What is a Make Day?
A Make Day is a set-aside day for deep, creative focus. It’s a day of uninterrupted work and exploration—a playground for your ideas. It’s not packed with structure or meetings. It’s intentionally open, so you can flow, explore, and create without interruption. Whether you’re designing, writing, strategizing, or dreaming—Make Day is your space to build what only you can.

Why I Made This:
Managing time as a creative isn’t easy. Between admin tasks, meetings, and life’s demands, our most valuable work—our creative work—often gets pushed to the edges.
This worksheet helps you make space for what matters most: creating.
It’s built around one core idea: every creative needs a Make Day—
a day of uninterrupted work
a day to hit the playground
a day of flow
not too much structure besides exploring
This is your chance to get out of reactive mode and into creative momentum. The schedule helps you manage all the necessary tasks, yes—but more importantly, it helps you protect the space to make.
