Course Description

32,600 Students Later, Become A Speed Demon Has Been Updated From The Ground Up!

This course will teach you the most cutting-edge tips and tricks for productivity, automation, and efficiency, so that you can do more work in less time and have more time for the things that matter in life.

—

Contrary to popular belief, productivity isn’t always about doing things faster.

If you...

  1. Don’t have enough time

  2. Have tried becoming "more productive" without much success

... chances are you’re actually working too much.

How could that be?

It’s simple.

As a student or professional looking to get the most out of your time, you know that there is a HUGE difference between:

  • Doing deep work on high-level tasks that help you accomplish your goals

  • Sitting at your desk for 8+ hours hopping from task to task... getting nowhere

So...

If you’re putting in the hours and not seeing proportional, or rather exponential results, you don’t have a productivity problem.

You have an “attention management” problem.

But what is “attention management”?

And, more importantly, how can you make it work for you rather than against you?

I’m glad you asked!

Become a Speed Demon 2.0 will answer that exact question.


The sad truth is that most of us simply don't have enough time in our daily lives to get through everything we need to do. Much less the things we want to do.

In this course from best-selling instructor Jonathan Levi, author of the blockbuster course "Become a SuperLearner," you will learn how to reclaim enough time to do just that - and so much more.

For the last 10 years, your instructor Jonathan Levi has developed a series of techniques, tips, tricks, and strategies to overcome a near superhuman workload.

From juggling a multimillion dollar business while engaged as a full time student, to running multiple companies at the same time, to leading a jam-packed travel, social, and educational calendar that would make some people's heads spin.


How Is This Possible, And How Can You, Too, Learn To Become A Speed Demon?

The course starts out with a great foundation in theory, training you on the philosophies behind efficiency, productivity, and "speeding up."

Armed with these theories and strategies, the course then dives into more nuts-and-bolts recommendations on how to speed up some of the most time-intensive activities we each do every day:

  • Working at the computer

  • Cooking and fitness

  • Interactions with others

  • Other general inefficiencies

The course takes a holistic approach to productivity and efficiency, arming you with the mindset to kick butt and speed up every aspect of your productive and creative life, in order to make time for the things that really matter.


So if you...

  • Could use an extra 1-3 hours in your day

  • Currently spend the LITTLE free time you have worrying about the endless pile of work waiting on your desk

  • Would like more time to spend with friends and family

... this course is for you.


How Is It Different From Speed Demon 1.0?

Over the last 3 years and 32,000+ students, we’ve had tens of thousands of data points and pieces of feedback, helping us improve both our methodology and our teaching practices. This new course has more (and better) content than ever before, including:

  • Completely re-written lectures emphasizing clarity and engagement!

  • All-new lectures on topics never before covered!

  • Hands-on demonstration videos for every major concept

  • Dramatically improved video and audio quality

  • Interactive worksheets to print and complete

  • Even MORE supplemental resources!

We can confidently say that this is the best, most comprehensive productivity course we’ve ever released on Udemy.

To me, all this information represents a top 10 book on productivity and procrastination. Where Jonathan discusses things like principles and what can be used to increase your productivity from setting goals, explaining the benefits of preparation, the downsides of multitasking, prioritizing, eliminating distractions, working in deep focus, using technology, how to increase your energy level , the essence of communication, accelerated decision making, and a few things that I forgot to mention. This is amazing, the knowledge is very enchanting.

Not anything new was all basic stuff, could have gotten that knowledge in youtube or google. Still the speaker is engaging and forces you to change your perspective maybe some people find that interesting.

By Jerry Washington on 1/20/2022

The course and information were well presented, and Jonathan supplied a lot of useful tips and tricks to help me balance my work and life. I continue to use Credit Karma and Mint in my financial planning. The priority star exercise showed me the steps needed to prioritize the direction on my website domain, podcast, post etc. I've already downloaded the Checklist Manifesto and will also download the Paradox of Choice as well. I will be using many of the tools shown in the course. I also recommend the book to others who have hit a roadblock in freeing up time.

Otro excelente curso de Jonathan Levi, con un amplio inventario de ideas, herramientas, consejos prácticos, referencias de autores, dirigidos a mejorar nuestra productividad, siendo toda la información muy valiosa y actualizada. Interesante reflexión sobre el outsourcing en Filipinas por las caracteristicas de su cultura. Todas las recomendaciones muy bien respaldas y de sentido común. Recomiendo ampliamente a este instructor y sus cursos para mejorar nuestro rendimiento y nuestra vida en general.

I am through lesson 29. There are a lot of reminders in this course, as I have spent quite a bit of time researching life hacking, productivity and efficiency. Lots of great stuff distilled in this short but sweet course. However, I would probably wait until the discounts come around. I don't necessarily think it's worth $100+ dollars. Lots of the suggestions, though many are free, include paid apps and services, including IFTTT, which has recently gone from a completely free to a limited free service with a paid unlimited service. So, some of the information is actually outdated. Still, I think the $10 was worth it.

By Halley Dzendolet on 8/11/2020

Great course! There were a few documents referenced that weren't available, but I think those were for the "masterclass" version. Even taking that into account, this course is well worth it. I am an entrepreneur, homeschooling SAHM (stay at home mom), and leading a major home renovation. I have many demands on my time; this course paid for itself in tips and tricks! Tomorrow, I start the SuperLearner® 2: Learn Speed Reading & Boost Memory course :)

By Anonymized User on 6/20/2020

Definitely a lot of great lessons learned from this course. Jonathan's explanations always adhered to what he was teaching and had a lot of lessons on topics that could be applied immediately! A must for anyone who wants to truly optimize their productivity in even the smallest of tasks that one does daily. The value of the time saved through everything he has explained in this course is probably incalculable and will be of great value in my life. Thank you so much for providing such a wonderful course Udemy and Jonathan!

By Vincze Ákos on 6/17/2020

I really loved this course and from the start I am trying to use all these methods. It feels like I saved tons of time right now, so I can focus on my hobbies more. Cons: There is one part (section 3) where a lot of useful programs are discussed and I think this course mainly focuses on Mac users. Btw fortunately I could find some similar ones for Windows PCs.

By Dan Bolton on 4/26/2020

There were many aspects of this course I liked and there were a few decent tips on where you can "cut corners" to save time without sacrificing quality of work/time. That being said, I feel like I spent a lot of time and money on a bunch of ads. Around half of the utilities and solutions in this course require payment and that is justified with a coffee bean analogy - sadly for us peons of society whose time isn't worth twenty coffee beans an hour, delegating daily menial tasks isn't feasible. Personally, I also got fed up with the constant stream of name dropping.

By Daniel Fockenberg on 1/7/2020

A Progress and Worksheet, which is mentioned in one video is missing. However, the two basic questions relevant for this course are given within the video (while the sheet is part of a Masterclass program). That said, the course provides you with some valuable knowledge or reminder regarding how to sort out your life. While it won't answer all your questions in every detail, it serves as a good starting point. I would say it is worth the 10 euros. However, what any course is really worth to you depends on what you put into it and whether you really use what is provided. Passive consumption won't help you, but real application of what is provided could improve your life.
