The first in a long line of new releases we plan to deliver over the next few months was built in response to our most popular request:  mobile support for iPhone, Android, and iPad.

Today we bring you the Wimiki Mobile.  (Available for Pro and Elite accounts.)

It is essentially precisely the same as Wimiki for Mac and Windows, but you get to carry it around with you on your phone.

• Unlimited “reminders” to help you keep up on your healthy habits.
• Unlimited customizable ”routines” to maximize your potential productivity.
• Your Daily Targets list on your phone.
• Your Dream Catcher on your phone.

Here’s one of the things it doesn’t bring to your phone:  Start My Day.  Unless of course you want to access it through your phone’s browser which you always can. Because Start My Day is evolving so quickly, it was not wise for us to include it in the context of a mobile app.  In the future we’ll be making all of our features easier and quicker to access on your phone’s browser.

What else is next?

• A massive collection of “little” convenience and power enhancements.
• A much better interface.
• New features you request.  (those with the highest votes are most likely to get attention)
• Something really really big.
• Much more …

As always, we’re looking forward to your feedback.

More than a prioritization method, it’s almost a way of life.  It’s all about choosing “thing to do” that are the best combination of high impact and minimal effort.  Of course that’s the most obvious best choice, but very few of us act on this dictum.

The HIME method forces you to make intelligent decisions about “what’s next.”

You simply rate your list of “stuff to do” by impact and ease.  Then, you multiply the two numbers together and there’s your HIME score.

Then, to decide what to work on first, simply pick the item with the highest score.

Simple.  Elegant.  Crazy effective.

Months ago we gave everyone a spreadsheet to automate this process, but you weren’t satisfied with that and neither were we.  Now you can use HIME, and two other prioritization methods, right inside Start My Day.

The new “Prioritize” module inside Start My Day (available for Simpleology Elite account holders) allows you to end Start My Day with your choice of one of the following three prioritization tactics.

Free Form

As the name suggests, this method allows you to drag and right-click-sort your targets in whatever order you see fit.

HIME

This is my personal favorite and the favorite of everyone here …

Use our convenient slider to select the impact score and the ease score.  Then click “sort” and your list will be sorted by HIME score instantly.

Can it get any easier?

Big Rock / Little Rock

Some productivity gurus say “start your day with the hard stuff” (like Brian Tracy’s Eat That Frog method).  Some say “do the easy stuff first.”

Who’s right?

Personally, I think neither – that’s why I invented HIME.  But some folks swear by these two methods and we want to make life easy for them, too.  You simply rank each Target by difficulty and then choose whether you want to sort the hard stuff (“big rocks”) or easy stuff (“little rocks”) first.

Easy.

Remember, if you don’t have a Simpleology Elite account, don’t worry.  That’s why we have a 30 Day Free Trial.   If you are not getting at least 10 times your monthly investment back (or if you’re not happy for any reason), just contact our Customer Care team and cancel.    Easy.  (Are you seeing a theme here?)

I just shot a casual screen capture video to demonstrate them and also show you what I think is the most scientific prioritization method around. (I’ll put it head-to-head against the three most common prioritization methods in use today.)

After you watch the video, be sure to post your questions in the comments below.

(watch in youtube at full screen and high-res for best results)

And here’s the HI-ME Prioritization Tool (MS Excel file) for you to play with.

Oh, and one thing I forgot to mention in the video … Try this.  Right click on a target and then select “move to Mental Lock box w/ Date.”  This allows you to instantly defer something to later with a built-in reminder.  On the date you set, it will pop back up when you do Start My Day.
