Productivity

Many of us think of being productive all the time but it is not possible to be productive all the time. Inorder to have the maximum productiveness there are simple 9 steps or we can call them as behaviors which can help. Before we get into these steps, let us understand why should we be productive ?. Is it really important ?. Yes, definitely, many people get into stress and worries these days due to lack in productiveness. They might be working most of the time infact around 20 hours a day but still they will not be productive and fall into unnecessary worrying, fear, stress. Being high productive in less time will keep us away from worries, fear, stress.

Don't work too much

I understand many people will argue with me on this topic. Yes, it is really necessary to understand how much effort is needed to perform a specific job. If we put more and more effort unnecessarily, it will lead to less productiveness and cause huge depression. We should understand the purpose of any job and it is more important to understand how much effort required in performing any job. More and more time spend than needed is a form of unproductiveness and will cause depression.

Don't worry too much

Worrying is not a new thing, it was there since humans have been in existence. If a person stops worrying, it itself shows the path to high productivity and success. Worrying too much will end in over thinking and over behaving in any job than it is required. When we keep ourself busy in learning new concepts and strategies, it can stop us from worrying too much. This will definitely be a cause for high productivity. 


Don't be stubborn

When we are dealing with people, most of us would have thought what does he know that i don't know. This is a form of stubbornness. World is very big and definitely one cannot have all the knowledge in this world. Life is a learning process. So, it is important to understand that any person would know something or many thing which we don't know. Avoiding our stubbornness and being open to learn from any person we see in our daily life is very important. This will definitely be a cause for high productivity. 


Don't check things always

How many times you check your Mail, Phone, Facebook, Twitter everyday?. I would recommend to ask yourself if that is really necessary to check frequently. It is ok if we are able to reply a person a bit late or if we are able to reply them within next 24 hours. It is not necessary to reply immediately when we receive an email. Many people are obsessed with checking their phones, computer and ipad's all the time and fall pray for less productivity. Stop this, this will definitely be a cause for high productivity. 

Don't say YES always

Many of us are very bad in saying NO. We are good at saying YES but not with NO. There is nothing wrong in saying NO. Infact, many people who achieved big in their career are good at saying NO. If we say YES, we will be committed to certain things which we might not be required to do. Sometime which will stop our productivity. To increase productivity it is important to say NO, where it is really not mandatory. Make a rating from 1 to 100. If the importance of any work is more than 90, then accept it and say YES. Else say NO, nothing wrong in that. This will definitely be a cause for high productivity. 

Write things down

Many of us will plan things in advance and will perform that very well too but we won't write those down at the end of the day or week. It is really important to write things down and have a look at those every quarter or every month to understand how that specific thing can be don't more effectively. This will also save us more time and increase our productivity.

Don't be hard to yourself

When certain things go wrong, don't be hard to yourself. There is no one in this world called perfect. People learn from their mistakes. It is ok to do some mistakes but with a calculated risk. Instead of being hard to ourself, it is much better to learn from our mistakes and rise again. This will make our work more productive as we learn from our own mistakes.

Don't neglect your personal education

Success is a journey. It needs learning and updating knowledge all the time. Most people think their formal school education is enough to lead a successful life till they live. No, it is not the case, one should learn all the time to be productive. If we need to shine in our work, we should be able to perform the work at ease with less effort and high comfort. This can be achieved with continuous learning and constantly gaining knowledge. This will definitely be a cause for high productivity. 

Don't hate rules

Our system has made us to hate rules since we are born. Rules are very important to perform any action in a sequential manner effectively. Without rules we would still be monkeys. It is very important to understand we are what we are now just because of rules. Inorder to do any work high productively, it is important to follow certain rules it requires. We need to understand those and work accordingly for high productivity.

I hope and believe the reader of this blog will be highly productive, add more value to their job and a happy and healthy life. 

Have a Great Day
