Why BIGS

I tried every planner and app out there. They all had too many features. I'd get lost in the details, and somewhere along the way I'd lose my sense of north.

So I made the simplest thing I could: one big board on my wall, with six rows. Day, Week, Month, Year, Decade, Life.

It changed how I work. Every small task now has a reason. When I write something under Day, I can see the Year and the Life it belongs to. And on the first of every month, I stand back, zoom out, and check I'm still heading the right way.

I'm a filmmaker and photographer, so stepping back to see the whole frame is how I think. Charlie Chaplin said it best: "Life is a tragedy when seen in close-up, but a comedy in long-shot." Most of what stresses us out today looks different from further away.

BIGS is for people who dream big. The house, the studio, the trip, the life you keep talking about. Big dreams don't happen in one day, but they do happen one day at a time. BIGS keeps the dream on the wall and today's step right underneath it.

It's that board, made for you. Big, calm, and simple enough to actually use. I hope it helps you keep your BIGS in sight, from today to your whole life.

BIGS dreams, baby.
