Time Management Secrets: 10X Your Productivity In 41 Minutes

It’s a bit theoretical at this stage (middle of second lesson). However it looks like a good helicopter view on time management with fundamentals.

Thanks for all the tips. I think this will have a positive impact on the quality of my work from now on.

This free course was amazing and inspiring! It has inspired me to value how I decide to spend my time. Thank You for these tools.

thank you so much for this course it was very helpful and inspiring, I have to go watch it again to get more tips and info. thank you

This is a great course! Simple, well put together and to the point. I am confident that by implementing the skills and pointers given in this course, I will help myself get to where I want to get to in an effective way and a timely manner. I enjoyed this course very much.

This course is common knowledge. It should not have been created as it is so basic and repeats very basic concepts that have been written before.

Short course, but with specific lists with suggestions to improve time management. Very good graphics and voice of lector. Nice to watch and listen :)

You spoke about a lot of time management hacks. Which made a lot of sense. What I enjoyed most from the course is the list of applications I can use for time management, ranging from apps for meeting setup, email reminder and so on.

I have just started to work as a manager. What I have yet learned from this course is that I have to take care of my self, so that I could do my work well.

This course has been fantastic. It explains Time management very well in a simple manner but effective.

Silviu applies a practical approach to time management that transcends both personal and professional environments. Time Management Secrets is a great resource for anyone seeking answers to how to rebound from unexpected circumstances or in need of a strategy for better time management in general.

Review Perhaps the first point I should make is that this course is a FREE course and so the only resource you may feel you have wasted, is your time. Certainly no money was spent. That said, as it is a free course there is no Q/A so a major opportunity to discuss further time management secrets is lost. True there is a list of other courses but really the Q/A should be seen as an integral part of any course – similar to a discussion in class – and as this is missing, the course suffers. Aside from the lectures and resources themselves the only real place for discussion is if commenting on the Educational Announcements. These can be useful if they are relevant, regular and up to date. Silviu (the Instructor) wastes these. He just posts regular Educational Announcements urging us to write a review. They add nothing to the course and, because an opportunity is missed, are irritating. At the very least he could add a ‘new’ secret with every Announcement and THEN urge a review. Now to the course itself. The whole course is only 42 minutes so there is not really much to review. The first lecture is merely an encouragement for us to NOT be on see this Udemy course as our main source but to follow on YouTube and join a Facebook group. The Facebook group contains numerous relevant articles – and, of course, advertisements for the Instructor’s courses. Although the articles seem good they are, in fact, often repeated such as the SQ3R method. Also although there are 9.5K members I saw virtually nothing from these members – maybe the Facebook group is not so useful after all. OK back to the course. 1. The struggle is real – deals with distractions. Clear graphics. 2. Areas for Improvement identifies pain points 3. Your 24 hour schedule – basic advice for body, heart and mind 4. Your psychological work environment -management and leveraging of emotions at work -looks at anxiety, frustration and happiness 5. Your work schedule – good advice Free up your brain….. By lecture 9 (Maximising your brain) I was beginning to get bored. Graphics, cartoons etc are all very fine but I’d like to see a human, I’d like to have real-life examples ‘Time secrets of Millionaires ‘ is on YouTube and some practical examples. This course, though competent, is becoming too repetitive in delivery and style. Sections 3 and 4 are more of the same. The final lecture is asking for an honest review and ways to improve the course. OK this (in my opinion) is how the course could be improved: 1. Do not make it free. You could still give out free coupons but at least there would be a Q/A for discussions – based in real life – of ways people manage their time 2. Use Educational Announcements for new information, not to keep pushing for a review 3. If encouraging Facebook – which takes people away from the course – have a wide variety of up to date articles rather than repeating ones. For example, the March 2nd 2023 article in the Facebook group is from April 11th 2020. 4. Have variety of delivery in the course. For example, why not include a YouTube clip or two, perhaps showing Elon Musk’s time management tips or a clip from a TED talk. 5. How about some time management secrets from billionaires – someone famous that students will recognise and can relate to? 6. Further references e.g. links or even published studies? 7. Quotation to begin each section 8. Maybe a quiz? 9. Summary lecture perhaps expanding on the most important time management secret of all? Of course it can be argued that adopting these suggestions would make the course a lot longer – perhaps double the length. But, so what? If it gets students interested in a) content but also b) presentation then reviews will be good and sales will follow. In terms of content there’s nothing actually bad about this course – it’s just somewhat colourless, repetitive in delivery, lacking real-world examples, lacking variety of presentation, absence of human input and absence of areas for further research. Yes, it’s free – but that’s actually a disadvantage as no Q/A. And that, is my honest review.

This course is well organized and clearly presented, and the information is good. The sound quality could be improved for easier listening.

This is a very clear course; and truly motivating. What makes you reflect on your self-control and discipline in general; while prompting you to take control of your own life.

This instructor explains the difference between top performers and those who struggle with time management. The course was jam-packed with explanations of how we can change our mindset, habits and use the best resources to achieve our goals. I took notes and I've begun implementing these concepts. Great course!
