Course Description

Overview

Turns out inspiration isn’t a muse; it’s a muscle, and you have the power to make it stronger. 

Thomas Frank isn't just a productivity expert; he's also an artist - infusing his video projects with cinematic shots and creating his own music on the side. Though years of working as an independent creator, he's learned that the same approach to productivity that works for regular tasks can also be helpful for doing more consistent (and better) creative work.

Now, Thomas is sharing his discoveries in his newest (and weirdest?) Skillshare class all about the relationship between productivity and creativity, where you'll learn:

  • Why everyone should cultivate a professional mindset, even beginners
  • How to set up your physical and digital space to work for you, not against you
  • Collaboration tactics to make your life and projects easier
  • And the art of building your inspiration like a muscle

...plus much more, including some appearances from special guests! 

No matter what kind of creative person you are, you'll leave the class with a new understanding of your own creativity — and the ways you can nurture and expand it through the simple magic of productivity. 

This class is for anyone with an interest in using productive systems to help support their creativity, whether in their hobbies or careers. You don’t need any special materials — just the usual tools you use daily, such as your computer. Thomas’ conversations with his friends and peers about how their productivity and creativity intersect will be posted weekly, starting Friday, 1/15; don’t miss them!
