Streamline your Workflowy Timeline with the “Training Wheels” extension

Over the years, thousands of WorkFlowy users have streamlined their lives using the WorkFlowy Timeline method. The system is as simple as it gets — yet it’s underpinned by a modus operandi (a philosophy, really) powerful enough to reduce anxiety, stress and task overwhelm from day one.

Give it a try it and tell me if it’s not so.

The core mantra that maintains the system is to push everything to the next logical, reasonable, or opportune time on your Timeline — which allows everything to surface at exactly the right time. It’s a system that makes it literally impossible for things to fall through the cracks. It’s a system that let’s you rest easy, because it’s one you can trust.

The Timeline method helps you align your life with time itself.

The Training Wheels extension

Today I’m sharing a tool that makes the moving parts of maintaining your WorkFlowy Timeline easier and more automated than ever: a Chrome extension called Timeline Training Wheels (which you can also use on Opera, Edge, Vivaldi, Brave…).

The Training Wheels extension is an overlay that gives you a more “traditional” calendar and daily planner view right inside WorkFlowy. It’s a different way of seeing your Timeline — especially for those who are just starting out.

Timeline Training Wheels helps you to effortlessly:

The life cycle of an extension

You don’t need this extension to create and maintain a timeline in WorkFlowy. It’s simply a helper tool… and ideally, anything useful that it offers would be great to eventually have in WorkFlowy itself. In fact, the team is currently working on a calendar implementation, which you’ll hear more about in the coming days and weeks.

So… give the extension a try and then give us your feedback. Pop them in the comments below this post, in this Slack thread (Slack invite link), or in our Discourse forum.
