Your Time Is Valuable

You’ll learn exactly what you need—no more and no less. I’ve designed the course to be efficient, because your time is valuable.

‍You could piece together information on using Things from random places all over the Internet. But how long would that take? And what is that time worth to you?

When you follow this course, you’ll learn everything you need to know to organize your life and to be productive using Things. You’ll save tons on time compared to figuring things out yourself.

Think about what you could do with the extra time. You could spend it with your kids. You could spend it learning to play the guitar. Or you could, you know, spend the time doing the actual work you want to do!

• be able to focus,
• feel in control
• know what to work on next,
• save time and reduce errors,
