If you think back to when you started your business, does your workday look anything like what you envisioned? I’m guessing no, since you’re reading this sales page, so in lesson 2 I’m going to help you design a workday you love so much you won’t even call it work any more.

If you wanted to lose weight, you wouldn’t stock your pantry full of cookies and chips. Instead, you stock up on fruits and vegetables so it’s easy to make good choices. Likewise, if your goal is to be more productive, it’s a good idea to make it easy to be successful. In this lesson, I’ll share some ways you can make productivity easy, including...

• How to make a daily plan of action you'll actually stick to.
• How truly productive people start their workday (and it's got nothing to do with meditation or yoga or even a cup of coffee).
• Four ways to eliminate the distractions that derail your day and make you feel like a failure.
• Four must-do activities to end your day with intention and a sense of completion.

Those piles of sticky notes, unopened emails, and 37 browser tabs you’ve had open since 2016 are not helping you get things done. And they’re certainly not helping you to remember what you intended to do. Instead, they’re insidious reminders that you’ve forgotten something, and that something is taking up precious space in your head... space you could be using to be more creative, effective, and efficient. In lesson 5, we’ll change all of that by creating a task management system that actually works, and more importantly, that you’ll actually use.

If you’re feeling overwhelmed and you’re sure you’re dropping balls somewhere (if only you could remember what they are) then lesson 6 is for you. With a single planning session each week, you’ll get crystal clear on what your next steps are, you’ll know exactly when you can make them happen, and you’ll end the week with a feeling of accomplishment and satisfaction for a job well done.

I’m not talking about saying no to the neighbor who wants to chat or to your mom who wants to go shopping. I’m talking about saying no to yourself—and not about the fun stuff. Lesson 8 is about being realistic about what you can get done, so you can put your best work out there every single day without regret.

Let’s face it, most toddlers have longer attention spans than the average entrepreneur. Between the email notifications and text messages and the siren song of Facebook, how can you hope to get anything done? Lesson 9 is going to fix all of that with practical ideas for finding the focus you need to actually get the important stuff done.

So many people—and this is especially true of service providers—treat email as a to-do list that others can write on. In this bonus lesson, I’ll share practical strategies for emptying that overflowing inbox, and keeping it under control in the future. This lesson alone will change the way you work and save you hours of wasted time every single week.
