TIME TO
create!
I cannot stress enough... how important it is to lock-in a production schedule so you can get this baby out
to the world!
Daily distractions, to-do’s and interruptions may (most likely will!) drag this process out over weeks, months
and possibly years! And we don’t want that to happen!
I completed my first course in 3 days because I was forced to... and if you plan correctly and stick to a few
fundamental rules, I truly believe you can create your entire course in less than a week.
So... here are my non-negotiables...
SET A DATE IN YOUR DIARY
Lock in a date that you can have some silence and privacy. Creating your course requires
uninterrupted time and if you’re anything like me... working in solid blocks of time allows you to get
in the ‘zone’ and build momentum. I am a great believer of focusing on one task at a time and
believe multi-tasking is a myth! SO, lock yourself away and you will be amazed at what you can
achieve.
BE ANTI-SOCIAL
That’s right! Turn the phone on silent... resist the social media scrolls and be a little selfish! Darl,
you need to focus! And you deserve this time to put your heart and soul into this course without
distractions. Checking emails and messages will break your concentration... and more often than
not... tempt you to ‘just do something quickly’... which leads into the rest of the day being lost in
your regular daily tasks and routines.
SET PRODUCTION TARGETS
So, you’ve got 3 days? Let’s not waste them! Divide your tasks (write scripts & talking points, film
videos, edit videos, upload and embed videos) into the number of days you have set aside... and be
sure to allow time for any other resources that you want to create (eg. PDF downloadables,
quizzes).

BREATHE AND BE KIND
Your productivity will improve significantly if your mind and body are in the right place. Brew your
favourite tea... start the day with an early morning walk... get enough sleep each night! Do
whatever it takes to ensure you can feel physically well and mentally clear... then take a deep
breath and enjoy this incredible time of doing!
