There’s nothing like a real person to help you get organized and stick to your plans. If you struggle with procrastination, ADHD, or executive functioning (EF), we can help you build the productivity habit of your dreams.
let's talk!The myth of the "happy procrastinator" says that some people don't mind missing deadlines and opportunities. The truth is that ADHD, executive functioning problems, and procrastination are involuntary, and come with a host of painful feelings, thoughts, and beliefs.
We know a secret that all the do-it-yourself apps ignore: the way out of procrastination is the human connection. Procrastinators are almost always alone in their struggle. But people are built to connect. That's why the coach-client relationship is at the heart of what we do.
Our coaches are able to help you stay organized precisely because they're using the best and most secure modern productivity tools.
Video. Phone. Chat. Text. Email. Calendar, task tracking software. We manage them for you, but as your productivity habit grows, you take over.
We offer a free 30-minute phone or video meeting where our intake specialist will listen to your problem and suggest the coach and plan that's right for your.
In your first meeting you'll begin building the foundation of a productivity habit: regular, scheduled, agenda-driven meetings in which you and your coach clarify your work for the day, week, month, and year.
Goals are the big-picture accomplishments you want for yourself: an A in a class, a promotion at work, an exercise habit, an event planned, and so on. Goals need to be broken down into subgoals, and subgoals into bite-sized tasks.
Tasks — the bite-sized chunks that are the steps towards subgoals and goals — go on a shared calendar with your coach. Now you both know what needs to be done when!
The heart and soul of Slothzero is our Kickstart service. We will call, text, or video chat you when you need to begin your work and then nudge you to start, persist, and finish. This is where the magic happens!
In your weekly status report your coach will summarize your successes and misses, and identify tasks and skills to build for the next week. Share this summary, plus unlimited chat, with your allies (friends, parents, therapist) in a private team space!
Now that you've done it once... it's time to do it again! As the weeks go by, you'll get into a rhythm of planning and execution, and steadily build a productivity habit. When you're ready to do it on your own, we say goodbye — but are always here when you need us!
Whether you're a student or an aspiring author, managing a household or a business, planning a vacation or a wedding, we can help you define your goals, break them down into doable tasks on a calendar, and finally hold you accountable to your own timeline, until you've reached your destination.
Sometimes a test case can explain things better than an in-principle description. Here are some lightly fictionalized case studies (build out of combinations of clients, with the identifying details changed):
