From an observation to a change
01

Pattern · Afternoon calls interrupt focused work

02

Before · Calls throughout the day

03

Now · Calls after lunch, writing in the morning

Illustrative example

01

Notice a recurring pattern

Capture something you’ve seen more than once. A short title can be enough. Add a little more detail when it helps explain the situation.

02

Keep observations easy to find

Assign a category and use search to revisit your notes. Write the observation while it’s fresh, even if you haven’t decided what to do.

03

Record a change as a shift

Give the change a title, then describe Before and Now. This keeps the decision specific enough to revisit later.

04

Connect reflection with your next plan

Read your observations when planning the week. Choose an adjustment you can put into practice, such as leaving gaps between calls.

Your questions, answered

Does the app detect patterns for me?

You write the observations yourself. Patterns is a place to record what you notice, rather than an automated analysis of your behaviour.

Do Shifts automatically change my schedule?

No. Shifts records the changes you describe. Make any scheduling adjustments in your planner.
