From Academic Struggle to Productivity Company: The Birth of The Efficiency Formula

A Founder's Story

In the world of productivity tools, finding a planner that actually works can feel like searching for a needle in a haystack. As the founder of The Efficiency Formula, I've been there. Let me take you on a journey that led to the creation of a planner that's changing the game for ambitious minds with shit to do.

The Struggle is Real

Picture this: late nights, an overflowing desk, and a constant feeling of being overwhelmed. That was me during my master's thesis. As a self-proclaimed planner enthusiast, I scoured the internet for the perfect tool to structure my days efficiently. But everything I found was either lacking substance, overly cutesy, or packed with pseudoscience that just didn't cut it. Sound familiar? I thought so.

The Deep Dive

Frustrated but curious, I decided to take matters into my own hands. I delved deep into academic research on productivity, habit-forming, and achievement. What I discovered was eye-opening: none of the popular planners out there were actually based on proven, effective methods. This realization sparked a mission. What if I could create a planner that bridged the gap between cutting-edge research and practical, everyday use?

From Personal Project to Productivity Company

What began as a quest to create a simple PDF for my own use unexpectedly blossomed into something much bigger. By delving into the science, I came away the key findings and methods from 35 leading academics and specialists in fields ranging from cognitive psychology to organizational behavior. I distilled complex theories into actionable strategies that could be incorporated into a daily planning system. The result? The Efficiency Formula – a planner designed not just for filling out pages, but for genuinely supporting ambitious minds in enhancing their lives.
