The PLAN: Manage Your Time Like a Lazy Genius

Description

Let me tell you, The PLAN by Kendra Adachi made me rethink the way I handle my time. It’s not about squeezing more into your day or following some strict schedule that leaves no room for fun. Instead, it’s about figuring out what actually matters to you and creating a plan that works with your life, not against it. It feels like chatting with a friend who’s great at simplifying chaos, and honestly, who doesn’t need that?

Why should you read it?

If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by your to-do list or frustrated because there’s never enough time for the things you care about, this book is for you. Adachi’s whole approach is about working smarter, not harder, and being kind to yourself along the way. It’s not a one-size-fits-all solution—it’s more like a toolkit to help you build a routine that fits your priorities.

What I learned:

One of the biggest lessons for me was learning how to identify what matters most. Adachi breaks it down so simply—focus on the tasks that bring value to your life and let go of the ones that don’t. I stopped trying to do everything and started focusing on what I really care about, and it’s made such a difference.

Another big takeaway was her concept of “naming what matters.” It sounds small, but when you’re clear about what you want, it becomes so much easier to plan your time around it. For example, instead of cramming every evening with chores, I set aside a couple of nights a week just for family time, guilt-free.

Adachi also emphasizes the power of routines but in a way that feels freeing, not restrictive. She showed me how even small, consistent habits—like prepping my morning coffee the night before—can create more mental space for the things I love.

Final thoughts:

This book isn’t about doing more—it’s about doing what’s right for you. Kendra Adachi’s approach is so refreshing because it’s realistic and encouraging. If you’ve been looking for a way to reclaim your time without feeling overwhelmed, The PLAN is like a little hug for your schedule.
