A calendar planning feature in Morgen that allows users to create recurring time blocks for specific types of work or activities. Frames help establish consistent routines by blocking dedicated time for important work like deep work sessions, exercise, or learning, providing structure while maintaining flexibility in daily planning.
Frames in Morgen are recurring time blocks that users can create for specific tasks or types of work. This feature helps establish consistent routines by dedicating specific time periods to important activities, creating structure in your daily and weekly schedule.
A Frame is a recurring time block you set for specific tasks or activities. For example, you might create a Frame for "Deep Work" daily from 8:00 AM to 10:00 AM, or "Exercise" every weekday from 6:00 PM to 7:00 PM.
Frames repeat on a schedule you define (daily, specific weekdays, weekly, etc.), providing consistency without manual recreation.
Each Frame reserves specific calendar time for a particular type of work or activity, protecting that time from other commitments.
While Frames create structure, they can be adjusted or skipped as needed for individual days when circumstances change.
Frames appear on your calendar, providing a visual representation of your time commitments and helping you see patterns in how time is allocated.
Frames make it easy to build and maintain habits by creating consistent, predictable time blocks.
By pre-blocking time, Frames prevent other commitments from consuming time you've dedicated to important activities.
Frames for personal activities (exercise, family time, hobbies) help ensure these important areas don't get squeezed out by work demands.

Knowing you have dedicated time for specific types of work reduces anxiety and improves focus during those periods.
Frames provide a clear visual representation of how your time is allocated across different priorities.
Frames work alongside Morgen's AI planning features:

Traditional Recurring Events:
Identify the 3-5 most important activities that deserve consistent time allocation.
Don't create more Frames than you can realistically maintain. Quality over quantity.
Schedule cognitively demanding Frames (like deep work) during your peak productivity hours.
Don't fill every hour with Frames. Leave room for flexibility, spontaneity, and unexpected needs.
Periodically assess whether your Frames are serving you well and adjust as priorities evolve.
Use different colors for different types of Frames (work, personal, learning) for quick visual parsing.
Frames provide structure for time tracking:
Frames share similarities with:
Frames strike a balance between structure and flexibility, providing consistent time allocation for important activities while remaining adaptable to daily realities. They help prevent the common problem of important-but-not-urgent activities constantly getting pushed aside by more immediate demands.
