My computer crashed. Hard drive failure. Everything gone.
Including my Deep Focus setup. Five profiles. Weekly schedule. Session templates. All of it.
I had to rebuild from scratch. And I realized: I should have backed it up.
Now I export my setup every week. Here's why.
Deep Focus lets you export:
Export creates a file. Import loads it. Simple.
1. Backup
Computers die. Hard drives fail. Cloud sync helps, but local backups are insurance.
2. Sharing
Built a great setup? Export it. Share it with your team. Everyone gets the same system.
3. Fresh starts
New computer? New OS install? Import your setup and you're back to work in seconds.
Every Sunday, I export my profiles and schedule. Save the file to Dropbox. Takes 30 seconds.
If my computer dies, I lose nothing. If I get a new machine, I import and I'm done.
And when teammates ask "how do you stay focused?" I send them my exported profile. They import it. Instant setup.
Your focus system is infrastructure. And infrastructure needs backups.
Don't wait for a crash to learn this. Export now. Save it somewhere safe. And never rebuild from scratch again.
30 seconds of export saves hours of rebuilding.
