Stop Wasting Time.
Start Making Progress.
LifeOS is the holistic productivity system that helps you manage your time, beat procrastination, and take consistent action towards your goals.
Drowning in To-Dos?
You’re Not Alone
Let’s be honest—we all face challenges when it comes to productivity, time management and getting things done. Maybe you can relate to some (or even most!) of these common struggles:
You’ve got too much to do and not enough time to do it in. Important projects get pushed back, urgent tasks pile up, and the to-do list only seems to grow.
You procrastinate on projects you genuinely care about. You put off important work and struggle to bridge the gap between intention and action.
You’re juggling multiple commitments competing for your attention. A full-time job, side projects, family responsibilities, health goals—all important, yet seemingly impossible to balance without sacrificing something.
You’re easily distracted, making deep work feel impossible. When you do carve out time, hours vanish to tasks that don’t move the needle on what truly matters.
You’ve tried productivity tools and techniques but nothing sticks. Apps, planners, hacks—they work briefly before falling away when life gets busy or enthusiasm fades.
You’re not sure if you even know what you want…stuck in a cycle of exploring different passions and interests, but unsure which path to commit to.
Your goals feel scattered and unfocused, making it hard to channel your energy effectively into any single direction.
But here’s the truth…
You’re not lazy, unmotivated, or incapable.
You just haven’t found a system that works with your brain instead of against it.
That’s about to change.
If we haven’t met before – hi, my name’s Ali 👋
I’m a doctor turned entrepreneur, YouTuber, and the author of the New York Times bestseller Feel-Good Productivity.
Over the past eight years, I’ve been creating educational content about the art and science of productivity and personal development, growing an audience of over 8 million people from all walks of life and in 190+ countries.
My work on productivity has been featured in Forbes, Business Insider, and dozens of major publications. I’ve given talks at companies like Google and Amazon, and appeared on some of the world’s biggest podcasts—all exploring one central question:
How do we manage our time and get things done in a world filled with endless distractions and too much to do?
This question isn’t just academic for me. It’s deeply personal.
After years of studying and writing about productivity, I made a simple but powerful discovery that changed everything.
The secret to truly enjoyable, meaningful and sustainable productivity isn’t complicated. It comes down to connecting two basic things:
1️⃣ VISION. Without a clear picture of where you’re going and why it matters, you’ll only excel at tasks that ultimately don’t move your life forward.
2️⃣ ACTION. Once your direction is clear, progress isn’t about willpower—it’s about building systems that make consistent action inevitable.
People often ask how I managed to build a 7-figure business while working full-time as a doctor in the UK’s National Health Service during the pandemic. They wonder how I found time to grow a YouTube channel, write a bestselling book, and lead a team without giving up my health, hobbies and personal life.
The answer isn’t superhuman productivity or sacrificing sleep. It’s having a system that gave me crystal-clear VISION about what mattered most and a framework for ACTION that ensured I made consistent progress, even when time was impossibly scarce.
This realisation changed everything for me.
And that’s precisely why I created LifeOS.
Introducing LifeOS: Your New Productivity Operating System
LifeOS isn’t just another productivity course or collection of random tips—it’s a complete operating system for your life and work, built around a philosophy that transforms how you approach productivity.
I’ve distilled everything I’ve learned about productivity—from scientific research, personal experimentation, and coaching thousands of students—into one comprehensive system that addresses both the vision and action components of truly sustainable productivity.
What Makes LifeOS Different?
Most productivity systems focus exclusively on task management, time blocking, or habit formation. They help you get more done, but rarely question whether you’re doing the right things.
LifeOS takes a fundamentally different approach by addressing both:
Pillar 1: VISION
The Vision pillar helps you gain clarity on what truly matters in your life and work. Through structured reflection and strategic planning, you’ll:
- Discover your core values and how they should guide your decisions
- Craft a compelling vision for your future that pulls you forward
- Set meaningful goals that align with your bigger purpose
- Prioritise effectively so you focus on high-leverage activities
- Make decisions with confidence, knowing they support your larger vision
Pillar 2: ACTION
The Action pillar gives you the systems, tools, and frameworks to consistently execute on your vision. You’ll learn how to:
- Track progress in ways that keep you motivated and accountable
- Create a personalised productivity system that works with your unique brain
- Build routines that make progress automatic, not dependent on motivation
- Overcome procrastination through proven psychological techniques
- Manage your energy, not just your time
The LifeOS Philosophy
At its core, LifeOS is built on a philosophy that productivity should be enjoyable, sustainable, and meaningful. This isn’t about squeezing more tasks into your day—it’s about a fundamental shift in how you approach your time and energy.
What makes LifeOS truly powerful is the integration of these two pillars. When you combine clarity of vision with effective action systems:
- You procrastinate less because you understand the “why” behind each task
- You experience less decision fatigue as your values and goals guide your choices
- You maintain more consistent motivation by connecting daily actions to meaningful outcomes
- You make progress inevitable rather than occasional
LifeOS isn’t about working harder—it’s about aligning your efforts with what truly matters and creating systems that make progress automatic.
You don’t have to let another year pass with unfulfilled potential. It might be time to upgrade your life’s operating system 😉
What People Are Saying About LifeOS
Since launching LifeOS, my team and I have been overwhelmed by the stories of transformation from people just like you. Here’s a flavour of what they’re saying:
LifeOS has transformed my approach to work and personal productivity. The course offers practical techniques that are both innovative and immediately applicable, particularly in structuring focus time and eliminating distractions. What sets this course apart is its emphasis on clarity and priority-setting. Rather than just teaching time management, LifeOS helped me develop a framework for identifying what truly matters. The practical tools introduced in the course have become integral to my daily routine, helping me align my actions with long-term priorities. I would highly recommend the LifeOS course to anyone looking to elevate their productivity while maintaining focus on what truly matters. The investment has paid off many times over in terms of time saved and goals achieved.
— Li Z., Brand Strategist & Entrepreneur, 🇺🇸 Austin TX
I was at first apprehensive of paying the price for this course, but I figured I’d give it a shot after getting loads of value from Spark (The money back guarantee was also comforting/reassuring).
As someone who has been really struggling with being productive with ADHD, this course was truly LIFE CHANGING. I love how it provided STRUCTURE and clear CONSTRAINTS—this is huge with timeblindness and overthinking. The course was fun and easy to understand and it’s forgiving if you missed anything because everything is recorded along with all the materials. I completed this course and for the first time in my life, I feel confident that I’m actually going to make PROGRESS towards something meaningful instead of running in circles. It’s so much more than just a productivity course, it’s a reflective process to discover what is important to you and it has productivity
Thank you, Ali and Team, for putting such a valuable course together. It was worth every penny, I am truly grateful and looking forward to the year ahead.
— Travis T, Multi-Passionate Creative,
🇺🇸 Philadelphia, USA
Incredibly helpful! I’m read loads of productivity books over the years everything from Getting Things Done to Deep Work and even Feel Good Productivity. I’ve also taken productivity courses on Skillshare, watched countless productivity videos on YouTube from people like Thomas Frank and played around with every app known to man (Evernote, Notion, Todoist, etc.). I learned more in LifeOS than all of that combined. Those things gave me ideas, overviews, tools, and some tactics but this course was the foundation on which all that other stuff can actually be leveraged. I even joined LifeOS Pro I found it so useful.
— Jackson B, Fitness Coach + Bestselling Author, 🇺🇸 USA
Ali and his team’s course on building a personal productivity system was exactly what I had been looking for in this level of depth. The course was incredibly well-structured, and its many practical aspects made it easy to apply what I learned right away. The seamless integration of theory and practice, combined with assignments that could be shared in a dedicated space with other participants, was particularly valuable. This interactive approach made it much easier to not only understand the concepts but also implement them effectively in daily life… it delivered exactly what I was looking for – a well-structured, hands-on approach to building a productivity system. It wasn’t just about theoretical knowledge; it provided practical tools to make lasting improvements in how I work and organize my life… I would recommend this course to anyone struggling to build a sustainable productivity system – whether due to overwhelm, lack of structure, or inconsistency. Students, professionals, and entrepreneurs alike will benefit immensely from the insights shared in this course. If you want to become more productive while reducing stress, this is the course for you. Since taking the course, I’ve learned not only how to manage my time more effectively but also how to be mindful of my energy. I am now more productive than ever – while feeling more relaxed than ever before. The realization that productivity isn’t about being constantly busy, but about doing the right things in the right way, was truly transformative for me. For all of this, I sincerely thank Ali and his wonderful team.
— Kevin P, Student, 🇩🇪 Germany
I had never given any thought to structuring a productivity system. I have had 20 alarms ringing every week and 10 different projects going on at the same time. Taking this course has so far has reduced my stress level and helped me to organize my life.
— William E., Geriatric Medicine Physician, 🇸🇪 Stockholm, Sweden
This course is shaping my future. It is building my confidence daily, weekly, monthly, in what is possible. What we want is not a result of “wishing it so”, it is the result of organzing our actions toward our dreams. This course has tied my dreams to actions and I can see positive change in my perspective, attitude and my outcomes!
— Tricia A, Engineer turned Entrepreneur + Mom of 2, 🇺🇸 USA

LifeOS vs LifeOS Pro: Which Is Right for You?
Making a decision about which option best suits your needs comes down to understanding how you work best and what level of support will help you thrive.
LifeOS: The Complete System
LifeOS gives you everything you need to transform your productivity from the ground up. You’ll get the complete system with all six modules, covering both the Vision and Action pillars, along with templates, resources, and implementation guides.
This is perfect if:
- You’re self-motivated and disciplined when you have a clear system
- You prefer to implement at your own pace
- You have experience successfully following through on courses
- You already have accountability structures in your life
With LifeOS, you get the exact system I’ve used to build my business, write a bestseller, and maintain balance in my life. It’s everything you need to completely transform how you approach productivity.
LifeOS Pro: The System + Support
LifeOS Pro includes everything in LifeOS, plus a comprehensive support structure designed to dramatically increase your chances of success.
I created LifeOS Pro because I’ve learned something important through years of coaching thousands of students: even the best system in the world only works if you consistently implement it.
Ever since university when I’d organise co-working study sessions, my personal productivity has always been supercharged by working with others. And I’ve built this insight directly into LifeOS Pro.
With LifeOS Pro, you’re not just getting a system—you’re joining a community of like-minded people all working toward meaningful progress. You’re gaining access to daily focus sessions where you can do your deep work alongside others. You’re connecting with coaches who understand the challenges and can guide you past obstacles.
This level of support makes a profound difference in turning good intentions into consistent action
The Real Value Perspective
When considering the investment, I encourage you to think about what you’re actually buying: not just a course, but transformative change in how you approach your time, energy, and goals.
At $2.70 per day for LifeOS Pro, consider what else you spend a similar amount on:
Your Daily Coffee
$3.08 a day
$1,124 a year
You get a one-time caffeine hit, that probably lasts 30 minutes at most.
Takeout Twice a Week
$15 per meal
$1,440 a year
You get a delicious meal, that’s enjoyed and forgotten within hours.
Impulse Purchase
-$25 per week
$1,300 a year
You get a box of stuff you probably didn’t need, along with clutter and regret.
Dining out (weekly)
-$30 per meal
$1,560 a year
A nice dinner with great vibes, but no long-term impact, and it’s quickly forgotten.
Meanwhile, LifeOS Pro Gives You:
- A system that helps you stay focused every day
- The accountability to actually follow through
- The structure to achieve your biggest goals
- The support to make real, lasting change
Unlike consumable purchases, LifeOS Pro is an investment that compounds over time. The habits and systems you build don’t disappear after use—they continue generating returns in every area of your life.
Choose What Works For You
Both options provide tremendous value, and I’m confident either will transform your approach to productivity.
The question isn’t which one is better—it’s which one better matches how you work best.
If you thrive with additional accountability and community support, if you value the guidance of coaches and the energy of working alongside others, LifeOS Pro will likely give you the best chance of sustainable, long-term success.
If you’re already highly disciplined and self-motivated, LifeOS gives you everything you need to implement a life-changing productivity system on your own terms.
The choice is yours, and I’m excited to support your journey either way.
LifeOS FAQs
We’re here to answer all the questions you have about LifeOS and LifeOS Pro.
If you don’t see your question here please email: support@aliabdaal.com
I’ve tried other productivity systems before. How is LifeOS different?
Most productivity systems focus exclusively on tasks and time management—the “how” of getting things done. LifeOS is different because it addresses both the “why” (Vision) and the “how” (Action). When you have clarity on your direction, taking consistent action becomes much easier and more meaningful.
I’m already too busy. Will I have time to implement this system?
LifeOS is designed for busy people. The implementation is gradual and modular, so you can apply it at your own pace. Many students find that the initial investment of time quickly pays dividends as they eliminate unnecessary tasks and focus on what truly matters. Remember—being busy isn’t the same as being productive.
I’m not naturally organised or disciplined. Will this work for me?
Absolutely. LifeOS isn’t about forcing yourself to become more disciplined through sheer willpower. It’s about creating systems that work with your natural tendencies and preferences. The most successful LifeOS students often started as self-described “productivity disasters” before finding a system that finally worked for them.
How long will it take to see results?
Many students report immediate benefits just from gaining clarity in the Vision module. The full transformation typically unfolds over 4-12 weeks as you implement the different components of the system. The beauty of LifeOS is that it builds momentum—small wins lead to bigger changes as the system takes hold.
What if it doesn’t work for me?
Your satisfaction is my priority. If you implement LifeOS and don’t see meaningful improvements in your productivity and sense of direction, just let us know within 30 days, and we’ll provide a full refund. I stand behind this system because I’ve seen its impact on thousands of students from all walks of life.
How much time do I need to commit weekly?
To get the most from LifeOS, I recommend setting aside 2-3 hours for initial setup, then 30-60 minutes weekly for planning and reflection. With LifeOS Pro, you’ll also have access to daily focus sessions and weekly workshops, which you can attend as fits your schedule.
Can I start with LifeOS and upgrade to LifeOS Pro later?
Sure. LifeOS students can always upgrade to LifeOS Pro at any time by paying the difference 😊
The “Help Ali Sleep at Night” Money-Back Guarantee
Here’s the deal: I’m an overthinker who cares way too much about what others think of me. The thought of someone buying LifeOS and not loving it keeps me up at night (and trust me, I need my sleep!)
So here’s our no-questions-asked guarantee:*
If at any point in your first 30 days you’re not completely satisfied with LifeOS or LifeOS Pro, just let us know what could have made it better for you, and we’ll refund your entire payment—no awkward conversations, no hoops to jump through, no hard feelings.
*Okay, technically that’s one question asked, but it’s just to help us improve rather than to make your refund difficult. Your feedback helps me sleep better too 😉
A Final Thought
As you consider whether LifeOS is right for you, I’d like to share something I’ve observed after working with thousands of students.
The most common regret people express isn’t about trying something new and it not working out—it’s about waiting too long to make a change they knew they needed.
Time is our most precious resource. When we lack a clear system for managing it, days and weeks can slip by without the meaningful progress we hope for. Goals remain just out of reach, and important projects stay perpetually on the “someday” list.
LifeOS isn’t about adding pressure or urgency to your life. It’s about creating space for what truly matters. It’s about the peace of mind that comes from knowing your daily actions align with your deeper vision.
Whether you choose LifeOS or find another approach that works for you, my sincere hope is that you’ll take a step toward more intentional productivity. Your goals and aspirations deserve that attention.
If you feel LifeOS resonates with what you’re looking for, I’d be honoured to support your journey.
