The summer is slipping away from us, friends!
While I’m holding on for dear life since summer is my favorite season, I’d be remiss if I didn’t share this week’s amazing Cultivate What Matters semi-annual warehouse sale!
They always include some of their best products, making it a great way to try out something new that you’ve been eyeing for awhile or stock up on what you already love. The sale ends this Sunday, August 17th, at 11:59 PM eastern!
I’ve packed together my favorites from the sale below, and be sure to stay tuned afterwards for a few helpful tips for how to cultivate productivity for fall. I wanted this to be a post you could pin now and come back to later, even long after the sale ends. š
Grab your coffee (or fave beverage!) and let’s dive into this fun sale together!
Productivity Tools for Fall
There are 208 items included in this sale, but I did the work for you so you don’t have to endlessly scroll and we can hop straight to the very best deals! All but the very first photo belongs to Cultivate What Matters.
Refresh Brain Dump Journal $28 – This journal has easily become one of my favorite productivity tools! I was lucky enough to receive a collab for this item with Cultivate What Matters (you can check it out with this link!) and it’s been a part of my weekly routine ever since.
Carrie from Curly Crafty Mom loves her journal too and she does her brain dumps weekly, so I followed her lead and usually do mine on Mondays (unless it’s like this week and I’m behind!). This is such a steal for $28, but if you’re not attached to the beautiful gold-striped cover, the other two covers are cheaper – the covers are the only difference.
Goal-Setting Sticky Notes $3 – A set of four types of sticky notes to help you be more productive, along with a cute aesthetic!
Everyday Lined Notebooks $5 – These are beautifully made notebooks that will last and contain 60 lined pages. I love using notebooks to make running lists of things I need to do, want to buy, projects to work on, etc. All but one of these notebooks are on sale for $5, the one I linked is actually only $2!
Linen Journal in Rose $12 – This journal has the same lined pages as the everyday notebooks I just mentioned, but contains 74 pages and has a gorgeous casebound linen cover. It has a luxury look and feel. I bought this for my mom awhile back and she loves it still!
Blooms Pen Set $10 – I use these pens daily in my planners (yes, plural, haha!) and love them. They write SO smoothly and are just so pretty too. They are a fine-point black gel pen and you get four in this set. I highly recommend them and they are worth even the $15 they normally are, but always fun to save $5!
Today Is The Day Notepad $6 – I love a notepad, friends! I have at least three on my desk that I can see right now, there’s probably more than that honestly. I find them so handy to rip off sheets and then place those in my daily planner or if it’s a project I’m working on, in my monthly desk calendar. Then I can just scrap them as I’m done! This notepad in particular has one of my favorite things – a top three list for the day. I always put my top three items in my daily planner so I can stay focused on what’s most important. It also has a task list so you can break things down that need to be completed and a notes section.
If you prefer seeing your week at a glance, this Weekly Notepad $8 is also on sale. It has 50 sheets, boxes for each day of the week, a top three section, as well as a task list.
The Routines Workbook $12 – I haven’t tried this book personally, but have heard great things about it! I love Cultivate What Matters PowerSheets and the bulk of it is what I would consider a workbook for goals, same goes for the brain dump journal, and I love both of them! They have such an amazing way of piecing together information to help you become your most productive, happy self. So I bet this workbook would be no different!
You can use my code MAKELIFEMARVELOUS at checkout to take 10% off of $25 or more. This may only apply to regular-priced items, but I wanted to include it here in case you find some other fun things to add to your cart!
3 Tips for How to Be More Productive this Fall
Looking for some things that you can do right now to prepare for the fall season? I’m here to help!
- Give Your Goals a Seasonal Refresh: Just as the leaves begin to change color in fall, our goals usually need a little shift too! You can read my post for how to reset for fall here. Rather than focusing on where you think you should be, focus on exactly where your feet are planted. Then think of your desired goal(s) and make plans to bring those goals to life. Too often we give up on what we want because we think it’s too late in the year, but we still have time! Do what you can and you’ll see those results add up, friend! Likewise, if you have something on your list that no longer serves you well or you need a little extra time for something else, don’t be afraid to pivot and adjust your timeline, or toss it altogether.
- Create a Morning Routine That Works for You: I wrote an entire blog post about creating a morning routine that I’ll link here for you! The most important piece of advice I can give you in a nutshell is to make your morning serve you, not the other way around. Create a stable, repeatable routine that allows you to have a few moments to yourself and prepare for the day ahead. If you already have a good morning routine, check out my post on ways to elevate your morning routine!
- Plan Ahead of Time for Success: It can be very hard to keep up with all the things if you’re making most of your plans day-of. Choose a time each week to plan, jotting down anything important such as appointments, deadlines, errands, and things you want to stay on top of. Assign those things a space in a planner or calendar that you see everyday – it makes a huge difference! You can read my post on how to plan your best week yet here for more help!
That’s a wrap on this fun little post, sweet friends! I truly hope it helps you cultivate productivity for fall and make the most of the remainder of this year. It is zooming by! I can’t wait to hear your thoughts! If you’d like a deeper dive into how to be more productive this fall, please let me know in the comments and I can dedicate a post just for that topic.

This is such a practical and encouraging guide. I like how you combine tools and actionable tips. The product recommendations you provide make it easy to implement the advice, and the seasonal perspective on goals is very motivating. The focus on small, manageable steps like morning routines and weekly planning makes productivity feel attainable rather than overwhelming.
