If you’re feeling stretched thin, unorganized, and like you have a billion priorities…
You're definitely not alone. And it's not your fault.
You know you've got what it takes. And you've tried your share of systems before. Buy nothing works quite right.
You’re tired of putting off the important things.
Your schedule could use some breathing room.
You’re chasing your to-do list, feeling like you can’t get ahead.
You’ve simply got too much to do, and not enough time to do it.
That’s because you’ve never had a system that worked for you and your life.
Here’s the problem with most systems…
Traditional methods for task and time management don’t work because they focus on the wrong things.
If you want to win back your time, you have to start with a different approach.
This is why I create the Focus Course.
Because when your life is designed…
Things become simpler.
Growth becomes normal.
And you can thrive under the tensions of life.

Your Focus Guide
👋 Hello. My name is Shawn and I am honored to be your host and guide through the Focus Course!
I’m a productivity coach to entrepreneurs and leaders. I live in Kansas City with my wife and our three boys.
For over 20 years, I have been learning and teaching about focus and margin. I’ve spoken about these topics at conferences and workshops; I've taught them to private groups and one-on-one clients; and my online courses have helped tens of thousands of people since 2015.
♥️ Married for 20 years, and we have 3 boys. Send pizza! 🍕
I used to work 80 hours per week. And even with all those hours, I still felt behind with my never-ending issues at work! I kept thinking I would eventually get ahead but of course I never did. There was always more...
Eventually I quit that job to begin working for myself. Yet I still kept chasing my to-do list. I never felt satisfied at the end of my work day; there was always more to be done. Work was always on my mind.
When my first son was born, I realized that I needed do to better. I didn’t want my work life to dominate my time. But, at the same time, I still had a strong desire to do meaningful work.
These seemingly-opposing forces shouldn’t have to fight one another. I knew it was okay to have a thriving work life while also having an awesome personal life.
I have spent years figuring out solutions related to focus.
I’ve examined my own habits, studied many other solutions, and rigorously tested different approaches over and over again. And I have worked hard to create a lifestyle that is conducive to doing my best creative work without sacrificing my personal and family life.
What you will learn inside the Focus Course are the same methods, ideas, and frameworks that have allowed me to grow a thriving business, do meaningful work I’m proud of, and give time to myself and my family.
If you’re still measuring the success of your day by the quantity of things you were able to get done, you’ll never win. Because there will always be more new things to do.
The Life Design System is for folks who want to do it all, but know they can’t.
You’re ready to slow down, get things organized, and start focusing on what truly matters the most…
…but you’re not sure where to start.
Then this is for you, and I can help.
Start here.
Let’s get you clear on the big picture of your life and your goals. And then, from there, it will be a breeze to design your perfect day.
Inside the Focus Course, you’ll get the entire Life Design System.
Because I’ve already done the heavy lifting for you, all you need to do is set aside a few minutes to yourself and follow along with your printable guidebook.
I will guide you through the right things in the right order. Here’s the plan:
1: Your Life Vision: The guidebook walks you through our proven strategy for getting things back to center. Imagine the motivation and excitement that will come from having a clear vision for your life — not to mention the calm focus you’ll experience when you no longer having competing priorities.
2: Goal Setting that Doesn’t Suck: A delightful approach for getting clear on your desired outcomes — both big and small — for each area of your life. Just imagine knowing exactly what to be focusing on right now, as well as what NOT to worry about.
3: Your Ideal Action Plan: A science-backed approach that’s not overwhelming or complicated — and that makes you 3x more likely to accomplish your goals.
4: Your Perfect Week Blueprint: You’ll design each day of your perfect week. Create an organized plan that actually works for you with a schedule that removes the things from your plate that don’t belong while holding space for the important things that only you can do.
You can’t do your best work without having space to pause, think, and plan.
And you can’t enjoy your life if you’re always super busy.
My mission is to help you get back the margin and breathing room you so desperately need and deserve.
After the Life Design System you will finally have:
A clear vision for your life
A calmer, more sane daily schedule
Breathing room in your day and week
A calendar that supports your values and goals
A reliable system for getting unstuck when things do get busy again (because we all know that life happens)
You’ll get back your focus and your spark.

Perhaps you’re not sure if you are the right fit for the Course. Or perhaps you’re not confident that an online Zoom call can produce any meaningful results in your life. We totally get it! Of course you want to trust that the investment of your time will be worth it — you want to see a return and results that will last, instead of this being just “one more thing”.
We are quite confident that if you show up, then yes, it will work for you. Why? Because the structure we teach is simple enough you can employ it in your day to day life — helping you build lasting habits from the start.
The Focus Course is for anyone who wants to increase productivity, personal integrity, morale, and overall quality of life. What sets the course apart is that it guides you in the implementation of these principles so that these topics go beyond mere head knowledge and into experiential knowledge.
There are many ideas and principles taught during the course, and they all tie together. This course will help you form an holistic picture of work/life balance, meaningful productivity, and doing work that matters.
This course has been taken by over 3,500 people and teams, folks ranging from project mangers, photographers, engineers, small business owners, designers, developers, moms, dads, office assistants, pastors, and more.
Since we are celebrating the 10-year anniversary of the Focus Course we wanted to do something special to offer for our community. This is a great opportunity to go through the course if you've been curious or have started the self-paced version and never been able to finish it.
