Let’s be real:
Anyone can build a productivity system in theory.

But theory doesn’t help when you’re working 60 hours a week, haven’t seen your family properly in days, and your brain feels like a browser with 47 tabs open.

So here’s what matters most:

Has this system worked for real people—with real lives, real pressure, and real challenges?

Yes. Over and over again.

Here’s who I’ve worked with.
And what’s changed for them after bringing DROP into their world.

1. The Business Owner on the Edge of Burnout

She ran a growing agency. On paper, she was smashing it.

Inside? She was crumbling.

• 14-hour days
• Constant firefighting
• Client demands 24/7
• No clarity, no direction—just chaos

She was at breaking point, convinced she needed to work harder to catch up with the chaos.

I introduced DROP. We started simple:

• Dumped her to-do list and brain noise into one place
• Reviewed her priorities with brutal honesty
• Offloaded or delegated 40% of her weekly tasks
• Planned her week around energy, not effort

Within 4 weeks, she cut her working hours by 10–12 hours without losing a single client.

By week 8, she wasn’t just surviving—she was finally scaling on her terms.

2. The Contractor Who Thought “Productivity Systems” Weren’t for People Like Him

He was practical. Old school.
Didn’t see himself as a “systems” guy.

But he was exhausted. Missing quotes. Forgetting calls. Letting things slip. Waking up at 3am thinking, “Shit, I forgot to…”

He thought DROP would be too corporate, too rigid.

Until he saw how simple it was.

• No app required
• No buzzwords
• Just a weekly rhythm that gave him control

He now uses DROP on a whiteboard in his garage every Sunday night.

Quotes get done. Invoices get chased. He’s even carving out time to spend with his kids—and he says he finally feels in control.

3. The High-Achieving CEO Who Couldn’t Switch Off

She was scaling fast.
Big team. Big responsibilities. Big stress.

She didn’t need motivation—she needed boundaries.

She was working through lunch, checking emails at midnight, and trying to cram 30 hours into a 24-hour day.

DROP gave her the structure she was missing:

• A system for brain dumping without carrying it all
• A way to protect her time from constant interruptions
• Permission to plan less—and focus more

The result? She now works 4.5 days a week, her team is more empowered, and her evenings are screen-free.

She said, “It’s the first time in 10 years I’ve felt like work isn’t controlling me.”

4. The Neurodivergent Entrepreneur Who’d Tried Everything

Brilliant ideas.
Chaotic execution.
Started strong. Struggled to finish.

They’d tried Pomodoro, GTD, Notion, Trello, and every app you can think of.

DROP worked for one reason:

It wasn’t rigid. It was flexible enough to work with their brain, not against it.

We built their own version of DROP—on paper, not screen.
We customised the flow to work with their energy spikes.
We made “Review” more visual.
We broke “Plan” into two shorter sprints.

3 months in, they told me they’d had their most consistent quarter ever.

Not because they changed who they were.
Because they stopped trying to fit into a system that was never built for them.

5. The Small Business Owner Who Was “Fine” (Until He Wasn’t)

He wasn’t in crisis.
He wasn’t melting down.
He was just… running on autopilot.

Wake up. Work. Emails. Clients. Admin. Whiskey. Crash.

No thinking time. No real planning. No direction.

He said yes to everything. Couldn’t remember the last time he worked on his business instead of in it.

DROP gave him the space to think again:

• A moment every week to reflect
• A place to decide what actually mattered
• A structure to say “no” without guilt

Within 6 weeks, he’d hired his first VA and blocked out Friday afternoons for strategy.

He told me, “I didn’t realise how much I’d lost control until I got it back.”

DROP Doesn’t Just Work for One Type of Person

That’s the beauty of it.

It’s not just for high-performers.
It’s not just for neurodivergent minds.
It’s not just for burnout survivors.

It’s for:

• Founders
• Contractors
• Coaches
• Team leaders
• Parents
• Freelancers
• Side hustlers
• Full-time employees trying to stay sane

If your calendar is full but your life feels empty…
If your brain won’t switch off and your to-do list never ends…
If you’ve tried other systems and nothing sticks…

DROP will work for you—because it was built in the real world, for real lives.

What Kind of Results Do People See With DROP?

• Hours back in their week
• Reduced overwhelm and anxiety
• More focus and follow-through
• Greater control over time, energy, and priorities
• Space to think, plan, and breathe
• A rhythm they can actually sustain

This isn’t about doing more.
It’s about doing what matters—and letting the rest go.

---

Why Does DROP Work When Other Systems Don’t?

Because it’s not rigid.
It’s not preachy.
It doesn’t care when you wake up or how you colour-code your calendar.

It cares about clarity, control, and consistency.

And it gives you all three—without making you feel like you’ve failed if you miss a day.

DROP resets every week.
You don’t fall off track. You just get back into rhythm.

Want the Same Results These People Got?

You don’t need a coach.
You don’t need more willpower.
You need a system that holds you—not breaks you.

• Buy the book – Control Your Time or Stay Stuck: You Choose
• Join the DROP System training and finally feel like your time is yours again.

Because if these people could make it work—and they did—you can too.
