"I cannot recall a time I've had this much confidence in myself. It feels great."

That's Max Moss, an IT Solutions program manager and one of our former students.

Despite a challenging year for most people, Max had an Epic 2020.

You see, for nearly a decade, Max had toyed with various trendy diets. Yet he couldn't knuckle down on one elusive goal: losing weight.

But in 2020 he did it. Max hit his "goal weight," the same weight from his teenage years. That's Max, 13 years ago in 2007.

But there's more.

"A new job during a pandemic?!?"

In the midst of a global pandemic, Max got recruited for a job - when he wasn't even looking.

("The first time that I wasn't the one seeking.")

In this new role, his boss has singled him out as "awesome" and "invaluable." Max has designed an anti-fragile career.

Max sent me a message over the holidays, here's what it read:

"Thank you. Your class and teachings have changed my life for the better, and I am so happy I made the investment."

"Supercharge Your Productivity is my favorite type of course: it combines heart and brain, helping students introspect and find purpose via targeted tools and systems."

Kaja Perrina, Editor-in-Chief at Psychology Today

Stop ending up in the same spot. Year after year.

We all want a piece of Max's Mojo.

You want the confidence to pivot into a new career — one with rad colleagues who are deeply invested in your growth.

You want the courage to launch your breakthrough product — even though some of the kinks need to be ironed out.

And you want to be your family's steadying hand — their Chief Happiness Officer — during these uncertain times.

"Supercharge your Productivity made me less afraid of systems. It made me see that connectivity IS possible. It has given me room to invest more time into creating systems --because I know that the investment will produce value for myself, for my clients and for others."

Brandi the Greatest, Vice President at I Am Gym Foundation

Shift out of "React Mode"

Yet the daily whirlwind of activities sweeps you away.

You get sucked into Inbox Zero (and its never-ending dopamine hits).

You become a prisoner to your calendar — jumping from meeting to meeting with no time to think.

You end the day exhausted because your vague goals result in mindless context-switching.

All this daily firefighting has a steep price:

Your greatest priorities — your life's wildest dreams — are forced to take a back seat.
"As a solo-entrepreneur, time is my most valuable asset. But I would end my weeks and feel disappointed I didn't get more done. The course's  templates and "$10K work" framework reshaped how I structure my weeks.

I now get more work done in less time, and feel less exhausted by Friday afternoon. Can't recommend this course enough."

Dan Runcie, Founder at Trapital Media

Oh Hello, Shiny New Toy Syndrome

Here's where you run out to buy a Shiny New Toy.

A new iPad Pro to do more Deep Work and boost your creative output.

A fancy Moleskine planner to finally map out your big hairy audacious goals.

Or an Oura Ring to prioritize getting 8 hours of sleep.

Yet deep inside you know that no app, book, smart watch, or cool notebook will create more hours in the day, improve your focus or give you permission to take that courageous first step.

Here's how to take ownership of 2021

What was it about Max's Mojo that enabled him to attain the trifecta of a fit body, new job, and top performance ranking?

What was it that enabled Max to conquer the known nemesis, Shiny New Toy Syndrome? In Max's words:

"I created a project, gave it a high priority rating, incorporated it into my weekly review, built keystone habits, and allowed myself the flexibility to pivot when needed, using all of the concepts we learned in Supercharge Your Productivity."

Max had tapped into the anti-dote of SNTS.

An integrated system to mobilize and propel you towards your most ambitious goals.

A system that keeps you accountable for your values and nudges you to get a little bit better — every single day.

And most importantly — a system you trust. A system that sticks.

"This is more than a productivity class, it’s about figuring out what really matters to you, why it matters, and how to make time for those things that matter."

Shripirya Mahesh, Founding Partner at Spero Ventures

My Journey from the "Board Room" to the "Beach"

Hi, I'm Khe Hy the creator of Supercharge Your Productivity.

As a young analyst on Wall Street (ahem, two decades ago), I became obsessed with a simple question:

How could I live a fulfilling and happy life — on my own terms?

I wanted the financial security to not worry about the zigs and zags of the stock market.

I wanted the discipline and focus to chip away at the "important, but not urgent" parts of life.

I wanted the patience to invest in myself — and play the long game.

And I wanted the courage to take risks. Whether it was putting myself out there for a keynote — or doing the unthinkable — walking away from a seven-figure Wall Street job.

Level up your life with Supercharge Your Productivity

Supercharge Your Productivity is the course that I always wished I could take. So I went out and built it.

I wanted to uncover the cheat codes, tools and mindsets that would enable me to live on my own terms.

Over the past two decades, I've immersed myself in systems thinking, productivity frameworks, neuroscience, psychology, entrepreneurship, spirituality, engineering and organizational design. 

I internalized ideas that seemed intuitive (GTD, Essentialism), discarded the superfluous ones (Zettlekasten) and developed my own frameworks ($10,000/hour work).

This system helped me become one of the youngest Managing Directors at Blackrock (at age 31), but more importantly enable me surf every day in Manhattan Beach.
"Khe is a phenomenal, thoughtful, and incredibly intentional facilitator who goes above and beyond to make sure you extract the most value for your own wants and desires. The learnings are invaluable and it feels like the gift that keeps on giving."

Catherine Pao, Professional Coach

My unwavering commitment to our students

Teaching is in our family's DNA.  My grandmother, mom and sister have all taught their entire lives. Teaching - whether it's via a webinar, 1:1 coaching or mentoring a recent grad - is what gets me out of bed every morning.

I've taught this system to over 300 students, organizations and executives and have written 200+ related articles. 

My work has been featured in countless publications like the Wall Street Journal, CNN, Time, Barrons, Bloomberg, and TedX.
"Khe helped me integrate my life into Notion with intentionality. Everything he teaches has a specific purpose associated with it. I highly recommend the course to all my clients looking to strategize a more meaningful execution plan in their personal and professional lives."

Marian Knopp, Productivity Mentor

An integrated dashboard to transform your life

Systems act as the catalyst for transformational change.

But systems alone are not enough.

A system without implementation and execution is nothing more than a collection of ideas.

Over the four weeks, you'll design and build an integrated system to manage your tasks, goals, and everything you consume digitally using the powerful no-code platform Notion.

And the entire setup is as simple as an Excel Spreadsheet.

Here's what's included

A fluff-free and relentlessly pragmatic curriculum including 8 one-hour training sessions with Khe, weekly office hours, 30+ modules to learn the ins-and-outs of Notion and a private community of like-minded high-performing (and kind) professionals.

(Oh yeah, and 20+ pre-made templates so that you hit the ground running.)
"Supercharge Your Productivity freed up time and mental capacity."

"It enabled me to focus, prioritize, and be more productive everyday while executing on the ideas that I’ve had scattered across my notes and brain with no structure whatsoever."

Matt Petre, Director at Invesco

Week 1: What's your why?

The course kicks off with a unified framework to tie your daily activities to your life vision.

You'll build your habit tracker, "jar of awesome" and set your intentions for the year.

Templates include: meeting notes, web clippings, and tickler files for managing up with your boss.
"I realized the power of Notion in Week 1 and overcame the buy-in hurdle that had stopped me from using it previously."

"I created a daily habit tracker for a few health indicators, and it helps me spot trends which motivates me to be healthier."

Guy Margalith, Civil Servant

Week 2: Your $10,000 per hour work blueprint

Stop chasing the dopamine and start doing the impactful work that scales. Work on your business - not in your business.

You'll build a GTD-inspired task manager so that the right tasks find you.

Templates include: a CRM, applicant-tracking system and editorial calendar.
"Khe's focus and expertise is test driving and synthesizing all things relating to human potential."

"I was totally baffled when I looked at Marie Poulin's Notion setup (on YouTube). I have 50 pages of notes, that didn’t make a bit of difference! This course gave me a simple project to get me started with experiential learning."

Karin Payne, Industrial Designer and Artist

Week 3: Goal-setting (that actually works)

A detailed methodology to define and architect goals that can be measured over time. You'll target the pesky category of tasks that are "Important, not Urgent" covering your health, finances, and most important relationships.

You'll be introduced to Notion's database functions that will act as the glue to your Life Dashboard.

Templates include: Advanced file manager, coaching/consulting dashboard, and product road map.
"At first I was a little bit worried about the price of the course, but it soon became clear to me that it's worth every penny.
I feel much more organized, and it is easy to find what I need when I need it, it has really been worth the time investment to set it all up."

Miron Constant, Head of UX at ShiftLeft

Week 4: The "Cheat Codes" (aka Weekly Reviews)

Ah, the weekly review: loved by many, executed by few. Yet for your new system to work, this habit change must stick.

You'll set your future self up for a win with a series of checklists, task views, and incisive reflection prompts - in less than 25 minutes.

Templates include: A finance tracker, investment research dashboard, Smart reading list.
"Supercharge your Productivity has unlocked a hidden superpower. It's positively impacted my real estate business and day-to-day coordination with my family."
"I'm making better decisions, faster and more confidently than ever before. The course paid for itself after the first class, but the value keeps growing every month."

Chris Kawaja, Founder at Catarina Ranch Investments

A global community of kind, curious and instrospective trailblazers

They say you're the average of the 5 people you spend the most time with.

Imagine 4 profound weeks with a global crew of RAD professionals.

Our students are founders, artists, educators, doctors, lawyers, activists, investors, civil servants, engineers, small business owners and philanthropists. (Our youngest student is 20; our oldest is 68.)

They will challenge your assumptions, expose you to unique cultural perspectives, and cheer you on in our private Slack community.

You'll build lifelong connections and friendships.

A diverse and eclectic group of student backgrounds

Join a global movement and learning experience spanning 40+ countries representing iconic companies and institutions.
"Khe has an exceptional ability to challenge and bring out the best in students. 

But that's not all! The best part is the community and the genuine bonds we build with our peers. A cozy and safe corner on the internet."

Nesrine Aouinti, Knowledge Management Fellow at the American Red Cross

Supercharge your Productivity is designed to work for you, no matter how much experience or time you have.

I'm not going to lie. This course requires you to show up and do the work.

You'll build your own Life Dashboard (aka YourNameHQ), complete with your own $10K Task Management System, habit trackers, notes and all your digital workflows.

Supercharge your Productivity is taught as a mash-up of the Harvard Case Method, a coding bootcamp and a coaching engagement. (With the bonus of my hip hop and surfing references. Oh, and #dadjokes.)

By the end of Week 1, you'll have a solid system for capturing and organizing your ideas, tasks, and all the content you read.

Once you've acquired these basic building blocks, the course opens up like wildfire. You'll start grabbing a CRM template and duplicating it into your dashboard; customizing the frequency of your quarterly reviews; and pollinating ideas across disciplines.

Plus, you have lifetime access to the recordings and templates - so there's no rush.

Does this Max guy really exist?

Yup, he's a real person, he gave us permission to share his Twitter handle (@maxmm77). Here's the full email he sent us in late 2020.

You got questions. We got answers. (aka our "FAQ")

How does the “Select Edition’s” lifetime access work?

Supercharge your Productivity is a live, cohort-based course that is run 3-4 a year.

If you purchase the Select Edition, you get to re-take ALL FUTURE LIVE versions of the course. (We’re committed to at least 2 more in 2020.)

Students enrolled in the Essential Edition will have lifetime access to their cohort’s recording and modules — but won’t be able to participate in future live courses.

So...what is this course really about?

This course is about designing a centralized system to take control of your life's biggest priorities. You'll finally have one dashboard to manage your tasks, goals, and everything you consume digitally.

It's a course about the Notion app, but it's also so much more than that. It's about organizing your life, and freeing up your time to do the high leverage (i.e. $10K) work you want to be doing.

I'm skeptical about online courses. How is this one different?

It's about as close to an in-person class as an online-course can be. Here's how that's possible:

  • 4 live lectures with Khe (60 mins each + Q&A)
  • 4 live Notion-building sessions with Khe (60 minutes each + Q&A)
  • 8 live office hour session with our Teaching Assistants Filip Rankenberg and Kate Andlund (45 minutes each)

For those counting, that's nearly 15 hours of live instruction.

This is in addition to a real-time Slack community with 7 alumni mentors, pre-recorded modules on every Notion feature, and deep dives into topics like Habits, $10k work, BHAGs and Generosity-centric Networking.

We've been using this format long before COVID-19 hit -- in fact, some university professors have approached us to learn how we built such an engaging learning environment.

Why can't I learn all this for free on the Internet?

You absolutely can, and that's how I did it. The course taps into 500+ hours of research into Notion (not to mention studying productivity strategies since 2001) and then synthesizes it into a handful of relentlessly pragmatic modules. It's a high-leverage (and time-efficient) way of achieving Notion mastery.

How can a single app solve so many unique problems?

Notion is part of a movement in software development called "No-Code." These apps are backed with functionality that lets you effectively build apps on top of them. Using a car analogy, No-Code apps don't just give you the car, they give you the components (chassis, tires, transmission) to build the car itself. And this course will give you mastery of every component so that you can customize Notion to your own use cases.

I'm not a CEO or executive - is this course still for me?

Are you interested in organizing and managing all the competing priorities in your life? Spending more time doing high-leverage work that moves the needle? If so, then yes, this course is for you.

We've had CEO's, classroom teachers, artists, indie hackers, portfolio managers, entrepreneurs, venture capitalists, philanthropists and everything in-between.

My company uses Microsoft Office (or gSuite). Is it still worth it?

Absolutely. The system you'll design can support both personal life and work life. As an individual contributor, you'll find Notion will quickly supplant any tools you use to draft, write, and organize your professional life. Yes, ideally your team will eventually use Notion - but getting your projects out of Notion and into other platforms is frictionless.

When does the course start and finish?

The course starts on 2/2/21 and the main live sessions take place on Tuesdays at 8 pm EDT and Thursdays at 1 pm EDT for four consecutive weeks. Replays will be available immediately after the live lecture.

60% of our students watch one or more lectures per week via replay.

How long do I have access to the course for?

How does forever sound? After enrolling, you have unlimited access to this course for as long as you like - across any and all devices you own. You'll have lifetime access to the replays, mini-modules, and templates.

Is Notion paying you for this?

Nope. It's pure early-adaptor evangelism and me eating my own cooking. I am the "Notion Pro" for LA, which means they buy me pizza and send swag in exchange for hosting events.

What if I'm unhappy with the course?

I've spent years building up trust in the RadReads community and I'm not about to jeopardize this relationship. If you are unsatisfied with your purchase, contact us in the first 30 days and we will give you a full refund - NO QUESTIONS ASKED.

I'm really interested in this course but it's not financially possible. Do you offer any scholarships?

We sure do. We encourage you to submit an application. The deadline to apply is Midnight on Weds 1/27. And we'll let you know by Saturday morning if you've been accepted.

I still have questions. Who can I email?

Feel free to shoot Khe an email with any outstanding questions. I can be reached at hello [at] radreads [dot] co.

(Yes, that ".co" instead of ".com")
