Productivity Motivation / / December 19, 2019
Often what we consider the productivity rules and prevent us from being productive. The only thing that we can do to influence - it is our attitude to the events and phenomena, and of course - our reaction to events. That is why our convictions and beliefs are so important to success. Let's try to debunk common myths together.
Myth 1: Organized, then licked. Organization is often confused with lifelessness barracks rescued beds. However, licked up the purity of your office can become a place where you constantly lose. Organized also need to consider the environment, where everything you need at the moment - at hand, and not unnecessarily distracted, but can be found quickly if the need arises. It can be concluded that change your mess need only when it ceases to work for you.
Myth 2: I have no time for any system. It is often heard as a justification for the reluctance to implement any your tasks management. But the truth is that the time required to support the system commensurate with the gain from its implementation.
Myth 3: Systems stiff and inflexible. This is another appeal towards its own performance management systems. She seems to have inspired confidence in the fact that the complainant's life is so chaotic that no system to it will not work. In fact life is chaotic because of the reluctance to make it at least a little more organized and predictable. The adaptation - the process of removing unnecessary for you personally, and adding that without which you yourself do not think.
Myth 4: Productivity is a big load. It seems that, if I have time to do everything that I'm doing now in half the time, I will do twice as much. Sometimes it happens, but here the thing to set you. But to do the job in half the time just to make twice as much - it's not productive, it's stupid. Spend free time to family, health and hobbies.
Myth 5: Creativity can not be subject to the system. If you believe that the productivity of the system only for offices and business people, you are wrong. Creative work - also work: planning, organization and motivation to perform tasks required in it is not at all less, and sometimes even more. Performing routine - something that is often ignored by creative people, but without which it is difficult to provide good fees, paid bills and the availability of all necessary for the job. The system allows you to quickly cope with this routine, will allow to spend as much or more time on creativity.
Myth 6: I work better when will secure. Some seriously believe that stress and close date helps them to get together and work effectively. Nine times out of ten it is not. Constant stress and arousal and are harmful to your health and for your businessWhat really nothing to talk about productivity.
Myth 7: The lack of - my system. It is really so, but the point here is not the one who puts these words in speaking. This hodgepodge of habits, practices and beliefs - your system, and you're hard work to maintain it. In this case, you're not thinking about how to become more productive.
Myth 8: I need inspiration. There is no need. Inspiration - a wonderful thing, but it is rarely needed when you want to do business. What you really need - a system that allows you to easily use the inspiration, wherever it is you are not visited.
Myth 9: Organized - it's boring. This is a variation on the first myth, flavored sixth. Some people just love to swim in confusion. But organized not be bored, bored to be boring. The system should bring joy, create it just like that.
Myth 10: There is nothing to be done - to me that something is wrong. This may partly be true: no system can not fix the fundamental problems in your life. The only thing she could do - give you the time and tools to fix these problems.
In the end, your personal development, your success as if you have not defined - it's your own business. The increase in productivity and facilitate clarification purposes the road, but it is a road, not a result.
