🎯Why I Stopped Chasing Every New Tool — and Started Using Only the Best
Let’s be honest — we love new tools.
They promise speed, clarity, automation, ease. So we sign up. We test. We compare.
But somewhere along the way, I realized I wasn’t being more productive — I was just busy testing apps.
😵 When I Was Using 20+ Tools...
- My workflow was scattered
- I spent hours customizing dashboards I never used
- I was more tool-focused than content-focused
And it hit me: trying every new tool was my way of avoiding actual work.
💡 What I Did Differently
I paused everything and asked myself one question:
“What are the 3–5 tools I actually use every single week?”
Here’s what made the cut:
- Notion: My digital brain
- Google Docs: Writing & editing
- Canva: Visual content & templates
- Grammarly: Clarity & tone
- Google Analytics: Basic performance check
🎯 The Power of Using Only the Best
- ✔ More focus, less friction
- ✔ Less mental load
- ✔ Higher-quality output
The truth is: you don’t need the trendiest tools. You need reliable ones that fit your flow.
That’s what BestForNow is all about — just the tools worth using.
🧭 If You're Feeling Overwhelmed By Too Many Tools:
- Write down every app you’ve signed up for
- Mark the ones you actually use weekly
- Delete or pause the rest for 30 days
You’ll be amazed how much lighter (and faster) your process becomes.
