How to Use The Focus Docket

Put the next block of work on the docket.

Step 01

Choose the work.

Select drafting, research, record review, filing preparation, or another focus category.

Step 02

Protect the time.

Choose a 25-minute Quick Docket, a 50-minute Deep Work session, or set your own duration.

Step 03

Park the interruptions.

Add unrelated tasks to the Distraction Docket instead of opening another tab.

Step 04

Take the recess.

Step away briefly before beginning the next block of focused legal work.

The goal is not to turn every minute into a productivity contest. The Focus Docket simply gives one important task a defined place in your workday.
