Peter Akkies – Get Stuff Done with OmniFocus 3 (2022)
Do you feel overwhelmed?
Do you spend more time on urgent tasks than on important tasks?
Do you resort to pen and paper to plan your day? Have you tried using OmniFocus before, only to give up in frustration?
If so, you’re in the right place. In this video course, you’ll learn an OmniFocus workflow you can rely on.
Picture this:
- You feel less stress because you’ve got your projects under control.
- People see you as reliable because you don’t miss deadlines.
- You feel proud because you’re doing the important work.
- You know exactly what to work on next.
- Nothing slips through the cracks.
How can you get there?
By learning a simple OmniFocus workflow you can trust. And that’s what you’ll learn in this self-paced video course.
Bonus: OmniFocus project templates
The premium edition of the course comes with my OmniFocus project templates. These include my recommended setup for your OmniFocus that you can simply copy and paste. They also include sample projects, such as a “weekly review” project with my nine-step weekly review process.
Note: You can only install the project templates on macOS. Of course they’ll sync to your other devices, but you can’t directly install them on iOS or iPadOS.
Bonus: Translating Your Goals into Action (42-minute video)
The premium edition of the course also comes with a 42-minute video on translating your goals into action. In this video, you’ll learn:
- How to set useful and clear goals
- How to organize your goals
- Why it’s important to reflect on the “why” behind your goals
- The three types of action steps to define for your goals
- Why you shouldn’t put goals in your task manager
- How to put your goals’ action steps in OmniFocus without getting overwhelmed
It’s a super actionable video: I’ll show you how I set goals and translate them into action and you can follow the exact same process, step by step.
On any given day, you have dozens of things to do…
Home tasks, work projects, being there for your friends and family, staying healthy, taking care of your finances—how do you keep track of it all?
Incoming emails rule your day. You rarely get to your most important tasks because you’re always chasing deadlines. And you feel overwhelmed.
Before you know it, you forgot to buy a birthday present for your mom, your boss is nagging you about that report that was due yesterday, and you still haven’t gotten around to filing your tax return. ??
It doesn’t have to be this way.
In this course, you’ll learn how to:
- make OmniFocus an extension of your brain
- organize your projects
- plan your day and your week
- sort through your tasks
- save time with repeating tasks and project templates
- execute weekly reviews
Of course, you’ll learn lots of specific things too, like why you shouldn’t use due dates nearly as much as you’d think (?); how to actually reach Inbox Zero (??); and how to never forget a birthday again ( ?).
Your time is valuable
You’ll learn exactly what you need—no more and no less. I’ve designed the course to be efficient, because your time is valuable.
You could piece together information on using OmniFocus from random places all over the Internet. But how long would that take? And what is that time worth to you?
When you follow this course, you’ll learn everything you need to know to organize your life and to be productive using OmniFocus. You’ll save tons on time compared to figuring things out yourself.
Think about what you could do with the extra time. You could spend it with your kids. You could spend it learning to play the guitar. Or you could, you know, spend the time doing the actual work you want to do!
After you follow the course, you’ll:
- be able to focus,
- feel in control
- know what to work on next,
- save time and reduce errors,
- and have a system, so nothing slips through the cracks.
That’s what learning a workflow you can trust will do for you.

Your instructor
Hi, I’m Peter Akkies.
A few years ago, I wrote a blog post on how I used my task manager. That post blew up. So I decided to teach productivity in a more structured way. Today, I’ve taught over 1,000 happy students.
I’ve been featured on OmniFocus.com, on The Sweet Setup, and on the popular YouTube channel Keep Productive.
I’m also into scuba diving, Formula 1, the Philadelphia Eagles, World War II history, and veganism.
