Capacity Planner - Know Your Bandwidth, Set Better Boundaries
$9
The Capacity Planner is a simple tool to see, in about five minutes, exactly how much room you have before you say yes to something new.
Maybe you can relate. A client asks for one more thing. A friend wants to refer someone. An idea comes in that sounds too good to pass up. And you say yes, because you always find a way to make it work. Except you're not always sure you have room. You're guessing. And guessing about your own capacity is how a full calendar turns into feeling maxed out and pushing important projects to the next month.
What it is: The Capacity Planner is a Google Sheet built to answer one question honestly: do I have room for this, or not. You put in your real hours, your current commitments, and the number of hours you’d like to work every month. No spreadsheet skills required or formulas to build yourself. Open it, follow the Start Here tab, and see where you stand.
Numbering your days isn't a productivity hack, it's a purposeful way to steward the time God’s given you. "Teach us to number our days, that we may get a heart of wisdom" (Psalm 90:12).
God isn't asking you to overextend yourself to prove you're faithful. He's asking you to steward well what He's actually given you, and when your schedule is already full, that starts with being intentional about what changes He may be asking you to make.
What's inside: the Sheet with pre-built formulas, the Companion Guide, and a 5 minute video walkthrough so you can use the system well and make it your own.
Who this is for: This is for you if you run your own business, you're good at saying yes, and you want one honest, simple way to check your own bandwidth before you commit to more. If you're building with intention and want your yes to mean something, this is for you.

No. The formulas are already built. You fill in a few numbers, follow the Start Here tab, and it does the rest. The video walkthrough covers the whole thing in under 5 minutes.
