I help people all over the world get better at time management and become more productive without losing sight of the things that are important in life such as family and friends and goals.
I am a writer of three books on working with new technology so you can focus on the things you enjoy doing, including the popular Your Digital Life and Your Digital Life 2.0, I know what it is like when you feel overwhelmed by the work and distractions.
“Building a life of joy and happiness begins with knowing what you want to achieve and creating a plan to go out and achieve it. My mission is to help everyone achieve their maximum potential."
Why I do what I do:
Imagine waking up every morning with a massive enthusiasm to get started. Knowing exactly what you want to accomplish that day and why you want to accomplish it. Having no stress and knowing that whatever anyone, or anything, throws at you, you can handle it with ease. When you finish your day, you do so with the feeling you have had a productive and successful day. Everyday.
That is what I teach and that is my purpose. To help everyone learn how to manage their life and their time so they can enjoy their lives and build a life they are truly proud of. If that is what you want, please join me in helping others find joy and enthusiasm in what they do and to help them build a life of happiness, success and fulfilment. We can all do it. You just need to learn how to do it.
Share this video with as many people as you can and together let us change the lives of all those who are stressed out and unhappy with their lives.

    "We are in my real Evernote account." - finally, somebody doesn't use dummy account with the use of TEST in every field, making it nearly impossible to understand the structure. In other people' guide - every notebook is a test, test stack, test tag, test field, test email. And they are great guides too, but the TEST structure is so confusing :) Sir, THANK YOU! Highly appreciated!

    I just wish there was a way to put dividers within notebooks to separate notes that share a higher overarching theme but also differ : for me as a software engineer, I like to take notes on backend engineering topics but within that area of engineering there is languages, databases, etc. and to be able to make sub-folders or something for these within the "backend engineering" notebook would be fantastic.

    That would not work well, Ken. We all work differently, have different objectives and projects. What works for one person in the way a note is structured is not going too work for another person. Some things we just have to work out for ourselves and improve on it over time.

    My first attempt at using Evernote ended with me deleting it because I could never figure out when it makes "sense" for something to rather be a stack/notebook/tag or a note. I have several papers due this fall so I'm giving it a second shot, but for university projects rather than collecting my private notes (for which I now prefer Google Keep). Wish me luck, haha!

    Because I find everything by searching on a word or phrase, I end up with a couple unanswered questions: 1) Why use multiple notebooks at all if everything is searchable? Aren't they just another layer of manual organizing slowing me down before I can save a new note? Is it because at some point they get too large and searching becomes sluggish? I've thrown everything into one notebook, including PDF manuals for my TV and contact info for new clients. Is this going to come back to haunt me someday? 2) Why use tags? Don't they do the same thing as any text I put in the note? I started out by simply throwing a text description in the top of my note, which effectively serves as searchable tags-- unless it doesn't. Is there something I'm missing about tags? Thanks for the input!

    Depends on how big your one folder is going to get. The more notes to search, the longer search terms needed to find the one you're looking for. I use just a handful of notebooks and a pre-designed system on tags to organize. Select a To Do folder, tag for Work, Priority 1 - and I have a short to do list when at work. I use different tags to store info (like manuals), or other 'to do' lists like at home.

    Use notebooks. It will help you mentally organize. Especially if you have a lot of notes. If you put notes for project in a notebook you easily scroll list in project to see all notes on project. Done with project? When you delete notebook you delete all the notes. I use evernote work. I recently deleted notebooks with hundreds of note I no longer need. I've used evernote for years. Tags are great. I used them at one time. But I wasn't consistent so they weren't useful to me. I keep a work desk notebook of several notes I use several times a day. Daily planner. Notes I update to prepare for meetings or training. Information I need quick access to. Staff directory. UEtc. I move note needed to work desk. When done I send note back to original notebook. Seeing list of notes in work desk keeps me focused.

    Hi Carl, I like your videos! I think, you miss a thing here: You can share your notebooks, but you can't share your tags. So you should structure your notebooks in a way, you want to share them to colaborate. If you don't, you could also structure your notes in just one notebook just with tags. For example "Project_x", "Project_y" and so on...

    The tags you assign to a notes do carry across, but don’t cross into the other users database; for that they would need to duplicate the note across. When I share a notebook I include a note with the shared tagging structure protocols, that note is pretagged with all the tags as well. New notes can be added with tags from that selection by any notebook member.
