GET STUFF DONE

A community resource to help people simply get stuff done, where we can share our successes and encourage others to have positive results. Please note though we're not trained wellbeing therapists. We're just like you, trying to make ourselves happier, healthier and calmer one day at a time, sharing what we have learned so far.

Join the Get Stuff Done Challenge. One page a day, one win at a time.

If your brain feels like a browser with 23 tabs open (and at least three playing music), it might be time for a reset. You don’t need dramatic life overhaul. Just a gentle, easy to action plan to help you feel more clear-headed and in control.

Take the Get Stuff Done Challenge: a 7-day journal journey to declutter your thoughts, sharpen your focus, and create a little breathing room just using a notepad, sticky notes or scraps of paper you have lying around. You could even use the comments on this blog and share your actions with others.

No colour-coded systems. No pressure.
Just a pen, a notebook (we do recommend the Get Stuff Done Journal, naturally), and a few minutes a day.


🗓️ How It Works

Each day for the next 7 days, you’ll follow a short prompt.
Write, reflect, plan, breathe. That’s it.

You can do it first thing in the morning, before bed, during your tea break , whatever suits you.
No catch-up days. No guilt. Miss a day? Just carry on.

🧠 Day 1: Brain-Dump Bonanza
Empty your head. List every task, idea, reminder, and worry. Don’t organise it, just write it as it pops in to your head. If you remember something else later just add it.

🔍 Day 2: Spot the Priorities
Look back at your list. Highlight what actually matters this week. Choose three. That’s your focus.

☕ Day 3: Slow Morning Plan
Today, set your intention before checking your phone. Open your journal. Write one thing you want to do, it doesn’t have to be something you need to do. You just have to write something down and do it.

⛅ Day 4: Mental Clutter Check-In
What’s on your mind that doesn’t belong there? What are you overthinking or replaying? Write it down. Let it go (or make a plan for it). You could even write it down and then tear it up or shred it. I would say burn it but we don’t want to have responsibility for you burning your house down. 🔥🚒

📝 Day 5: One Small Win
Pick something ridiculously achievable, then just do it. Clean one drawer. Send that email. Water your plant. Feel smug about taking that little win.

💭 Day 6: What Do You Need Right Now?
Be honest. Do you need a nap? A hug? A decision made? Clarity often starts with naming what you actually need.

🌱 Day 7: Reflect + Reset
What’s shifted? What felt good? What’s still swirling around? Write one thing you want to carry forward into next week.


📓 Make It Yours

You can do this challenge in the Get Stuff Done Journal — it’s undated, unbossy, and designed for real life.
Use the daily page layouts to jot down your answers, map out your top three, or scribble a small win in the corner.

Don’t have one yet? Grab yours here and start whenever you like. One thing’s for sure, the journal won’t judge.


🎯 Final Thought

You don’t need a full reset.
You just need a few good pages, a few honest moments, and a little less noise in your mind.

Join the challenge. Clear your head. Get back to what matters, one little note at a time.
