Do you watch streaming video?  Would you like to save a lot of time doing so?

To better help my clients, and to just plain survive economicaly, I must constantly learn a lot -- studying powerful paradigms, ways to optimize time and resources, ways to reengineer business plans and models, much more effective marketing techniques, and so on.  I learn from modelling the masters.  Some of that is via studying on-line streaming video courseware.

That can be very time consuming and my time is valuable.

One of the intense and extremely valuable on-line educational courses I'm currently studying consists of more than 30 sessions, each one consisting of about an hour of video, another 1-2 hours of Q&A video, 50-100 pages of supporting printed material.  That's PER session.

Photoreading and speed reading greatly speeds up my use of the printed material, but what about the videos?

I recently found a software tool that instantly more than DOUBLED my productivity studying video.

It installed it in just a few minutes and in my first 2 hours using it, I studied more than 4 hours of video!  No learning curve, it's easy to use, and my results were immediate.

Is your time important?  Do you study or watch videos?  Would you like to be much faster and efficient doing so?  If so, read on...

Have you ever caught yourself asking that?

 

Have you ever noticed that if you work late into the evening or on a weekend, when nobody else is around, sometimes you can get a whole week's worth of work done in just a few hours? Why does that happen?

 

If your work requires thought, the culprits killing your productivity are probably "Flowbusters".

 

Huh? What is flow? Why is that important? What would bust it? Can we do anything about that?
