Course overview
Maximize your productivity. Build a better business.
We often think of productivity as getting more done. It's actually about doing less.
In this two-week course, I will teach you how to take back your time, focus on the high-leverage actions, and start making immediate progress towards your goals, without burning out.
If any of these sound familiar, this course is for you.
01
I want to launch my own venture but have very little time and energy.
02
I spend very little time on deep, creative work.
03
I use a mishmash of tools and often forget where information lives.
04
Im constantly trying to decide what next action to take.
05
I just ‘get projects done’ without a clear roadmap or strategy.
06
I’m juggling multiple projects at any given time and feeling constantly overwhelmed.
07
I often get pulled into low-leverage tasks, meetings, and projects.
08
I have days where I’m crazy productive, and days when I get hardly anything done.
09
I know tools like Notion can be useful but have no idea how to build a productivity dashboard
Key Outcomes
Move from goals to action.
When we don’t hit our goals, it’s not because we can’t. We often lack the systems to make gradual, consistent progress. I’ll teach you the best frameworks for setting goals, quantifying your progress, and focusing on the highest-leverage actions to get you there.
Save hours of wasted time every week.
Reach the end of the week without much to show for it? We'll explore proven strategies for managing time with intention.
Manage multiple projects without burning out.
Do you bounce around multiple projects throughout the day? We'll tackle "attention residue" and how to batch tasks by type, helping you work more deeply.
Make sure the high value work gets done first.
We often spend 80% of our time on low-leverage, low value tasks, leaving little time for deep, creative work. We’ll dive into how to flip that, so your your time and energy goes to the most important work.
Build a second brain optimized for you.
As much as you might hear it, there’s no one-size-fits-all template that will create lasting behavior change. The best productivity frameworks start with first principles, and are thoughtfully crafted to suit your goals, priorities, and working methods.

Dave de Céspedes
I’ve helped launch over 30 workspaces for creators, entrepreneurs, consultants, and side-hustlers just like you.
I've leveraged Notion to go from full-time teaching to running a six-figure consulting business, and growing a 50k audience on social media.
All while working less than 25 hours per week.
The purpose of this course is to avoid spending hundreds of hours pouring over Notion resources, videos, and courses. Instead we’ll spend two weeks hyper-focused on building a workspace that supercharges your work.
If you want to learn how to apply proven productivity strategies to maximize your time and energy as a creator, the Notion Creators Bootcamp is for you.
