” and it is how Bill Gates and Elon Musk organize their busy schedules.
Simply put, it means assigning individual tasks into your calendar for specific durations of time.
Benefits of Timeboxing
-
Single-Tasking: Opposite of Multi-Tasking will help you focus on one task at a time to ultimately accomplish more.
-
Prioritizing: By timeboxing when you’ll do each task, you naturally need to prioritize what you’ll do first.
-
Accountability: If something is on your calendar, you’re making an obligation to yourself that you’ll work on it at that time.
