At the end of the eight-week, live cohort course, you’ll be:

• Confident building, adapting, running, and maintaining your productivity processes in Roam Research
• In control of your time
• Clear on your priorities
• Equipped with valuable routines & habits, as well as templates (and SmartBlocks!) to help with them
• Able to handle urgent work without being overwhelmed by it
• More fulfilled by your work-and driven to pursue more fulfilling work

  Any of these sound familiar?
  You’re always busy but never feel like you’ve accomplished anything…
  You have so much you want to do but there’s never enough time for it…
  You feel so overwhelmed by what’s urgent that you never address what’s important…

  THis course will help you address these using Roam.

  Here is the Syllabus

  Course Syllabus/Timeline
  AP Productivity: Cohort Three | Timeline
  Here’s our timeline for the next several weeks! This is subject to some adjustment based on the needs of the cohort, but we will largely follow this structure.

  Live Sessions info
  All live sessions are recorded. If you can’t make a live session, watching the recorded replay is a good option: you can speed it up if you want, and also stop and start as needed. And of course you can engage in the community at ANY time, and bring up any questions at Office Hours.
  Group Coaching sessions will be 90 to 120 minutes once a week, and cover the main content for that week. We will have breakout rooms to work together and begin to implement the content. These will mostly be at 11 a.m. US Eastern time (convert to local time).
  Office Hours sessions will be 60 minutes twice a week, and allow you to ask questions and demonstrate successes and challenges as you build your productivity system. One of these will be around 11 a.m. (convert to local time) and the other around 6:30 p.m. (convert to local time). That way no matter where you are, you have an opportunity to join us live at least once a week.
  Prior to the Group Orientation session, I will post a schedule of the live sessions for the first 4 weeks. The Group Coachings will mostly be on Tuesdays, but the Office Hours will adjust a bit depending on the week.
