Some projects are so big they stop you cold.
Too many moving parts. No obvious first step.
The whole thing keeps weighing on your mind, getting heavier every day you don't touch it.
The key is not more willpower.
You need a way to break the beast into pieces small enough to actually move.
Stack Magic
Tackle your biggest projects one itty bitty piece of paper at a time.
Self-paced video course | Lifetime access | $497
The cost of these unrealized projects?
The idea you were fired up about now fills you with dread.
The open loop that runs in the background of every single day.
The other good ideas you can't even start, because this one is hogging all the room in your head.
The fix is almost embarrassingly small:
Get every piece out of your head and onto its own little slip of paper. Then sort. Then stack. Then sequence. Suddenly the beast isn't a beast. It's an organized pile of doable pieces, in an order that finally makes sense.
That's The Stack. Everyone's favorite idea shaper technique.
Stack Magic is where I teach it to you in depth.
How I learned the magic:
In sixth grade, Mrs. Andrews taught us how to write a paper using index cards. I was already a library nerd. Anything resembling a card catalogue had me all a-flutter.
Then she blew my mind wide open:
"Wait, all I need to do is put one idea down on each card?
Then I'm going to sort them into piles that make paragraphs?
THEN I just order those paragraphs into a paper??
This paper WRITES ITSELF."
I LOVED it. And then, like an idiot, I promptly forgot it. All through middle school, high school, into college: no Stack Magic. Heck knows I could have used it.
When I rediscovered index cards late in college, I grabbed hold and never let go. This modular way of thinking with small pieces of paper is so central to my practice that I put it in my book, The Idea Shapers, and named it The Stack.
Out of 24 visual thinking concepts in the book, The Stack is the one people fall for hardest. Number one, most commented on, most instantly loved.
What makes The Stack so loveable?
It's the fastest way to shrink overwhelm.
It breaks the biggest projects into pieces you can actually do.
They're made with the simplest, cheapest materials.
Learn the principles once and you've got them for life.
Pocket-sized Stacks go everywhere you go.

- A book, paper, or other writing project.
- A workshop, class, or event to plan.
- A complex project with a lot of moving parts to wrangle.
