I’ve never been a fan of rules.
Well, just not rules that other people tell me to follow without question.
Those types of rules bug me.
However, I find it important to have your own set of rules.
Especially when it comes to something like your work life and productivity.
This doesn’t mean you should never break your own rules.
But you become a whole lot more productive when you have a set of rules to follow — even if it’s just as a guideline.
Over the last decade I’ve discovered some rules from selling hundreds of products and working with hundreds of professionals.
I’ve built (and designed) hundreds of personal productivity systems for myself and others.
I’m yet to meet someone who doesn’t have some kind of system — even if it’s a horrible one.
Everyone has their own system.
The problem is people rarely take the time to deconstruct the mistakes and what they’ve learned and create a rule book around their knowledge.
I have.
I still do every day, week, month, quarter.
Turns out, I’ve gotten pretty solid at it.
People have paid me a pretty penny to do the same for them — but they’ve made that penny (and a whole lot more pennies) back using the system we’ve built together.
In my opinion, a productivity system that makes sense and works for YOU is priceless.
Not only in a financial way — making more money and saving more time.
Also emotionally — working on fulfilling projects and annihilating petty tasks.
And intellectual — building up what you’re best at and delegating everything that drags you down.
I’ve recently opened up 5 spots to ambitious professionals and high-achievers to apply for Elite Performers.
Inside we’ll build you a personal productivity system (or “rule book”) that boosts your income by 20% while cutting your work hours in half.
This can be incredibly important for you if you’re feeling undervalued in your business or organization.
It can be your way out.

P.S. Rules are meant to be made…and sometimes broken. By broken I mean improved, made better. Which is a critical part of any productivity system — I call it the “feedback loop.”
