One of the biggest mistakes people make in the name of "productivity" is not truly understanding their WHY. Why do you want more time? Why do you want more output? Supercharge your Productivity is the only course that connects the pursuit of productivity to life’s larger questions so you can design a system that works for you.

The DJs were all instructed not to play any songs by Kendrick Lamar. But can you truly be high-status if you're scared of getting your feelings hurt by a song? And what great things in your life come with an asterisk?
