WELCOME!

What an honor to have you on this exciting learning journey.

Your interest and commitment to your improved productivity signifies you are one of the exceptional, standout achievers
of our time.

Your choice—your decision to quickly answer the call, to make the investment—demonstrates that greatness resides within
you (perhaps more than you might realize at this moment).

And that greatness is why I designed this program. Over the 12 learning modules we will journey through together I’ll help
you further draw out and embolden that greatness. I’ll help you remove any constraints or doubts that might be limiting
you or holding you back. Together, we’ll eliminate those hindrances that have been suppressing your greater capabilities
and potential.

If there has ever been a time to equip oneself to become insanely focused, insanely disciplined and insanely productive
now is that time. For the bold, ambitious, and progressive-minded achiever, now is the greatest time of opportunity in hu-
man history. The Internet, new media, and ever-evolving technologies are radically changing the game. They are shaking up
the status quo and reshuffling the decks of those who control the marketplace, giving rise to new ideas, new solutions, and
new opportunities. Now is when new wealth will be born.

And right now, through this program, the new—and improved—you will be born. I guarantee life will never be the same
after you complete this journey with me.

You will also be in extraordinary company. Those who have also joined this program are unique and exceptional, and they
hail from states, provinces, and countries from all around the world. They are the birds of your feather. Be sure to spend
some time connecting with them through our private Facebook group.

Welcome to the INSANE PRODUCTIVITY program. I am glad you are here.

Your friend in SUCCESS,

Darren Hardy

Scores:
0-5: Clean as a Whistle - You are either 95 years old, live under a bridge or you often lie compulsively to make yourself feel better
about your distraction addictions. Sorry to call you out like that, somebody had to.

6-10: Social Drinker - You probably have real friends, play sports and actually have a significant other. Either that or you’ve recently
been released from smartphone rehab and haven’t slipped back to the old ways yet.

10-19: Coffee Fiend - Your addiction is medically certain, but it’s not killing you or your productivity. It’s certainly taxing your
adrenals and suppressing your greater, more organic potential, but hey, who is perfect.

20-29: Chain smoker - You recognize that you’re addicted and you’re trying to quit (but not that hard). Be aware that your
addictions are starting to ruin your social interactions, between signing out of the real world every 10 seconds and stinking up the
room when you enter. People do talk behind your back about it too. Just know that.

30-39: Pothead - You’re addicted, but you have no desire to quit. The technology has drained every bit of ambition to get sober out
of you. Yes, lunch will be soon. We don’t want to see you sneaking around the back with your smartphone either. It’s probably time
for counseling.

40-49: Crack head - You get all shaky when you even think about your smartphone, always searching for your next fix. Family
members are planning to stage an intervention and check you into a clinic. Shock therapy actually sounds exciting to you though.

50: Perma-fried - There’s no higher brain activity going on anymore. Doctors should prescribe you video games and/or marijuana
for medicinal purposes. Just to keep you from flat lining.

The first step to change is acknowledgement:

My name is ____________________________________ and I am an addict.

I hereby commit to listening intently on how to break these terrible productivity-crushing addictions that are crippling my
performance and wrecking my potential.

The “What Am I Missing?” syndrome. __________________________
Human need: Belonging, to be “in the herd”; inclusion. __________________________
__________________________
Called “continuous partial attention.” “Always scanning __________________________
the periphery in case something more important surfaces.
__________________________
To be busy and connected is to feel alive, but the
__________________________
consequence is we are over-stimulated, overwound, and
ultimately unproductive and unfulfilled.” __________________________
– Linda Stone, former Apple and Microsoft researcher __________________________

It’s random _____________________. The fact that you __________________________
don’t know when important news will come means you will __________________________

__________________________
Busy can feel ___________________! __________________________
We feel important, needed, validated, “productive” and __________________________

feel accomplished. But “productivity” is a false comfort and, __________________________
ultimately, unproductive. __________________________
__________________________
Everyone likes to look busy. Some make a career out of it. __________________________
Zooming around, accomplishing very little. __________________________
It’s called: ______________ ______________. __________________________
__________________________
We are psychologically conditioned

Notes:______________________
Rest is a critical component of HIGH-PERFORMANCE. __________________________
__________________________
Because your body craves oscillation. __________________________
__________________________
The problem is the absence of __________________ and __________________________
intermittent recovery. Chronic stress without recovery de- __________________________

and ultimately undermines performance. __________________________

The greater the performance demand,

The Achievement Addiction:
Notes:______________________
There’s always a __________________
__________________________
between where you are and where you want to go.
__________________________
“The push to achieve can itself become an addiction, __________________________
and like an addict, you’re only as good as your last __________________________
achievement fix.” __________________________
–Jim Loehr __________________________
__________________________
RESULT: Protracted frustration and disillusionment. __________________________
__________________________
Vicious Cycle of Despair
__________________________
_____________ > _____________ >
__________________________
_____________ > _____________ > ..............
The chase itself can become obsessive. __________________________
It’s called the “Hedonic Treadmill.” __________________________
__________________________
Meet Karl: __________________________
Valedictorian & captain of football team, graduated __________________________
Princeton (3.8GPA), MBA from NYU, within 3 years CEO __________________________
multinational public corporation, income in 7-figures. __________________________
“I’m addicted to achievement. I’m never satisfied with my __________________________
accomplishments. I always push for more. No matter what __________________________
I do, it never seems enough to bring me happiness... Even
__________________________
though I know I have achieved a lot, I have a persistent
__________________________
feeling of emptiness inside. I keep hoping that my next
achievement will bring me the inner peace and sense of __________________________
personal value that I am longing for.” __________________________
__________________________
Vicious Cycle of Despair __________________________
Then when people feel the emptiness of achievement they __________________________
take a “brute force” approach: I’ll do more of this until it __________________________
feels good. Instead, stop and consider: Could it be that I am __________________________
chasing the wrong thing? __________________________

Designing a
LIFE
What kind of LIFE do I want to have?

Describe how you want to live, as a responsible businessperson who has to produce an
income doing something.

Consider several of the components below in drafting your life’s description.

Of course don’t forget to involve these components: amount of time and doing what with family,
friends, spirituality, fitness, hobbies and other interests.

 Type/caliber of people you work with  Amount of travel, to where, in what style
 Size of team  Environment
 Number of products  Time of day demands (early morning, late
 Margin nights, etc.)
 Cash flow demands  Days of week demands
 Inventory carry  Family involved or not
 Type of marketplace  Friends involved or not (on team or as clients)
 Logistics demands  Leveraged use of my strengths
 Scalability potential  Leveraged use of my interests
 Liability risks  Engages my passion, fires me up, gets me out
 Kind of clients of bed excited
 Equity position and potential  Needed communication accessibility
 Growth potential  Ability to get away – long weekends and
 Financial potential vacation days
 Industry recognition potential
 Competitive landscape
