Supercharge Your Productivity

“I thought I was productive. Then I realized I was just busy.”

We get this a lot. Supercharge your Productivity is the only course that connects the pursuit of productivity to life’s larger questions so you can design a system that works for you.

Get more done by working smarter (and without working longer hours)

Stuck on the hamster wheel, making list after list but feeling like you’re not moving somewhere meaningful?

Nod along if this resonates:

The daily whirlwind of activities sweeps you away while your greatest priorities take a back seat.
You don’t have clarity about which projects to pursue to bring you closer to your goals
You’re overwhelmed by the firehose of information which bombards you with emails, Slack and texts from every angle
You feel like you’re serving your productivity set up, constantly tweaking, customizing and reorganizing your to-do list
You keep tackling the “small” things and putting off the “big” things, but you don’t know how to break the cycle

Those “small” things? We call those $10 tasks.

The low-skill, low-leverage things that feel good to check off in the moment (like getting to Inbox Zero or organizing your Kindle Highlights).

These are the tasks you could do hungover — so why are you doing them at 9am on Tuesday?

$10 tasks release dopamine in our brain, but don’t really move the needle on your life’s biggest priorities.

Sure, they feel good when you cross them off your to-do list. (I mean, c’mon that SWOOSH sound is delicious.) But at the end of the day, you still feel like you failed to take concrete steps towards your goals.

And it’s way too easy to spend your days checking off $10 tasks, drowning in details that don’t matter, and lying to yourself that “when” something happens, “then” it will solve everything.

When I get a promotion, THEN I’ll be happier.

When this project ends, THEN I'll feel calm.

When I land that new client, THEN I can stop working weekends.

When I go on that luxury vacation, THEN I’ll be able to relax.

When I buy that bigger house, THEN my marriage will improve.

When I get more Twitter followers, THEN my business will be successful.

So why does it never deliver? Because this “When-Then” thinking is a trap and keeps you on the hamster wheel.

And when it comes to productivity, we think: WHEN I find the right productivity tool, THEN I’ll get everything done (and finally get off my phone on the weekends. And be present for my kids.)

So you jump from to-do list app to app, thinking, “If I just find the right tool/system, I’ll get everything done.”

You try out new Shiny New Toys, like:

Superhuman, thinking it will solve the firehose of email
You start and put down (for the 5th time) David Allen’s Getting Things Done
A fancy Moleskine notebook, thinking that a nice-looking agenda will help you finally feel in control of your to-do list
An Oura Ring in pursuit of 8.5 hours of restful sleep

And you’re not new at this productivity thing -- you’ve tried the Eisenhower Matrix, Bullet Journaling or the principles of GTD, you know productivity frameworks.

So why do you still not feel calm, peaceful, and satisfied with what you’ve accomplished? Why do you still feel like you’re constantly context switching, procrastinating endlessly, and struggling to focus?

When you’re drowning in $10/hour work, it’s physically impossible to do work that actually moves the needle on your life.

There’s more expected of us than ever before. And getting more done is not the solution. For the average professional, fitting yet another “Pick my Brain” coffee into a packed schedule is easy. But making time for thinking, meditation, taking a walk, or napping?? Impossible.

Those "small" things you keep tackling? Those are the $10 tasks. Tasks like...

Responding to endless emails
Color-coding your Google Calendar
Spending hours discussing whether Roam or Notion improves your "creativity"

The "big" things are the things that will pay off in the future. Their impact compounds over time, but it's way too easy to hit snooze on them because they don't have an immediate payoff. And that’s a big problem.

The way to get off the hamster wheel? It starts with identifying (and actually doing) your $10,000 per hour work

$10,000/hour work is the exact opposite of its $10 per hour work brethren. There’s no swoosh sound when you complete it. Zero dopamine. The results take longer. So like the proverbial “Important, but Not Urgent,” it becomes easy to kick the can down the road. I’ll “snooze” on my "learning how to be a better spouse" for a day. A week. A year. A career. A lifetime.

$10K Work is a peculiar cocktail of your industry, skills, passions, curiosities, relationships, introspection and vision. It’s planting important seeds for the future. Even 25 minutes a day of $10K tasks can have compounding effects.

$10K Work is leveraging a unique skill. $10K Work can transform your life.

$10K Work is…

Hiring and training a customer service team member so you can surf while your customers are taken care of (ummm, yup true story)
Clearing your calendar every week to spend quality one-on-one time with each of your kids
Building a daily “shutdown” ritual to ensure you get 9 hours of sleep every night
Cold DM’ing a journalist to deepen your company’s brand awareness
Creating your own podcast to develop “thought leadership” in your niche
Committing to engaging one potential lead each week
Investing in your marriage with coaching or therapy

Meanwhile, $10 Work is chasing productivity system after productivity system, trying to fit your unique needs into a cookie-cutter solution.

$10K Work is building your own personalized system for productivity so you can get the right things done (without working longer hours).

And I can help you do that.

I’m Khe Hy. I know what it’s like to mindlessly optimize your life (and still feel like nothing clicks)

In my twenties, I was a lean, mean productivity machine. I created an alternative shorthand keyboard on my Blackberry to reduce my keystrokes by 80%. I devoured audiobook biographies of Steve Jobs and other great leaders by listening to them at 2.5x normal speed. I even optimized my workouts by cramming the most efficient exercise (burpees) into the most efficient form of interval training (the four-minute Tabata).

I was making good money, and from the outside, I seemed successful. I had graduated with a degree in computer science from Yale and reached the coveted position of being one of the youngest Managing Directors at the financial services firm BlackRock on Wall Street.

My life looked like a productivity masterpiece, but under the surface I was just going through the motions unfulfilled. I was following a broken playbook, someone else’s playbook. And it felt like the addition of any one thing would cause my entire system to collapse.

I was one step ahead of the curve, but the curve was breathing down the back of my neck, whispering, “You’re not doing enough. More.”

I’d get a bonus…go out to dinner and get a nice bottle of wine, buy a new pair of Air Maxes, and maybe upgrade our hotel room for our next vacation.

And then four weeks would go by, and my existential angst — a numbness in my soul — would start creeping back in. It’d be like, ‘Knock, knock. You thought that bonus was going to make me go away. I’m baaaaaaaaack.’

Then my health started taking a hit.

I struggled with Alopecia -- a chunk of my hair fell out and I had to spray paint hair on my head for a friend’s wedding. I grinded the enamel off my teeth because of anxiety. I needed a steady stream of coffee or Diet Coke to stay awake, and then a drink to wind down after a long day.

I was just going through the motions of life. I found myself asking: “is this what the next 40 years of my life is going to look like?”

In order to spend more time doing the things that mattered most, something had to change.

In my twenties, the answer was simple (and embarrassingly naive). I wanted to make more money. I thought that the more time I’d free up, the more money I could make.

But when I realized I wasn’t doing what really mattered to me, I quit.

I dedicated my time to a little passion project, the email newsletter called RadReads, which had 36 subscribers at the time. I was ‘building the plane as I was flying it,’ and supporting our family of four with a portion of my savings.

Seven years later, 50,000+ hardworking, inquisitive learners like you read my work every week. I have a business that supports my family. I have a talented team committed to our mission. I feel good about what I do.

And while I still work 30 hours a week and have my dose of entrepreneurial stress, each morning I run out of bed (after 8.5 hours and sans-alarm, obvi) energized, enthusiastic, and regret-free. If I won the lottery, I’d spend my days exactly the same way.

My writing has been featured across numerous publications.

Getting here wasn’t simple. I did a lot of intentional work to define my personal $10K Work, and then set up systems and habits to support that. I planted seeds early on that paid off in spades down the road (and harnessed the power of compounding interest, both in my finances and in my habits). Still, I wished I would have had a system to guide me through how I could live a fulfilling and happy life on my own terms. But it didn’t exist during that transition in my life. So I went out and built it.

Now? I spend more time checking the surf report than checking my email. I worry less. I know what matters, and I do the most important and high-leverage work first.

I saw that when I got really clear on my priorities, put $10K Work first, and built a productivity system in Notion to support my life vision, I had more time for family and friends. I had more time to surf every day (while expanding my business and profits), which makes me come alive.

And when I started teaching my methods, I saw students experience the same freedom and tap into that joy.

I saw the students of Supercharge Your Productivity come alive.

Introducing Supercharge Your Productivity

Design a system for identifying and implementing your most impactful $10K Work so you can achieve your life goals (and step off that damn hamster wheel).

You’ll learn to ask the right questions and design your own system that will allow you to:

Always know what to do next
Feel like you've got things under control (in work and life)
Finally feel on top of everything
Finally be able to focus on the things you really want to accomplish
Be happier and less stressed
Get the important things done while savoring every moment of life

Shripriya Mahesh, Founding Partner at Spero Ventures

“This is more than a productivity class. It’s about figuring out what really matters to you, why it matters, and how to make time for those things that matter."

Chris Kawaja, Founder at Catarina Ranch Investments

"Supercharge your Productivity has unlocked a hidden superpower. It's positively impacted my real estate business and I'm making better decisions, faster and more confidently. The course paid for itself after the first class, but the value keeps growing every month."

David Gerber, COO at Circa | Managing Member at Cove Investments

“Personally I realized I’d been living my life based on the expectations of others. It took me 50 years to understand that. It took Supercharge Your Productivity two weeks to reveal that critical insight.”

Take a peek inside Supercharge Your Productivity

You'll experience the simple 4-part system you can use to master $10K Work and get more done by working smarter.

See the big picture of your life

“I don’t have any time to think,” is a recurring complaint from our overwhelmed students. If you’re always in react mode, it becomes impossible to see the big picture – your why – more clearly. However, mending the difference between your daily tasks and big dreams is the key to getting more done, realistic prioritization and effective time management. You’ll learn how to ask yourself the critical questions that will become your North Star and keep you aligned with your values. You’ll start implementing a proven system which connects your why to the what and how.

Using leverage to maximize your personal ROI

The special (yet overlooked) ingredient to most productivity frameworks is leverage. You’ll learn how to categorize all your tasks and activities across the 4 quadrants of the matrix, so that you can keep your career, business and projects growing while you’re not working. You’ll stop confusing efficiency and effectiveness and we’ll deconstruct real-world examples of entrepreneurs who scaled their companies, managers who lead high-performing teams and corporate rebels who routinely turn their bucket list into a reality.

Stack the Deck in Your Favor with $10K Task Management

Finally a task management philosophy that closes “open loops” and reduces the time spent asking yourself “What should I be working on?” Khe will distill 25 years of productivity research into an actionable set of principles around energy management, quick capture, removing due dates and using meta-data so that the right tasks always find you. You’ll learn how to create the right foundations (i.e. lists of tasks) to focus on the right projects while also tending to the “Important, but not Urgent” parts of your life like your family, health and personal finances. And as a bonus, learn the atelic/telic mindset to reframe the non-productive moments of your life and truly give yourself permission to relax.

Set your future self up for a win

The Weekly Review is the keystone habit that brings everything together. (Yet it’s the habit that eludes pretty much all high-performing knowledge workers.) You’ll learn how to de-construct the Weekly Review into four distinct parts so that you can set the right priorities and actually keep yourself accountable. You’ll learn how to get “on top of things” and “in control” of your life – and never slip back into fire-fighting mode ever again. Our built-in template will make this process seamless and you’ll be able to complete your review in under 25 minutes.

Matt Petre, Director at Invesco

“Supercharge Your Productivity freed up time and mental capacity. It enabled me to focus, prioritize, and be more productive everyday while executing on the ideas that I’ve had scattered across my notes and brain with no structure whatsoever."

Special Bonus Offer

Built-For-You Life Operating System

We’ve built a Life Operating System in Notion for you so you can implement the SYP system right away, without tinkering in Notion.

This isn’t your typical $5 Notion template: it coincides with all of the key foundations of the course, and you can’t find this anywhere else.

Add the Life Operating System when you check out to level up your experience.

“SYP showed me how time management and productivity are vehicles for self-growth, happiness, and living a joyful life - not just overwhelming to-do lists that need to be ‘tamed’ or ‘hacked’.

One hesitation I had before buying the course was wondering if this would just become one in another long line of courses, books, programs I would go through as a way to "feel" productive, then forget about 6 months later. Another shiny toy.

It turned out to be the opposite - the antidote to shiny object syndrome and the last productivity course I'll ever need.”

“The learnings are invaluable and it feels like the gift that keeps on giving.”

Khe is a phenomenal, thoughtful, and incredibly intentional facilitator who goes above and beyond to make sure you extract the most value for your own wants and desires.

Brandi the Greatest, Vice President at I Am Gym Foundation

“Supercharge your Productivity made me less afraid of systems. It made me see that connectivity IS possible. It has given me room to invest more time into creating systems --because I know that the investment will produce value for myself, for my clients and for others."

"You can't be serious. Will Supercharge Your Productivity really change my life?"

Is a 4-week course really enough time to find the impactful, $10K Work you keep talking about? Here’s what you can expect to get out of it…

1 Week from now

You’ll have a breakthrough and recognize what motivational factor has been undermining your productivity for years. You’ll have the tools necessary to apply deep self-inquiry on the tasks and projects you never end up getting around to doing.

2 Weeks from now

The clown car in your head will turn into a calm and serene pond. How? You’ll dump all your tasks, notes, idea fragments, trackers, web clippings and highlights into a unified system that you’ll actually trust and use. You’ll stop wasting precious brain cycles worrying about finding those frequent flier numbers, missing your Grandma’s birthday and where to save those receipts for your taxes.

4 Weeks from now

Your Weekly Review will become second nature. For 25 minutes each week (armed with a blank notebook and a hot cup of tea) you’ll revisit your goals (“Start my blog”), bucket list (“Take a 3-month explore Europe by bicycle”) and those pesky things that don’t have due dates (“read for 45 minutes with my daughter.”) You’ll be overcome with an enduring sense of ease and confidence that you are tending to your life’s most important priorities (without that nagging would’ve-could’ve-should’ve feeling.)

6 Weeks from now

The leverage will kick-in. Your free time and autonomy will skyrocket (and you’ll feel like you’re cheating at life). This leverage will come in many forms. The Keystone Habit will ensure your biggest health and work priorities are on autopilot. Relationships you nurtured will turn to clients, recruits (and even possible love interests). The compounding effect of investing in yourself and your team will create a groundswell of opportunity, financial reward, and — most importantly — joy.

1 Year from now

You’ll be promoted to Chief Happiness Officer. Whether it’s at home, with your roommates or your team, everyone around you will be wondering, “What’s gotten into you?” You’ll make hitting Big Hairy Audacious Goals (whether it’s starting a company or pivoting your career) look effortless, you’ll stare down adversity with equanimity and resilience, your bank account will grow (if that’s on your goal list) and your magnetism will attract the most incredible people and opportunities into your orbit.

Most importantly, you’ll be consumed by an enduring sense of calm, fulfillment and joy. After all, you’re now the Chief Happiness Officer.

These professionals, entrepreneurs, parents, leaders, and creators learned to find their $10K Work, ask the right questions, and step off the hamster wheel to live life on their own terms.

Dan Runcie, Founder at Trapital Media

“As a solo-entrepreneur, time is my most valuable asset. But I would end my weeks and feel disappointed I didn't get more done. The course's templates and "$10K work" framework reshaped how I structure my weeks. I now get more work done in less time, and feel less exhausted by Friday afternoon. Can't recommend this course enough."

Miron Constant, Head of UX at ShiftLeft

“I feel much more organized, and it is easy to find what I need when I need it, it has really been worth the time investment to set it all up."

You might be wondering… (aka the FAQ section)

Do I have access to the live sessions with Khe?

No. This version of the course contains recordings of the previous cohort.

If I don’t plan to use Notion, will I get a lot out of this course?

Absolutely! While we won’t hide our love for the customizable platform that makes our personal productivity effortless, we recognize and will teach you that success is never really about the tool you use. We’ll help you ask the right questions so that you can choose (or stick with) the tool that makes the most sense for your work and personal life.

How much time do I really need to invest to get the most out of Supercharge Your Productivity?

We recognize that you’re busy — that’s why you’re taking this course. And that’s also why we talk a lot about the Minimum Recommended Dose: the minimum amount you need of this program to take away huge benefits.

If you watch the first hour of the 6 live sessions with Khe, you’re going to transform your relationship with your time and your to-do list. That’s just 2 hours per week for 3 weeks. Plus, you’ll work through the lessons to implement changes in your workflow during that time. There’s no homework.

How long will I have access to the course for?

How does forever sound? After enrolling, you have unlimited access to this course for as long as you like — across any and all devices you own.

I’m really interested in the course but it’s not financially possible for me right now. Do you offer any scholarships?

We sure do. We encourage you to submit an application.

Do you price match to reflect currency exchange rates for students outside the US?

No, we do not price match due to the complexity of the international financial market fluctuations.

However, we do encourage you to submit an application for financial aid for the chance at receiving a reduced rate according to your situation.

I still have questions. Who can I ask?

Feel free to send us an email at (hello@radreads.co) with any outstanding questions.

It’s possible to live life on your own terms. I want that for you.

You wouldn’t have read this whole page if you didn’t see it (or at least wonder about it): the possibility of getting off the hamster wheel of achievement and onto something better. The possibility that this is for you. The possibility that what’s been missing hasn’t just been a tool like Notion. It’s been the mindset shift that goes with using a tool like Notion to live a better life.

But I get it. It’s not easy to jump in. Especially after you’ve tried so many other things.

If you choose not to join this cohort and find other ways to build a personal system and reach your loftiest goals, I’m rooting for you.

When you join Supercharge Your Productivity, we’ll help you stop the overwhelm, find your why, leverage your unique skills for $10K Work, and live life on your terms. We’ll show you how.

We built Supercharge your Productivity because we want that for you.

You matter to the people around you. It’s time that they know it. It’s time for you to have time for yourself. It’s time to find a healthy structure. It’s time to take control of your life.

SYP12 was a unique experience that could take a lifetime of reading and learning to attempt to achieve the level of self-awareness provided during the course. The toolkit and exercises are invaluable.

Paul Cochrane

Partner, Just Legal KK

I should have signed up for SYP earlier! I delayed because of the cost but almost immediately after starting I knew it was worth the money. I got what I came for in terms of a productivity system, which relieved a constant sense of overwhelm, plus my eyes were opened to what I should prioritise in my life, in line with my values. Thank you, Khe and team!

I’ve stopped wrestling with the endless quest for “more” and found joy in tiny moments. I’m regularly balancing my commitments from a healthier and more holistic perspective. Sometimes I even go on walks without headphones!

Derek Baynton

Sales & Go to Market Consultant, Accenture

"Loved this course in ways I never expected. I was surprised to see how much ongoing support was provided to dive deeper into whatever topics or projects I wanted to focus on, and there were tons of opportunities to catch a glimpse into the "art of the possible" for areas of improvement I wouldn't have thought to try. Highly recommend, enjoy it!"

Annemarie Munk, Founder and Director, The Swim Lab Asia

Ben Hester

Group Product Design Manager at Intuit

"My productivity system hasn't been holding up as my job and life responsibilities have grown so I have been searching and trying tools and systems that just weren't sticking. I'm so glad I took the leap and signed up for Supercharge Your Productivity, Khe and his team took the best of the best practices I knew about (GTD, atomic habits, etc.) and brought them together into a system powered by Notion. More importantly, I was pushed to explore and articulate my greater purpose – the goals that are most meaningful to me – so all my habits and tasks were in service to my bigger picture. While there's much more work to do I feel confident I have a solid foundational system I can rely on."

Joe Fernandez

Co-founder & CEO Co-founder & CEO at Joymode

"As a startup CEO, my job is to drive clarity and focus throughout our organization. My secret embarrassment has always been that I don't even feel clear and focused in my own life.

The challenge I've had with all previous attempts at getting organized was that whatever formula or structure someone else cooked up, it never felt right for me. After a few days or weeks I would feel the strain of working in a model that wasn't my own and ditch it.

For the first time ever, I feel like I have a grasp on all aspects of my life in a structure that is purpose built for only me. Khe's class has given me a framework to think about what's important to me and the technical tools to support not just my current life but the life I hope to live."

Sara No Socks, Community Operations Consultant

"I find I'm more comfortable with my path forward. I left my job to step away and re-evaluate what was next for me. SYP was helpful in setting a framework to ask important questions regularly, and tying those to the actions I take each day to be more intentional with my life."

Roxine Kee

Media & Marketing @ Cabin

"It was thanks to SYP last year that I’ve been able build systems that let me work just 8 hours a week and take time off in December… and still have things humming along."

Maymie Chan

Chiropractor

"I realized I've been bored out of my mind because I've been playing it safe in both my professional and personal life to avoid burn out again. My first cautious step back into the world of high productivity, I found Khe's work. A month later, I signed up for SYP. "When you're ready, the teacher will appear." His teaching is an intersection of mindfulness x productivity x systems, and exactly what I needed to feel confident in moving forward towards my truth north while meeting my own checkpoints, not anyone else's.

For me, that meant being a well-rounded human being who can discern what is meaningful work, be highly productive in the traditional sense, and still make time to do whatever the heck brings me and my loved ones true joy. I'm so grateful for Khe and the whole SYP team - y'all da bomb!"

Kristin Joys

Educator & Impact Strategy Consultant

SYP is like functional medicine for overachievers. Instead of putting bandaids on problems (like buying shiny new tech toys because we think they're going to be magic bullets solving our productivity challenges), we get to the root of the problem by learning new ways of thinking -- the $10k Mindset (the $10k framework, $10k flywheel, $10k questions, weekly review, etc).

SYP is truly a transformative experience. Connecting with other students in the SYP community together on the journey to "lead more productive, examined, and joyful lives" was an unexpected bonus-- everyone is so thoughtful, kind, and generous with their time, talent, attention, and energy. I'm glad & grateful to be part of it all!

Kevin Sutardji

Founder, Kurative Co.

I honestly thought I'd have a chill and uneventful February... I WAS WRONG!

Khe's 4-week Supercharge Your Productivity course was deep, mind-blowing, & life-changing! 🤯

Come for the productivity, stay for the Existential! Highly recommend! 🙏
