Based upon Brian Tracy's international best-selling book and procrastination killer, Eat That Frog!
The key to reaching high levels of performance and productivity is to develop the lifelong habit of tackling your major task first thing each morning. You must develop the routine of "Eating Your Frog" before you do anything else, and without taking too much time to think about it.
The Truth About Frogs
Mark Twain once said that if the first thing you do each morning is eat a live frog, you can go through the day with the satisfaction of knowing that it’s probably the worst thing you'll have to do all day long.
Your "frog" is your biggest, most important task. It's the one you are most likely to procrastinate on, even dread. Yet, it is also the one task that can have the greatest positive impact on your life and create positive results immediately.
With that in mind, "Eat That Frog,” the iPhone app, has been specifically designed and developed to ensure that your biggest priorities are handled with the urgency and focus required to make you most effective in your business and personal life.
Each day, you'll be impressed with the momentum created from tackling your most difficult tasks, and at the end of each week and month, you'll be amazed to see just how much you've completed!
Why use Eat That Frog?
There is no denying that it is our ability to focus on priorities and manage our time effectively which separates the high-achievers.
To that end, Eat That Frog! helps you to quickly establish and track your most important and impactful tasks throughout the each day.
HOW TO USE:
You can create as many tasks/Frogs as you like. However, there is a catch, you can only ACTIVATE ONE FROG AT A TIME.
NOTE: This is NOT a ToDo app - it's a procrastination killer that enables pure focus. Find out why this is the methodology used by the most productive people in the world.

Need app for the iPad
Need for iPad great application
Good but could be great!!
Suggestion #1: Allow the option for individual tasks for an active frog to CARRY OVER FROM DAY TO DAY if they don't get completed on the day they were listed I.e. The task shows up on everyday's list until completed. This is an app for procrastinators, right?
Suggestion #2: Allow users to change/ sort order of tasks within an activated frog
Suggestion #3 Allow users to toggle between which frog is activated. So there would still only be one frog active at a time but sometimes you HAVE to put one frog down to eat a more looming frog.
Suggestion #4: Allow users to create breakdown task lists for inactive frogs.
Thanks!!!
Very Disappointed
I purchased this app with high hopes. I like Brian Tracy's idea of completing your most difficult task ( eat the frog) and you are already on your way to having a productive day. I think this app is wonderful for this purpose if it actually worked. I have been able to enter a task and activate it. Beyond that application is very buggy. If you open up the tracking screen the font is garbled and illegible. if you go to the settings window that entire screen is blank and there's no way to adjust any settings. More disconcerting is if you enter in an item and don't activate it there is no way to view that item or a way to activated later.
The concept behind all of the applications from Equilibrium Enterprises are excellent ideas in concept. I use the Habit Factor application which is currently working but is not the most intuitive iPhone app I've ever used. I'm just disappointed that these apps that have so much potential would only have to function to be very valuable. On that note the Habit Factor works but if the developer is not going to put the time in Brian Tracy's Eat That Frog to have this app function properly they should not continue to sell it.
Even more disappointing is I am unable to find any place on the developer's website to actually contact them for support. Extremely disappointing,
