10 years of programming in corporations taught me systems thinking. But it also showed me I didn't want to be just a task-checking robot. Since 2015, I've been helping people find their own personal approach to productivity — to live on their own terms, with more joy in everyday life.
Why do I do what I do?
In 2015, I quit a well-paying corporate job. Why? Because I realised I wanted to help people — not just check off meetings and tasks. When I was trying to become more productive, generic advice frustrated me — with no concrete guidance, and completely irrelevant to me and my situation. I was missing a simple SYSTEM that connected GTD, Pomodoro, and other techniques — something flexible and personal. What works for one person may not work at all for another!
So I started collecting and organising these techniques — building blocks that anyone can use to create a system tailored to their own life and situation.
After 10 years of training and courses: 40,000+ students, 20,000 positive reviews, hundreds of workshops for Google, Hitachi, ABB and others. Plus over 20 podcasts, dozens of webinars. But what matters most to me are messages like: "I finally found a system that works for me".
I love the kind of productivity that preserves what's deeply human — our emotions, passions, talents, intuition. Outside of training, I'm a musician — drummer, DJ, I play guitar and handpan. That's where the emotional, the intuitive, the beyond-words lives — something you can't "check off", but simply feel. That's the kind of productivity I believe in: one that helps you fulfil your dreams and live more deeply, on your own terms.

Why "Productivity by Heart"?
Why "Productivity by Heart"?
Most time management methods treat you like a machine — do more, faster, more efficiently. Productivity by Heart treats you like a human being with emotions, energy and a need for freedom.
Productivity at a slow pace — because life is a marathon, not a sprint. It's not about checking off tasks, but building a life aligned with your values. Do what matters, at your own pace, with respect for yourself.
Here, daily tasks connect with long-term goals, habits align with values. That's why I created the 4R Framework: four dimensions that bring your productivity together into one coherent system.
