“Deep Work:” SCHEDULE IT like a Doctor’s appointment

This Master Class on Asset Raising has all the right content and success strategies investment managers and their staff can use to raise assets and build a successful investment management business.

 

But here’s the truth: watching the videos is only the beginning.

 

The real transformation happens when you think and transfer—by completing the workbooks and applying the ideas directly to your fund strategy, your marketing, your investor materials, your positioning.

 

That’s why I strongly encourage you to schedule what I like to call a:

  • Transformation Time
  • CEO Block
  • Strategic Focus Session
  • or simply: Deep Work


Whatever label works for you, block out time in your calendar to actually work through the exercises and reflect on what this means for your firm.

 

During this time:
 

✅ Complete the course workbook pages.

✅ Brainstorm about new, specific goals.

✅ Think about which (new) habits can support you and your progress.

 

And remember: you don’t “find” time for transformation—you create it. Even one hour of uninterrupted, focused work can unlock clarity you’ve been chasing for months.
 

You are not just managing assets. You are creating a firm, a brand, and a future that reflects your vision.
 

Step into your role as the architect of your own success and let’s make this course the turning point.

BONUS TIP: YOUR 3-STEP DEEP WORK PLAN:

  1. SCHEDULE IT like a Doctor’s appointment: Something you owe to yourself.
  • Let’s take the next step and schedule at least one session for your Deep Work. And then the next one. Can you stick to a fixed schedule (like, two sessions per week?)
     
  • Do that now. Schedule a Deep Work session and send me an email (even if you’re not in the ALL-IN Bundle coaching program) so that I can celebrate your progress with you.
     
  1. PREPARE
  • Print workbooks and decide where you can work without interruptions.
     
  1. PROTECT
  • Inform your team, family, and colleagues that you're unavailable
  • Turn off all notifications and place your phone in another room
  • Limit internet access to only what's necessary for completing your workbooks
  • No emails, no market checking, no client calls during this period
  • Timer techniques (60 or 90-minute focused work blocks followed by short breaks)
     

Remember: You don't find time for this implementation work—you make time for it. And the returns on this investment of time can be extraordinary.

P.S. Remember to send me that email that you’ve scheduled your Deep Work session (even if you’re not in the ALL-IN Bundle coaching program) so that I can celebrate your progress with you!
