Recommended method for taking notes when working through a course... (hat manual)
Taking more than one course at a time? Roughly a third of your time on learning, and the rest on applying it. If you have an hour a week for a course, that is about 20 minutes of watching or reading and about 40 minutes of doing something with it. The watching gives you insight and direction. Your business changes in the other 40 minutes. Two courses at once is usually plenty. And if a course genuinely builds on another one of mine, take that one first -- otherwise, order does not matter much.

📲 Accessing my courses on mobile - use the Simplero app!
Download the Simplero app from your phone's app store 🙌🏾
Thank you for this helpful tutorial. I'll admit, I originally skipped this "module" b/c I didn't intend to put another app on my phone. Since watching, I've decided to download the app and be open to using it :)

Finding, downloading & printing my Google templates
When you make a copy of one of my Google templates, the copy lands in your own Google Drive. The quickest way back to your copy is the "Recent" section in the left sidebar -- it will be near the top, with the same name as the original. Once you have found your copy, drag it into a folder you will remember, so you are not hunting through Recent every time. Click here to go to your Google Drive "recent" section Do not use Google Docs? Make your copy anyway, then use File → Download and pick the format you want -- Word, PDF, plain text, or Excel for the spreadsheets. Everything I have built works fine once downloaded, and printing works too.
Ways I dislike -- and ways I like -- for you to ask me questions 😅
Thank you for engaging with my courses! I truly am grateful to be able to support you, my students and clients, in growing your authentic business. It’s what I love doing the most. 🤗 At the same time, since I'm (mostly) a solopreneur, I also need to keep healthy boundaries with those I'm supporting... so I hope you will keep these in mind... Ways I dislike getting questions: Social media private messaging -- whether it's FB messaging, IG dm's, Twitter, LinkedIn etc... I really dislike getting questions through those channels because it's hard to organize messages in those places. Kindly refrain from asking me questions via social media direct messages. Email -- I don't mind getting questions via email if it's enrollment-related: something you need to clarify before signing up for my courses or programs. If it's questions related to the content of my courses, e.g. concepts, exercises, feedback requests etc, please use one of the following methods... Ways I love to receive your questions: Q&A calls -- this is my favorite way to engage with you and take your questions! There, you can ask me anything 🤗 Even if you’re not clear about your question, coming to the call will likely give you inspiration and ideas! You’re welcome to come as you are. Nothing to prepare, and no such thing as a question that’s too basic, too advanced, or too repetitive. Come and listen if that’s all you feel like doing that day. You can then ask me about specific concepts, or how to apply them to your business. We can troubleshoot what's not working, or address specific challenges you're having. You can also seek my feedback about anything including your strategy, website, content, offers, or anything else. Click here: George Kao Q&A Calls. Comments under Lessons -- if you can't come to my Q&A calls or would love to get an answer sooner, find the course (George Kao Courses) related to the topic of your question. Go there, find the related lesson, and then comment underneath. This keeps the Q&A focused on a specific topic. I'll do my best to respond to your question within a few days. Members of ABC/MasterHeart -- I'd love for you to post your questions in our private forum, so that you can receive responses from other members. Your questions will also help me prepare for the next ABC Q&A calls. Even if you can't post your questions, you can still come to the Q&A calls and ask directly. Thank you for understanding! 🙏🏼 As business owners / service providers we each need to find a way to keep healthy boundaries in our work! I hope this gives you some ideas for how to maintain a good relationship with your own audience as well. 😊 New as of 2025 -- before you ask me anything, consider asking my Ai chatbot! Whatever course you have access to, my Ai is also trained on that course material, and can coach you step by step through the course material. Click here to see how that works
I really appreciate this clarity, George. The boundaries are explicit and that helps me to feel supported and safe in knowing what to do if I have further questions. Thank you!
What a completely novel way of thinking about this. I LOVE to take notes and I'm intrigued by this method that may actually help me to make my notes more relevant, salient, and useful. Interestingly, I had the CCC module on my list to work with today :)
