👋 Hey PH fam, Amar here! I’ve been experimenting with focus for a while now. Like many of you, I started with the Pomodoro timer — 25 minutes on, 5 minutes off. It worked… until it didn’t. I wanted longer stretches of flow, a way to track my progress, and a tool that could actually help me improve. I looked everywhere for a focus tracker, but all I found were Pomodoro apps. And honestly? Pomodoro sucks once you’re trying to get into deep work. There was nothing that helped me gradually build my focus session by session. So, I set myself a challenge: track my focus and add just 5 minutes each day. When I couldn’t find a tool to support it — I built my own. That became the Deep Work Tracker — Notion Template for Focus & Productivity. Unlike stopwatch widgets or browser timers (that reset the second you refresh the page 😤), this lives inside your Notion system — so your focus logs, progress, and reflections are always saved and easy to track. It’s built around the idea of “The One Thing,” so you’re not just working longer, but on what truly matters. 🎯 It’s gamified with streaks, achievements, and even a Focus Forest 🌳 to keep motivation alive. It’s fully customizable, ADHD-friendly ✅, and comes with sample data + a full video walkthrough so you can get started right away.
