What really means 'To be more productive'

 Hey, How many times do you think to yourself I need to be more productive? an uncountable number of times right? Very often that thought is always begging us almost pushing us to do more. It tells you "you are so lazy, you can do more, you need to do more than you are doing." But to be fair nine times out of ten (9/10) that thought is usually right.

We can do more than what we think we can but yet to actually be more productive is not answered by doing so much stuff. I know it is counterintuitive to what is considered to be more productive. So here is what I mean, to be more productive involves doing effective and quality work in less amount of time. That work should be externally rewarding. 

Let me illustrate, picture two individuals with an equal number of hours say, eight, and they are told they should spend those hours as productive as possible. Now the first individual uses his time and accomplishes six tasks and 1 task out of those six was done with great effectiveness and quality. Now the second individual uses his time by completing say 2 tasks all done with great effectiveness and quality. Now obviously since he is done in less time he uses his extra hours doing his hobbies. Who do you think is more productive? 

Some might say the first individual but I beg to differ. The right answer is, the second individual, you see being more productive is not in completing more tasks as it is perceived. It is in doing effective, quality, and rewarding external work. Being more productive is not just being busy, it is being busy doing what?

I hope I have been able to show you some light with regards to productivity, Perhaps it's got you thinking from a different perspective. Either way, I wish you all the best if you ever try to be a more productive individual.

Dare

The greatest hazard in life is to risk nothing. The people who risk nothing, do nothing, have nothing, are nothing. They may avoid suffering and sorrow, but they cannot learn, feel, change, grow, love, and live. Chained by their attitudes they are slaves; they have forfeited their freedom. Only a person who risks is free. People, who risk may go through things that seem self-inflicting you know someone looking from the outside so to speak might ask what in the world is this guy thinking? why go through all that? why try you know how difficult it is? These are the people who don't risk anything thinking it's the best decision in the short term but in the long run, those who have risked are the ones who enjoy life, feel, change, find their path, grow, and live fulfilling lives. Just like a plant that is in a cocooned place will always look dull unlike a plant that faces all the elements, is usually more vibrant. Here is my point always try, risk, feel, love, and don't ...

How to know, you are doing the right thing for you

 Hey, have you ever thought that the reason you are struggling with certain things in your life is because of something else other than you? Maybe how you are brought up affected how you view relationships, how you were treated in certain situations has made you change the way you view things, maybe a breakup made you declare there is no love out there, and so forth. I am sure almost every one of us has. Surely what any of us has gone through affects how we view and define these "things" in our life. Talk of relationships, money, and life in general. I mean it is only natural, We are wired the way our brains are created to be for us, to protect us, and thus if anything happens against what is expected it is a cause of alarm. In other words, if for instance what you have done before failed, it's only natural that when you have a chance to do the same endeavor you become alerted and you end up hesitating to do it, or not doing it at all. These "things" that do hap...

The pandemic lessons and why they will always happen

 Hey, surely pandemics have always been with us right?, and as I should also say they are going to be with us. Let us face it there is another virus somewhere waiting to happen and I don't mean to scare anyone but to show what is actually reality. To be honest with ourselves the pandemics that do happen or will happen are usually 99% our faults caused by our negligence, carelessness, and so forth but also through good intentions like trying to experiment with a bunch of drugs to find a better one. Anyway, it should not be an excuse, as pandemics bring all the negative things that we all know yet funny enough through pandemics man has come out more capable and better with a drug to kill that virus and keep the virus in its place so to speak. But as much as pandemics come packed with all the negative stuff we should not forget all the good they come with. what do I mean you ask? pandemics come with their fair share of good talk the Covid 19 pandemic for instance I would say has come ...
