All-new. Self-paced. Video course.

Made for creators, thinkers, and note-takers.

Discover how to take all the information you encounter — the things you read, the conversations you have, the ideas that come to you, the insights that strike from time to time, and more — and then organize it in a way that helps you get the most out of it.

This goes beyond the typical "file" or "pile" approach to organization. And it shows you why being able to actually connect and link your ideas is far more powerful.

(Honestly, you already have a way that you manage all your knowledge, You just may not realize it... which means it could be better.)

Is this course right for you?

This course is for anyone who wants to get more from of their notes and ideas.

When you are stuck in a broken loop of always learning and always consuming, but never taking action... frankly that sucks. It's frustrating. We know that you want to have more output, more impact, and to more consistently ship your ideas.

This course is also for anyone who feels stressed out by their note-taking system. We'll show you how to (1) eliminate the pressure you feel toward having to find important information; (2) stop wasting time reading stuff and doing nothing with it; and (3) stop being buried by your own "Information FOMO".

In short, this course is for you if...

• You deal with information all the time, and you want to be more productive and focused.
• If you don't consider yourself a creative, BUT... you think you could be and you want to be... (good news, you can be! It's easy and we'll show you how).
• You are a content creator, teacher, speaker, pastor, writer, idea machine, information junkie.
• If you have a podcast, YouTube channel, newsletter, Twitter Thread reputation.
• You have lots of notes, and wish you could get more out of them.
• You have bits and pieces of ideas all over the place... things are just lost in a sea of random notes.
• You want guidance on how to develop a system where you don't lose track of so much.
• Your idea system kinda sucks (just to be honest).

When it comes to struggling with your notes, writing, and ideas ... we have been there before

As creative note takers, we know first hand how important it is to capture, organize, and make use of your ideas and your notes.

We know how frustrating it is to capture a great idea, put it into your system, but then forget about it and have it get lost in the ocean, only to stumble upon it at some random date down the road wondering where it had been all this time, and wishing you had things more organized and at your fingertips.

Moreover, we also know about the apps for this stuff. We have personally used, tested, and tried all the other apps in this space (including Notion, Roam, Evernote, Ulysses, DevonThink, Drafts, Bear, et al.) While it may seem impossible to know which one is right for you, that's okay -- this PKM training is relevant for whatever app or tool you prefer to use for managing your ideas.

  The Focus Accelerator
  (Membership)

  Our flagship training on Focus, Clarity, Goal Setting, and Habits.
  
  As an Accelerator Member you get instant access to every single course inside the Sweet Setup as well as on our sister-site. This is the first time we've ever offered The Focus Course as part of a bundle to our TSS readers. We believe it fits perfectly with the PKM training because of the strong emphasis on doing your best creative work.
  
  As an Accelerator member, you'll discover the 5 Components of a Focused Life and how to use them to get absolute clarity on what matters most (both in your life and in your daily tasks). We'll show you how to turn that clarity into goals, and how to make regular progress on your goals by finally building habits that work in your favor.
  
  This is the same training that thousands of people have gone through since 2015, and which we have presented at live workshops, online cohorts, private corporate trainings, and more. (Read more about Focus Accelerator Membership here.)

FAQ

Q: Will this be worth my time?

A: In a normal day for you, how much time do you spend consuming information? How often do you grab a piece of paper or your phone to jot down an idea?

We have spoken with so many folks who, as part of their ideal day, they would love to have more time to think, learn, and reflect. They want some small part of their day to be free for them to be able to connect ideas and create.

Q: How does the course work?

Everything is pre-recorded and self-paced. You can watch (and re-watch) whatever lesson you want, and feel free to jump around to any particular lesson or module that you want.

Q: I use Roam / Notion / Craft / some other "PKM" app, is this course still relevant for me?

A: It depends... if you're not using your current app to its full potential, there are some fantastic PKM ideas that you can glean from this course that will help you be more efficient with the app you use for connected notes.

Q: Who made this course?

A: Mike Schmitz, our resident expert on idea management and productivity. Our goal is to help you make the most of your time and attention. We do this by researching and testing the very best workflows for staying focused. That’s why we’re visited by hundreds of thousands of readers every month.
