Our goal here is to help you make the most of your time and attention. We do this by researching the very best apps for your Mac, iPad, and iPhone.
We also know a lot about workflows, staying focused, and best practices. That’s why our work has been featured in and referenced by sites such as Forbes, Inc., Entrepreneur, and MacStories. And we have helped over 12,000 customers.
In this, our most-popular course, All The Things, we will quickly show you how to get up and running with our tried-and-true, in-depth systems for a more calm approach to productivity and easier task management.

Is your task list longer than your arm?
Not only do you need to focus on the important things, you also can’t lose track of the little stuff which still needs to get done.
Which of these sounds less frightening?
Setting up a system that balances your list of all the open things to do so you can know which ones are most important, which ones are the right ones to do next, and which ones are even worthwhile in the first place.
Swimming the English Channel blindfolded. While being chased by sharks. Sharks with lasers.
Don't tell me. The second one, right?
Some folks think they have a better chance racing against laser sharks than they do of setting up a good productivity system. Clearly, as tasks build up, it can be a bit overwhelming.
Good news is that you’re not alone. It seems just about everyone is drowning in tasks (no pun intended). Did you know...
63% of people spend most of their time on busywork.
Yep. We asked more than 2,000 people if their day is spent mostly on busywork or important work. And guess what? The majority of people said busywork.
Which means two things...
People everywhere feel overwhelmed with all the things they have to do.
Those people spend most of their day unable to get to the important work.
And frankly, that sucks. It means you're swimming against the tide, not making any progress at all.
Shawn has taken his approach to meaningful productivity and made it accessible for life. With helpful tech tips as well as analog insights, my goals all just got a huge boost!
I simply can't believe the amount of value and content in this course. It was so good I binged it like Netflix.

Shawn Blanc’s Hybrid Productivity Method
Here's a video taken from the course where I show how I use both digital and analog tools to manage my tasks.
P.S. In All the Things, there is over an hour and a half of video content that goes into significantly more detail explaining exactly how I use these tools as well as the templates I use for my daily and weekly planning and reviewing, and more.
You Can Manage All The Things
Learn Advanced Workflows for Productivity and Task Management
This course consists of a series of videos on goal setting, productivity systems, and more.
And this is where the real magic happens...
You will discover our best practices, templates, personal systems, and more for managing your tasks and being productive.
These are ideas and workflows you can use no matter which productivity app you use (from Things, to OmniFocus, Todoist, or even a physical journal).
If what’s important always seems like whatever’s URGENT, you’re going to feel overwhelmed. Break the cycle.
This course will help you get freedom from the urgent so you can find margin for the meaningful.

What you will learn in these sessions can be applied to whichever tool you use (including OmniFocus, Todoist, a physical journal, and more).)
You’ve read a productivity / GTD book or two and had trouble applying the rigid methodology to your day-to-day life.
You’re not an organized person, but would like to have a few tricks up your sleeve to help you stay on top of your to-do list (at work and/or at home).
Your to-do list overfloweth. You’ve got too much to do, not enough time to do it, and a general feeling of overwhelm when you look at your list of things to do.
You have multiple areas of life to manage (work, home, personal side projects, etc.) and you’re not sure how to organize them.
You find systems to be annoying, but know that you need a better way to stay on top of your tasks.
You want to ensure the important things you need to do are not falling through the cracks.
Most of your day is filled with busywork rather than meaningful work.
You struggle to manage all the incoming tasks that come your way.
Shawn's training on productivity has been so helpful to me. If your task list feels overwhelming, I think you would love All the Things!
