A course by Ani Castro
Ani Castro is an expert in mindful productivity and time management. She's the founder and CEO of Tengo Planes, a business project that allows her to share her passion for goals, planning, and organization with anyone who wants to make the most of their time. She is also a consultant for entrepreneurs and business owners in Mexico.
She began her journey into entrepreneurship one year after earning her degree in graphic and advertising design. It wasn't long before idea overload and the lack of planning and organization started to take its toll, eventually leading to burnout. Thanks to this experience, she realized that balance is the key to success and discovered that action plans are the perfect tool for pinning down and developing an idea.

Me encanta este curso. Lo he visto como 5 veces. Tengo TDA y la estructura no suele ser lo mío, pero este curso me ha ayudado muchísimo a organizarme y a cumplir todo lo que me propongo. De verdad lo recomiendo muchísimo
Teniendo TDA me ayuda un mundo esto
Me pareció muy bonito curso y con información de utilidad. La explicación es muy clara y me resultó inspirador. Muchas gracias!
Thank you for making the printed resources available in English (and Portuguese and Spanish). I've taken other courses before where this was not the case and using the files was very difficult. So glad I could participate in this course more fully! Little things like this make a big difference!
