NOTE
In the course, I go over some productivity apps which might ask you for your email address, and some productivity products which are not free. I DO NOT collect any revenue or your emails for myself. I do not benefit from promoting those productivity products/apps. The only reason I recommend them in the course is that I think they will help you achieve the goals of the course.
