I found this course incredible since I was reviewing each chapter 2 or more times and always found more detail in the explanations. Thanks to this course I have improved my productivity by 150% as well as that of my team, having more free time to focus on new projects or live new experiences. I didn't know how important it was to schedule my day and program my recurring tasks. I definitely highly recommend it.

I recommend the course if you want to get some ideas on how to set up a productivity system. Honestly, I bought it years ago, at the time it wasn't useful at all and today, 10/24/2024, some of the things are obsolete, or, in the case of Notion, it has evolved so much that it needs to have some review of the section dedicated to it. If you already know something about productivity, this course is not for you, it doesn't cover topics in depth, it just shows examples and atomizes with other sources.
