In my prior post I mentioned that I am going to be offering two products: MyTimeDesign 1.0.Free and MyTimeDesign 2.0. Professional.

I went into some detail on what the “Free” product would be all about, so here’s some information on the “Professional” product.

Right off the bat I have a confession — I am still adding the final details to both Free and Professional (Pro.)  It’s been a lot of hard work, especially for Pro, which will have a new platform and feature a new level of interactivity between everyone who is doing the program.

But I get ahead of myself.

Why am I even offering a Pro version?

I have a blend of reasons as I mentioned in the prior post — I want to craft a way to help people make solid, observable, measurable progress in upgrading their time management systems.  To be honest, I also want the entire venture to be sustainable, and profitable.

As I mentioned before, the ideas embedded in good time management system are now freely available on the internet, on websites and in ebooks, and I have captured the best of them on my own website: http://2time-sys.com.  They are also available in inexpensive books and training programs.

What they are missing is the kind of post-course support that people need to turn good ideas into new habits.

Let’s take for example a New Year’s Resolution that many are about to make as we enter a new decade:  “to exercise more often.”

According to Wikipedia, only 12% of people will successfully achieve their goals, and it’s usually not because the goal is an unworthy one (most of the time.)

Instead, they fail because they don’t know how to change their habits.

Or, in other words, they don’t know what specific blend of tactics to use to support their transformation.

At the heart of MyTimeDesign 2.0: Professional is a system that I help you to put together to support yourself in changing the habits that make up your time management system.

• For a few people it means hiring me to work them individually.  I have occasionally flown in to help executives upgrade their time management systems, but I don’t recommend this option very often!  I am only willing to do this with a handful of people

• For others it might mean a set of automated reminders that don’t require one’s memory at all

• For others it might be a set of financial incentives (or penalties)

• For many (but not all) it means some kind of community, like a class team, or interactive chat room or individual coach

This is just a sample of some of the supports that can be used.  Pro is about ensuring that you make progress by crafting a set of supports that works for you, using the guidelines that I provide.

Also, this program gives the latest research that I have conducted into the 11 fundamentals of time management.  This information isn’t included in the Free product because it’s so new that it wasn’t included in MyTimeDesign 1.0.Free which only covers the first 6 fundamentals which are known as the Essentials.

Plus, in “Pro” I have come up with some new ways to make it easier for you to understand and apply the fundamentals, the belt levels and the Master Habit Plan that you’ll make.

There will be 15 weeks of core lessons, plus some important modules that I’ll be adding on topics such as the Zero Inbox.  You’ll cover them at your own pace, but with the help of your custom support system, you will be making it VERY difficult for yourself to fall off the wagon and revert to old habits.

Perhaps that’s the best way to describe the Pro version.

With my help, you’ll make it easy to continue your progress, and hard to stop.  You’ll do this by creating a supportive environment that uses the right blend of supports to keep you on track.

Some of you will need little support, while some of you will need a LOT!

Nothing right or wrong here, as we’re only looking to do what works for you.

Some people say that this is a bit like “working around yourself” and it’s true.

The internet makes it much easier than ever before to create these supports for yourself without paying a lot of money, thereby increasing the odds that you’ll be successful.

MyTimeDesign will show you how to succeed in implementing your upgrades, without assuming anything about you, your preferences, your culture, your skill-level, or even which other time management systems and tips you have used in the past.

(Oh, and by the way, I’ll be encouraging you to continue to use whatever system you have been using that’s worked for you.  If you are a Covey person, for example, you don’t have to change.  Your upgrades will build on what you have already accomplished.)

Stay tuned — there’s more to come about MyTimeDesign 2.0: Pro, but in the meantime — what do you think?  Does this resonate?  What questions would you like me to answer next?
