Course Overview

Productivity: Applying Psychology to Achieve Your Goals

Learn research based techniques to hack the productive process, improve time management, business and study skills.

My third course in a series, learn how to Increase your productivity and achieve your goals by understanding the psychology that drives success. This course is designed as a resource that provides research backed techniques and strategies that you can use to help boost your productivity.

When you enroll, you gain access to a number of lectures that will teach you how to maximize your time, set goals and avoid several psychological biases that impact productivity. From learning how to shift from long term vision to short term action, to understanding the impacts of sleep on productivity, the course offers a range of interesting and valuable concepts that can be applied in the real world to help achieve more success.

This course focuses on both common and lesser known techniques including, but not limited to;

  • SMART Goals

  • The Zeigarnik Effect

  • Impacts of Multitasking

  • Using the Eisenhower Matrix, and

  • The Planning Fallacy

The target audience for this course are entrepreneurs, leaders, managers, students or anyone interested in learning how to maximize their time. Regardless if you have never previously taken a productivity course or if you are already highly productive, I guarantee this course has at least one concept you can use to help achieve your goals in less time.

The structure of the course intentionally limits each lecture to a single concept that is independently supported, allowing you the flexibility to either go straight through the course from start to finish or to pick and choose only those lectures and concepts with which you are unfamiliar without having to worry about losing understanding.

"Achieve Your Goals: The Psychology of Productivity", is my latest course to supplement two other courses that I teach, "Become a Creative Genius: Keys to Successful Innovation", and "Simplify Your Problems: The Psychology of Choice". When you enroll in one of my courses, you are joining thousands of students that have benefited from the series.

    The course was easy to understand and very informative in the different techniques for success in Productivity. Then to realize you did the Zeigarnik effect without a thought was interesting. Thank you very much for this course. I look forward to implementing and referring back for a refresher when I need to.

    Great course again! I learned some new productivity concepts and techniques that I had not known about before. I really enjoyed all the quotes you used at the beginning of each topic. The sleep topic was a great refresher on why it's so important to get 8 hours of sleep a night. I will do my best to get back on a healthy sleep routine. This course also inspired me to keep my phone away from my bed. From now on, I will leave my phone at my desk. :) I also loved how you implemented the Zeigarnik Effect from start to finish to keep my brain activated throughout the entire course, which was a great way to show us how that concept works. I got all 5 eggs! :D
