How is the program different from other productivity methods?

Less theory, more practice

The entire program is action-oriented. It's not a collection of knowledge that you'll be able to hoard and take out to dinner with friends. Rather, it's about familiarizing yourself with the philosophy of strategic laziness and setting up the system as you go along.

Tools and methods backed by science

The content of the program is strongly inspired by the productivity habits of historical figures and today's leaders, as well as by the experience of David and the people he has coached over the last few years.

An ecosystem for self-improvement. Together

On average, 3% of people watch an online training course through to the end and move from theory to practice. 90% of people taking part in a hybrid format combining asynchronous, live content and a supportive ecosystem (a dynamic community with which to move from theory to practice) take action.

It's 30x more impactful.
