What’s an Every Day Page?
It’s basically a Now page on steroids. If you don’t know what is a Now page let me give you a brief introduction (too many terms, right?):
A Now page is a place on someone’s website where they list their long-term goals and tasks. It’s like a public declaration of your priorities. A small place online to remind yourself what you need to do and towards where you need to focus your efforts. It’s the perfect place when you’re feeling unfocused, confused, lost. You can check the detailed explanation of a Now Page on Derek Sivers’s website.
The Every Day Page it’s a bit different. A new spin, actually, of the Now page
The idea of The Every Day Page is similar to what we mentioned above. But the main idea is to have a stronger impact on your life.
To create your Every Day Page you need to do the following: list the tasks that you should do every-single-day to achieve something. Basically, the set of tasks that will help you improve in a specific area. The Every Day Page is like your own online accountability partner. This page will remind you every-single-day what you need to do. You can also check my detailed article about this: The Every Day Rule.
The Rules
The rules are super simple. Actually, there is only one rule:
- List the things you must do before you go to bed.
Here, if you didn’t understand, we’re speaking about things that will have a positive impact on your life.
Few Guidelines:
The idea behind the main idea, sort to say, is to set a goal and deconstruct it. The final outcome will be a set of daily tasks that have to be done before closing your eyes.
Two short examples:
- So, if you want to write a book, you will put writing as a task in your everyday to-do list;
- If you want to get fit, you will respectfully put exercising as a thing to do in your day.
You may be wondering: Ok, but shouldn’t I have a day for a sweet rest? Well, even though the answer may vary depending on the circumstances, my firm answer is No.
Do you want to write a book or do you want to rest? I look at things this way: Since I’m eating and sleeping every single day, I can spare at least 20 minutes of my day exercising. In addition, I’ve created a simple system for tracking your tasks during a single day. It’s called The Grid. It’s a simple process for tracking your time during the day.

Without further ado, world, this is the list of things I do every day:
My Every Day tasks:
- Teach my son at least one thing about life.
- Wake up at 05:00.
- Exercise.
- Write at least 1000 words.
- Eat less meat and more greens.
- Reflect on how I feel.
- Read at least one page of a book.
