| "Eventually everylife hacker realizes that productivity is about systems.The real""hack""is not a single app or a cool shortcut.It's an elegantsystem that allows you to get more done in less time because it reduces theamount of time it takes to stay organized and get things done.What isn't oftentalked about in productivity circles is the cost of making decisions.It's easy to talkabout saving time with this app or that plugin.But what about allthose friction points between apps, between tasks, that rob you of hours everyday, a minute here, a minute there?Those are what asystem is designed to solve.The key to managingyour information for productivityisreducing the decisions you have to make, and how long it takes to make them.The way this coursesolves the problem is that you no longer have to make hard decisions aboutwhere to put new pieces of information.Information.WhatamItalking about?Physical informationis mail. It's stuff you print out. It's receipts. Packing slips. Magazines andbooks. Even golf score cards. Amoleskine notebook or a loose leafjournal. Sticky notes and scraps of paper. Business cards.Then there isDigital Information.This is the realkiller for a lot of people.There is informationthat other people create:Emails. Web sites, articles, blog posts, forumthreads (and QA sites/threads). There's videos and audios and PDFs that youdownload or stream. There's bookmarks and random open tabs. There's Word docs andSpreadsheets and PowerPoint files.Then there'sinformation you create. Photos and screenshots from your phone. And videos. Andvoice memos. And maybe photos and videos from your DSLR. Notes-to-self in your phone. Papers that you scan into the computer.You have a perfect storm of information overload coming at you everyday.And it probably feels like there is no way to stop it.This system is the way.For each type of information, whether physical or digital, has an inbox. Each room where you do office work or learning has an inbox, a storage area and an outbox. You will learn how to create ""Pipelines"" for certain types of information.You'll learn how to manage the backup of all your information in all your digital inboxes. Automatically.The title of this course says Volume 1. Why?Because there is a course directly related to this course that comes next, in Volume 2.Volume two shows you how to batch process each of these inboxes. It shows you how on a daily (email), weekly (web pages) or monthly (files, photos, videos) basis you can batch process the contents of each of your digital and physical inboxes.Batch processing vastly improves your productivity because you reduce the amount of task switching you do.Volume two shows you how to do batch processing and gives you a full ""Life System""that will teach you where to store all your information for long term storage, once you move it out of the inbox.The Life System categories are 1.Professional, 2. Personal, 3. Relationships, and 4. Health. The full system contains hundreds of sub folders and is 3-4 folders deep in most cases. You will get the full folder structure as a zip file in Volume 2 as well as a walkthrough of how to use the system.However, remember this ISN'Tpart of this course.This course is just about setting up all your inboxes, which is a prerequisite for Volume 2.Just this first step of setting up the inboxes will take you several hours to complete once you have watched all the videos, and to implement Volume 2 will take even longer.Because of the amount of information and time required to implement these have been split up into two volumes."

| "Mastering Organization Vol 2: Information Reference System" |
| "This course is part of a 2 volume series on organizing your information. You should take the Volume 1 course on Information Inboxes First.I have gotten more requests for this course than anything else.And after over 5 years of development, I am finally releasing it here.This course is the ultimate answer to ""where do Iput this piece of paper/digital file?""There is a special technical word for this type of organization...it's called anontology.An ontology is a system of organizing ideas into a hierarchy.An example of an ontology is the way a supermarket organizes all it's food and other products. Or how Amazon organizes it's millions of products into various categories. Or the Dewey Decimal system that organizes the hundreds of millions of published books by category.The problem many people have is that they don't have this kind of exhaustive system for organizing their own personal information.That's why it's been requested by so many people over the years.This course contains a hierarchy that has been custom developed and tested for your use to handle all the major areas of your life, as well as all those things that you would consider ""Miscellaneous"" or ""uncategorizable.""Those four areas are:1. Your career/business2. Your personal life3. Your relationships4. Your health*Note, personal life is stuff related to managing your home or apartment, your finances, technology, property (both intellectual and physical),vehicles, education, and other things like that.There are hundreds of folder ans subfolders to handle anything you throw at this system.Ishould also mention a bit more about the research that went into this.I have researched over 100 different organizing systems that other people have created to create this one. I've taken the best of the best from each area of your life and created an organizing system to handle that.With other people's system, you will get certain areas that are very well organized because the creator of the system spends a lot of time in that area of their life, and then other areas will be very sparse. You won't find that here. This system is very well balanced.Also, this system will give you a TONof mental clarity on your life in general, as a side effect.The way you organize your information is just a reflection of how you organize your mind. And mental clarity comes from having a well organized mind.When you have a well organized mind, you can handle a lot more coming at you, take one new projects, have 100 different things going on and handle it effortlessly when someone else would be pulling their hair out trying to handle a tenth of that.It also gives you peace of mind. You no longer have to worry about the ""unknown unknown""which is one of the biggest problems with creating a system on your own.You are never sure if you are forgetting something or missing something that will come back to haunt you later and make you have to re-do your whole system later on and re-organize everything.For those of you who have finished Vol. 1, Information Inboxes:The way this system works is you capture everything, digital and paper, into inboxes. Files on your computer, paper, mail, email, and captured web research and notes in OneNote or Evernote. You then have a weekly or monthly practice where you sort each inbox into it's final location in your information reference system, which is included in this course.The reason why this system is so groundbreaking is because it doesn't force you to immediately organize everything you touch (or else have your system fall into disarray). Instead, you can batch process all your information which makes it more efficient and less of a hassle and drain on your day during regular working or home hours.The other unique thing about this system is it works in parallel on your computer and your file cabinet system.Whether a file is printed or digital only, it's just as easy to find and it's going to be in the exact same ""place.""Oh, and one other thing.There is another set of courses coming that involve applying this same methodology to organizing your OBJECTS.And that system is ALSO running in parallel with this one. So you actually are getting a system that will work to organize all your physical objects.To get a little theoretical.There are only two kinds of things you can organize. Two kinds of ""property.""Intellectual property is information. (Everything you create is automatically copyrighted, even if you never file. Some IPis licensed to you, like this course, but you don't ""own"" it in the same way you own the notes you take on this course, which are your own expression.)Physical property. The objects all around you, including your apartment/home, which is just a big object. And the earth is a really big object.Anything you want to organize falls into one of those two categories. The middle ground is things like books, CDs, hard drives, Kindles, pieces of paper you print out. They are technically physical objects but they serve primarily if not exclusively to represent symbols that you can interpret as a person. Yes, you can use a bad book as a door stop or paper weight, but that's not it's primary use.Originally, this course was just going to cover digital information, but it's been expanded to cover all types of physical objects that only serve as vehicles for symbols, like books, your mail, and papers you print out (and moleskine notebooks, sticky notes, and anything else you can think of.)This course WILL change your life. It will give you a sense of mastery over your information that you can't get any other way, and a sense of clarity because not only will your external and digital places be so much better organized, but your own mind and ideas will all fall into their natural and proper place.If I had togo back to before Iknew anything about accelerated learning, before Iknew anything about how to be organized or how to be productive, this is the one thing I would bring with me. It's that valuable.Enjoy the course and I'll see you inside,Timothy"

| "Expert Series Vol 3: Create a Role Models Poster Wall" |
| "The idea behind this course is to create a new environment that will pull you naturally towards your goals.The people you spend time with have a huge effect on your motivation and whether you keep old habits or adopt new ones.The problem many people face when they want to change their life in some way is that their friends, colleagues and family hold them back or make it harder for them to stick to their new habits.One of the easiest ways to counter these forces is to create a role models wall.This is something that I have used for years to keep all of my role models top of mind.It's a simple idea. Find pictures of the faces of each of your role models and start printing them out and posting them on the walls of your bedroom or office.This course teaches you how to do that, and do it well, but it also takes you through how to choose role models, how to make sure you have role models balanced across the 4 core areas of your life and also how to recognize bias in your role models that may be keeping you blind to certain people.This course will also show you how to keep your role model images organized in your existing learning project system.The whole idea of a role model is that they exemplify or model how to play a certain role in life well.To learn most effectively, you should get clear on what roles you play in the different areas of your life and then get clear on which role (out of the many each of your role models play in their lives) that you want to model.Nobody is perfect and nobody has every role in their life completely figured out. Part of what you will learn in this course is how to think about potential role models who have certain qualities you want to model but others you definitelydon'twant to model.You only have so much space in your mind to think about the various people in your life. Use a role models poster wall to start upgrading the people you surround yourself with every day and it will pay off for the rest of your life.Timothy"

| "Mastering Planning Vol 1: Hourly and Daily Planning" |
| "This course is the first in a series of courses on planning and scheduling.You will learn the PAMeLa model for planning as well as a system for managing your time and your calendar on an hourly and daily basis.The courses that follow this one focus on the larger scale units of time:Weekly/Monthly, Quarterly/Yearly, Multi-Year, Lifespan/Legacyplanning.This course is design to solve the paradox between spending most of your time in the a flow state and being able to schedule your time down to the hour and half hour-- and be accurate with your time estimates.For a long time Iwas a go with the flow type planner. Meaning I tried my best to have zero items on my schedule each day. I loved having the total freedom to work on whatever Iwanted to work on and do whateverI wanted to do.This works for many years. Then Istarted asking some tough questions.I wanted to know how Iwas spending my time.And how much of it Iwas wasting.I figured I wasn't wasting much, but Iknew there had to be some. Ijust had no idea whether it was 2 hours a week or 20.I was spending so much time in the ""flow""Ihad no idea where my time was actually going, and if it matched up with my long term priorities and plans.So Idecided to do a complete 180 and start planning out EVERYTHING.Literally every 30 minute block of my day. Just as an experiment to see what would happen.Plus, I learned that there were certain projects and areas of my life that Iwas chronically neglecting, and Iwanted to use an hourly planner to make sure Igave those areas the time they need to really make some progress where Ihad been falling behind.Idid this for a week, not expecting much.It turned out there was a wealth of information in the data I collected. I kept track both of what Ihad planned to do and what Iactually did for an entire week on a single piece of 8.5x11 paper.You'll see how to set this up in the course.Idid some simple metrics and learned some interesting facts, like on average Iwas only getting 4 hours of deep, productive work done each day.Ilearned there were certain people in my life that were taking up a lot more of my time than Ithought, and often with things that Iwasn't really enjoying or where Iwasn't the best person for them to be doing that activity with.I also identified a handful of bad habits or consistent time wasters that were adding up to 10-20 hours each week.Ilearned that Iwas a lot worse at estimating how long things would take that I originally thought. Ihad a couple projects that started as 1 hour time blocks and ended up taking up entire afternoons, 5-6 hours each.After doing this for a few more weeks Istarted seeing big improvements.I started cutting out the time wasters one by one and re-deploying that time where it was more needed.I started getting a lot more done and streamlining my life.And it was all because of this small experiment.What you get in this course is the process for how to do your hourly and daily planning, at a highly granular level. All the details and how-tos are spelled out.You also get a comprehensive introduction to the PAMeLa Model, which is the framework for understanding how the planning process (which is really a cycle, because it repeats over time) works.The innovation with this model is that it takes into consideration the most recent advances in Artificial Intelligence and the planning that robots and Artificially Intelligent Agents use to plan optimally.It also places a higher value that any other time management or planning system on the market does on learning.Meaning, your planning process is really a learning process.Every time you make a plan you are making a prediction about how things will turn out, and what the right way to do something is. You could be right, you could be wrong.Then you act. Trial and error. And you see what happens. You get results, either good or neutral or bad.That's where most people stop. They just go back and forth with very little improvement.Those two steps are the P and A of the PAMeLa model. For Plan and Act.The next two steps are critical.First is Measure. You have to measure your results. You have to write things down. Or type them in somewhere. You have to have metrics, or record things in your journal, or say them into your phone, or record a video journal. You can't trust your memory to keep these ""measurements"" retained long term.And even if you do record what happened, that's not enough. Most people who take their learning or planning half way serious have some sort of journal or diary or log that they make entries in daily or at least a few days a week.But most of these people never go back and actually use these records.They just sit there. Unused. No learning ever happens. Or very very minimal.That's why the last stage is learning.You have to go through your measurements and records and look forpatterns. You have to learn from your mistakes. You have to find solutions and dig into the problems to figure out what is really going on.You have to figure out what you will do differently next time, or better yet, how to create a system so that the problem never even shows up again in the future.You aren't really an accelerated learner if you don't have a PAMeLa type planning system in place. Because if you don't you are missing out on a gold mine of information about how inefficiently you are learning and behaving on a day in, day out basis.Iguarantee you, if you just do the calendar system for a single week you will identify enough inefficiencies that you will save over $1,000 over the next year in saved time, which you can then better spend elsewhere.Lastly, you may be wondering why Iam teaching this course first, instead of starting with long term planning and then moving down to short term. It's a fair question, and one I thought a lot about. The answer is that for the first few weeks of using this system, you really shouldn't be DOING anything different. It's mostly about learning where you are now, getting a really accurate baseline for how you are currently planning out and living your life.Once you have that information, then you can start making intelligent decisions. But not before then.Re-arranging your life is HARDto do. Not easy. And you will get the biggest bang for your buck by changing your daily habits, because you will see changes happen fast and it will give you the motivation to tackle the more long term planning projects, which take more time to think deeply about.You have to have a stable foundation on the day to day level before you can feel comfortable thinking long term. You won't make smart long term decisions if you have an empty stomach and are sleep deprived with no roof over your head. You have to have the basics down first. That means not in an overwhelmed, stressed out state because you can't handle your current schedule.This course will get you on firm ground so that you can tackle the longer term solutions when you are ready.See you inside the course,Timothy"

| "Is your life a ""mess?""Can't find things?Lot's of clutter?Huge to do list?Always procrastinating?Never get stuff done on time?Overwhelmed?Well, the productivity train is rolling in again with this brand new course.Thiscourse is a continuation of the existing series onMastering Productivity.This time you are learning how to set up a system for organizing your objects, as opposed to your information.Got problems with clutter? Never figured out how to solve it once and for all? This is the system that will fix it forever.And it works in parallel with the Info Org system, so you have one integrated solution for everything you manage, both information and objects. This kind of system doesnt exist anywhere else on earth.I wish it did so I didnt have to build it. Its taken a large chunk of my life to get it built and working properly.Volume 4 shows you how to do batch processing and gives you a full ""Life System""that will teach you where to store all your information for long term storage, once you move it out of the inbox.The Life System categories are 1.Professional, 2. Personal, 3. Relationships, and 4. Health. The full system contains hundreds of sub folders and is 3-4 folders deep in most cases.

| "Mastering Organization Vol 4: Object Organization System" |
| "This course is part of a 4 volume series on organizing your information. You should take the other 3 courses first.Simplicity.That's what's missing in how most people organize their homes, office and vehicles.We are flooded with information on a daily basis. That's why I created the previous courses on information organization.But then Irealized it still didn't solve my problem of how to organize the objects in my life. Each room, each thing...it should have a home. Aplace where it belongs and a place where you can always find it when you need it.There should be a logic to how your things are organized. They shouldn't be in random places.And they should correspond to how you actually use your objects.All these problems are solved with this system.It takes the same framework for organizing your information and applies it to your physical stuff.This way, you only have to remember one system and it takes care of any organization question you have for the rest of your life.The question of:""Where does this go?""And the follow up question:""Where did Iput that?""These problems may seem little but they add up. Saving an hour a day by being more organized is 350 hours a year.That's over8 work weeks of time.The real question is what exactly do you get in this course?In the last course, you learned how to set up your object inboxes.In this course you learn how to do 3 major things:1. You will build a map of all your storage locations so that you know how much space you have. This is a step that is almost trivial with computer storage, but for physical storage it takes a lot more time.2. You learn how to categorize each object in your home/apartment/office/vehicle into one of the categories from the ""One SystemFramework""I've been referring to in the previous courses in this series. You also learn how to build an inventory, which is optional, of all your most important objects.3. You learn how to allocate space to each storage location based on how you will access them (and how often) and how much space is available in each container.You will end up with a spreadsheet tool that will allow you to search your objects with the same ease and efficiency as you search for files on your hard drive.The end result of having these systems in place is that a lot of the most annoying problems in your life will simply disappear. You will find it very hard to lose things.It will be very hard to be confused about where something goes.Finding and storing things will become automatic.Say goodbye to the organizational riddles and wild goose chases and get ready for a revolutionary system that will truly save you thousands of hours over your lifetime.Enjoy the course and I'll see you inside,Timothy"

| "Learning the Hard Way Vol 7: Deliberate Practice" |
| "Practice.Practice.We're talking about practice.What makes you get good at something?Is it repetition?Is it having a good coach?Lots of knowledge?Accurate feedback?Effort?Attention to detail?The right mindset?10,000 hours of practice?Yes.All of the above and more.But let's zoom out for a second.Why practice at all?Why not just ""Take Action?""The reason Imade this course is that there are 3 types of learning that people do.One type is that you read a bunch of stuff, synthesize it and you need to memorize it for a test. Or you just want to have access to a large body of knowledge. You want to know a lot of facts but not necessarily do a lot with them.It's like having access to a big database in your head. But that's it.That's the first kind.And that's what mnemonic (memory)techniques are great for. Building up a knowledge base like that.Ok, now the second type.This is what Taking Action was built for.How do you turn your learning into a final knowledge ""product""....something you can use that is actionable?Meaning not just knowing a bunch of facts, but having them organized.Like a checklist.Or a one page project plan.Or even a Gantt chart or other calendar system.The idea is to create a plan where you build something once, you don't necessarily need to have much information memorized, but you do need to have it organized into an actionable plan.That's the second type.Now the third type.And the reason for this course.Sometimes you need what I call ""Evergreen Skills.""These are skills you will use for the rest of your life...or at least the rest of your career.We are talking about years and decades. Not just individual tasks or projects.These skills usually require that you can act with confidence, in the moment, with minimal or no preparation and perform at a high level.Here's an example.You need to set up a website, simple one, for your side business.How do you do that?Do you now become an expert at web design and architecture?Or do you get a course (or a book), create a to do list, and then get the site up and running in an afternoon?Probably the latter.If you wanted to learn to play the guitar, it would be different.You don't create a checklist and then bang it out in an afternoon.You ""bang it out""over a year or two or five.The difference, you might say, is muscle memory, but it's deeper than that.Whether you are learning a physical skill, or an intellectual skills (think public speaking for example, or sales), you have to get repetitions to get good at a skill.To be successful in your career, you need to balance these 3 types of learning.Sometimes you need a new database in your head.Sometimes you need a checklist and to just get something done once...and then file it away and forget about it.Sometimes you need to build a new skill.That's what this course is about.Skill building is the biggest time investment of any of the 3 types of learning.So it's really important that you are doing it the right way.You can waste YEARS of your life by practicing the wrong way.Take this course, and find out how you can maximize your practice time so that you can get skilled up as quickly as possible.-Timothy"

| "Learning the Hard Way Vol 8: Learning Project Organization" |
| "How do you 10X your ability to learn?How do you actually take on the challenge of learningeverything you've always wanted to learn?For most people, it's not possible.And the reason why is because they don't have a system.It doesn't matter what software you use.Idon't care how much storage you have.Or how great your search algorithm is.It's not going to allow you to truly scale your learning to the next level.The first step is realizing that everything you learn needs to be part of a project.There is no such thing as learning something out of context.Context is a requirement.And using projects to organize your learning is the best way to keep it organized and on track towards a goal.How many times have you had a specific question, and then chased it down a rabbit hole, and then emerged weeks or months later after a bunch of books and courses and forgotten why you even got started in the first place?Without any answer to that original question?What learning projects allow you to do is get clear on a number of things.What are your goals?Questions you want answered? Are there ultimate deliverables or things you want to create by the end?Storing them in the project makes sure you remember these over the months and years.Whatare your resources?Books?Courses?Conversations?How do you keep them all in one place and not forget about whole books or courses you went through years ago?And where do all your notes go?This course solves all those problems and many more.Finally, how do you keep track of your progress?Where were you 2 months ago when you last read that book on programming or networking or history?Keeping a log in your learning project allows you to pick right back up where you left off.The other huge thing you get with this system is the ability to keep things organized across different spaces. The same single system will keep you organized in your cloud drives, on your off-line hard drives, in your OneNote or EverNote, as well as in the physical world, in your file cabinets or 3 ring binders and your bookshelves.This is a complete system.You set it up once and it's going to save you 100s of hours just in the next year and thousands of hours over the course of your life.I've gotten many many requests for this course, and it's finally here.See you inside,Timothy"

| "Learning the Hard Way Vol 1: Skill Investing" |
| "Skill investing isn't something you hear a lot about.There are a lot of books out there that show you how to invest your money.Even books on how to manage your time.But none that go in depth on how to invest your combination of time, money and energy into learning information and building skills.This course is about strategic thinking.What strategy are you using to invest in your skills?Is it a smart strategy?Is it a strategy you decided on?Or someone else decided for you?Is it just ""going with the flow?""People spend lots of time and money figuring out how to invest for their future in the financial arena.But they spend almost no time deciding how to invest in skills.So try this thought experiment.How much time do you spend each week building skills and learning in some way? Meaning time off the job when you aren't working in the traditional sense?3 hours?5 hours?10 hours?Multiply that number by 50.That's about how much time you are spending in a year?5 hours a week?50 weeks a year?That's 250 hours.That's whatever you make per hour times $250.$20/hour?$40/hour?$60/hour?Let's say $40 an hour.That means you are investing $10,000 a year of your time into learning.And that doesn't even count what you are spending on books, courses, periodicals, subscriptions, etc.Let's tack on another thousand or two for that.Or don't even count it, it doesn't really matter.What matters is that you are investing 5 figures in your education, your skills, every single year.And you probably aren't spending any significant money or attention or time on learning HOW to do it.This course teaches you how.It teaches you how to think very strategically about 3 things.First, where you are. Who are you?What are your current skills?What are your aptitudes?Personality?Interests?Likes and dislikes?All that is important.Second, where is the world?Where is the demand?Where is the competition?Where is the excitement?Where are there untapped opportunities?Where is the future headed?Who is going to be left behind?That's critical, skills aren't valuable unless they can be used to create something of value, almost always that means for other people, and for a business of some kind.Third, how do you integrate the two? How do you measure the value?How do you allocate your resources?Your time, money, energy, etc?You will go through these 3 stages in the course. By the end you will have a much more strategic perspective on how you should be investing in your skills for the future.You have easily 4, probably 5 figures riding on your investments every single year.Is it time to get more strategic about how youare investing in your skills?If so, I'll see you inside the course.-Timothy"

| "Mastering Planning Vol 2: Weekly Planning" |
| "What do you have to get done this week?Do you know?What do you have to get done today?Do you know?How long is your to do list?Is it a sheet of paper?Notes in your phone?Abunch of sticky notes on your computer monitor?A few things jumbling aroundin the back of your mind?Let's back up a second.What is different about this course versus every other planning course out there?The difference is that this planning system is based on continually learning how to be a better planner...and...it's designed to meet two conflicting goals.1. How do you plan everything and get stuff done while staying in the flow?2. If you are in the flow all the time and never schedule anything, how will you ever meet deadlines or finish projects?The answers are contained in the planning system you will learn in this course.The goal of this system is that you are spending most of your day in the flow, and at the same time getting done what needs to get done.It's a flexible system that allows you to change things up during the week (so you can stay in the flow longer when you unexpectedly hit a stride and want to go over time) without ruining your whole plan for the day or week.Here's what often happens.You put together a plan for the day or week and then you give up after day 2.Why?Because of 2 thing.1. People tend to overestimate how much free time they have, and underestimate how long things will take.1a. They overestimate their time because they never measure how much time all of their mini-routines take out of their day.1b. They underestimate how long things will take because they are ambitious and want to do more and ""challenge themselves""...but really because they have never practiced the SKILLof estimating how long something will take, GETTINGFEEDBACK by recording how long it actually takes, and thenLEARNING from that continual process.(This is a big part of what makes this system of planning different. You aren't just throwing together a plan.You are getting BETTERat planning each week because you are getting feedback in the form of DATAevery day on how long things take and how accurately you are estimating the time cost of each activity you plan)Part of what you will do in this course is develop a time budget.This means you will figure out how much ""free"" time you really have each week.The truth is, there is no such thing as free time.Time has value, even if you aren't getting paid for it.So instead I use the term discretionary time.You get to choose what to do with it. But you should choose wisely because you will learn you probably have a lot less than you think.Out of the 168 hours you get each week, you are only awake for about 112 of them. Once you factor in meals, you are at 100 hours a week, roughly.Factor in an 8 hour day with some commuting and getting ready/unwinding each day and you are down to 50 hours of non-work time, if you are lucky (and not counting work email you do at home or other catching up over the weekend or at night).Once you factor in other things, many ofyou will learn that you only have roughly 10 hours of discretionary time each week to truly do whatever you want with.You will learn, through DATA, not throughplatitudes or feel good advice, how to get out of some of your time wasting habits, --whether it's TV, social media, certain websites, your phone, a certain friend or group of people or something else -- out of your life.It's about motivation. And only when you truly realize how limited your time is does it become easy and obvious to drop some of the time vampires that have been draining your time -- often without you even realizing it.At the end of this course, and with a few weeks of practice, you will get to the point where you can accurately plan and stay on course through the entire week, week after week, and consistently get stuff done.You won't have to worry about quitting mid way through because slack is built into the system in the form of buffer time.As you get more accurate with your planning, you can take away the training wheels and be more aggressive with how you fill your time blocks.All the while, you will enjoy spending most of your day, every day, in the flow and enjoying your work.You won't have to constantly wonder what you should be doing, if you are forgetting something, or if things are falling through the cracks.If you implement this system, it can truly change your life and help you get to the next level...while enjoying the process.I hope to see you on the other side,Timothy"

| "Mastering Planning Vol 3: Monthly Planning" |
| "As you know if you've taken the previous two courses in this series, the key thing that makes this planning system unique is that it is designed to help you improve your planning, scheduling and time estimation skills over time.And it's at the monthly level of planning where all the time recordings you've been doing on a day to day basis start to pay off.There are 3 important documents you will be creating each month during the hour long monthly planning process.The first one you can see in the course image. This document allows you to plan out your major projects each month to ensure that you aren't over scheduling yourself with too many concurrent projects.The second document is the review and planning one pager that you are already familiar with from the weekly planning course.And the third document is the Planning Skills Assessement one pager. This is the place where you collect your learnings from the previous month, keep track of your Planning KPIs (Key Performance Indicators)and track yourself as your planning skills improve months by month.The 30 day time scale is where people start to lose visibility, meaning beyond a week or two in the past or the future, their memory of the past (and imagination of the future)becomes very foggy.Just as in my accelerated learning courses, I advocate a spaced repetition solution to this memory problem. Simply put, if you aren't getting spaced repetitions on bothyour future long terms goals, as well as your past successes and failures (and most importantly, what you learnedfrom both), then you are not going to be able to effectively chart the course of your life.The unique method of planning using the one pager template you get in this course will allow you to see your last months in ""story mode,""meaning that you can lay the pages out on your desk or table one over the other and quickly get a birds eye view of the last however many months you want to look at.The other great thing about this system is that it's designed to help you get clarity, down to actual numbers, on your time constraints. Most people have very little visibility into how constrained their time actually is, with all the hidden habits and routines that are part of their lives, but that they never get fully aware of.You can only plan effectively if you really understand all these constraints. Only then can you consistently plan things and have them come to fruition on time and on budget. You will learn, for example, how to incorporate buffers into your monthly planning project.This monthly planning routine goes hand in hand with your weekly planning hour. On the Sunday before the first day of the next month, you will spend 2 hours planning:a half hour to Measure and Learn from your previous week, an hour to go through the full PAMeLa model at the monthly level, and then one more half hour coming back down to the weekly plane to plan your upcoming week.This course will be the first step in getting your long term planning handled, and get you ready to take the next steps into Quarterly and Yearly planning, as well as the time periods beyond that, which are coming next in this series.See you on the inside,Timothy"

| "Business the Hard Way Vol 1: Sales the Hard Way" |
| "What is sales?What is it?Really?This is the question that literally took me years to find an answer to.It shouldn't be that way.But it is.Because there are some very big, very wrong beliefs that most people believe about sales that make it almost impossible to really learn.The first wrong belief is that sales people are born, not made.Of course, this is a convenient belief because it takes the responsibility off the people training the skill and puts it on the students.The truth is sales teachers haven't been able to successfully tease apart the handful of skills required to be successful and to deconstruct each of them into learn-able steps.The second wrong belief is that people buy because of emotion, not logic.The truth is that they buy because of emotion AND logic. And there is a logic, which most people don't understand, that explains why people feel the emotions they feel.It's all logic underneath. It just takes the right framework to see that.The third wrong belief is that sales is about saying the right things.The truth is that the most important step, and the first step, in a sale is learning about the other person, finding out what their problems are, and then matching their problems to your solutions.So what will you learn in this course?You'll get a framework for understanding the 5 core skills of sales, and you'll get a framework for managing all the content of your sales communication.And a not about communication.Sales is just one branch of a much bigger tree called persuasive communication. Asking for a donation of blood is sales. Convincing your child to believe in themselves is sales. Running for a government office is sales. Going into a company for a job interview is sales.These are all sales. They are activities that all use the same muscles. Just directed towards a different outcome.To be a truly influential person, you have to understand that these activities are all really the same thing.My goal is that by the end of the course you have that new skill.To see the deep patterns that unify all these related skills. Whether you call them selling, teaching, persuading, preaching, fundraising, evangelizing, parenting, etc.That, plus, you will get a unique framework for developing your sales presentation in a visual way with an argument tree.An org chart combined with a mind map, except for making sales arguments.This is the next level of sales.This is the future of sales.And it's the most important step because it will buildTRUE foundation sales skills that will serve you for the rest of your life, not just in sales, but in every situation in your life where you seek to have influence.Enjoy the course,Timothy"

| "Structured Note Taking Vol 1: Create an Ideas Bank" |
| "Do you have a system for taking notes?Do you have a system for organizing your notes?Can you reliably find notes you took on a book or at a conference from 5 years ago?What about a creative idea you had 5 years ago?For most people the answer is no.For most people, they would have a very hard time finding something from 5 months ago, or even 5 weeks ago.Accelerated learning is about becoming more efficient in your learning.But another way to look at is just a methodology so that you stop wasting huge amounts of time.And one way we waste time is that we come up with the same ideas over and over again because we never write them down.Or we write them down, but then we never do anything with them.You may have heard about the idea of an ideas bank before. Or something similar. Aplace to keep all your random notes in one place.But it turns out that if you consistently do this for months and years, you end up with the equivalent of a spreadsheet with 10,000 +rows.You may have started out thinking you would look over your list of ideas every month for 10 or 15 minutes. But after a year or two, it's more like 3-5 hours to read a list that long.It's not a SUSTAINABLE system.It turns out that the only smart way to use an ideas bank is to get stuff out of the ideas bank as quickly as possible.It's called project based thinking.Any idea that you have, at least 95%of them, are actually ideas that belong in a larger project of some kind.You may not have a project set up yet, (and if you aren't sure how to do that, check out my vol 8 course in the learning the hard way series and my course on one pagerr project management) but that doesn't change the fact that most of the ideas you havearereally just leaves on a tree. And that tree is a project.Each project is a tree. And each idea you get is a leaf.You need an ideas bank so you can get those ""bags of leaves"" that you collect in your phone or notebook or sticky notes and get them on the right tree where they belong.That's why this course isn't just about building a place to store stuff and then never look at it again.The ideas bank is the HUB of a larger system.This system is design for keeping your micro-notes well organized.If you've taken my courses on note taking and learning projects organization and information organization, you know how to organize your information.But only when it is a known quantity.What about all those micro notes that don't fit into that system easily?That's what the ideas bank is for.It's kind of like the huge sorting facilities that UPS uses.All the packages in a region get sent to a central sorting facility, and then they get shipped off by truck or plane to their destination city.The ideas bank is that hub that will bring everything in one place so you can then send it off to it's final location.Future courses in this series will cover specific types of structured notes you can keep for things that don't fit neatly into existing categories.For example, a mistakes journal, dream journal, physical object inventory, intellectual property inventory, etc."

This is the aspect of AI that involves getting information into the computer, the brain, the AI, so that it can be processed. It's the process that the eyes and ears and other senses help serve for us humans and other animals who have various degrees of intelligence.The next step is Learning. A key aspect of intelligence is that an intelligent person or animal or computer has to be able to learn over time so that it doesn't keep making the same mistakes over and over. And ideally, the AI becomes something that can learn without a person always teaching it everything and looking over it's shoulder. It should be able to learn on it's own. That is where MachineLearning comes into play. You'll get an in depth overview of Machine Learning with plenty of examples.The third stage is Planning. This is the task the AI takes on where it has to decide what to do. It has to make a decision. It has to prepare to take action by looking at the various options and choosing the best one based on some kind of formula, with some metric of success to maximize. How does that all work?You'll learn all about it here.The final stage is action. How does the computer act in the real world.This is primarily the area of robotics. How do you create motors, also called ""actuators"" in AIparlance, that will make the AImore than just another window running on your computer? How do you create a self driving car or a robot that can walk around or express emotions on it's ""face"" while in conversation? You'll learn about how robots act in the real world, and some of the interesting state of the art applications in this section.For those of you who have been following along in this series, you're going to have a lot of breakthroughs here where you see some of the lower level ideas and concepts from the previous courses start to really help you understand at a deeper level how a lot of the newest technology actually works under the hood.See you inside,Timothy"

| "Sales Training: Secrets of a Master Closer - Part 2" |
| "My experience has shown me that in order to be a great salesperson, it only takes three things:You have to know the fundamental principles of selling. No amount of trick techniques or gimmicks can replace an understanding of the underlying laws of sales and persuasion.You have to know the precise steps that every sale must go through, and how to smoothly walk prospects through each. If you can't, you'll never reach your full potential as a salesperson.You have to have a strong desire to succeed. I know that sounds trite, but it's true--the best salespeople are inevitably the most driven. Fortunately, once you have the first two prerequisites, this final one usually takes care of itself.Whether you (or your any of your sales team) are new to sales and have no experience or are a seasoned veteran looking for a way to boost your numbers and make more money, I can help you.In my courses (part 1 and 2) you'll find the most important principles, techniques, and training exercises that I've isolated, tested, and codified during my twenty years in sales and sales training.Each lesson contains a portion of my video seminar along with the corresponding chapter from my best-selling book. These two formats guarantee maximum retention of the data presented, and (with the test questions and practical exercises) mastery of each skill necessary to be a master closer.Regardless of what you're selling, I am certain that this course will teach you (or your sales team) how to sell more and sell faster. I know I sound biased, but this just may be the best sales training you will ever experience, but I invite you to preview my course and judge for yourself.Thank you and I wish you great success!"

My name is Jordan Hudgens, and I'll be your instructor for the course. I've built many different Ruby on Rails applications throughout the past few years for companies such as Eventbrite and Quip and one of my passions is helping individuals learn how to code.After completing this course you will be able to build a production Rails project from scratch. But there are a million courses that will help you do that. What makes this course different is that you'll learn how to build a Rails application like a professional developer. I took a completely different approach to creating this course. I don't edit any mistakes and I filmed the entire set of videos in real time so you can watch my exact process when I am tasked with building a real world application. I made this decision so that you can get a transparent view into what it takes to become a pro developer, and also so you can see how I work through challenges, all in real time.One of the most critical requirements for a professional Rails developer is a strong knowledge of testing. With that in mind, every feature that we build in the course will be created with the test driven development process. Some of the key features you'll learn how to implement are:Using TDD and BDD with the RSpec and Capybara testing frameworksWorking with the Twilio API to send SMS messagesIntegrating a permission structure for usersImplementing an administrator dashboardWorking with automated email componentsCreating an approval workflow from scratchCreating JavaScript Growl notificationsAnd much more!This course is not for the faint of heart. The ideal student for this project is someone who has already taken a basic Rails course and wants to take their skill to the professional level.Each lesson comes paired with the source code implemented at that stage so that you can follow along and compare your code with the codebase for the application. And beyond that you can also use the source code to extend it and build your own production applications.Please feel free to review the course curriculum and I look forward to going through the material with you on your development journey!"
