Productivity Physics: Science rules!

Once Newton described the three laws of motion. Most people are not even aware that Newton's laws can be used to increase productivity, ease of use and, ultimately, improve their lives. Let us look at how to do it. We have prepared for you a cool illustration.

In 1687, Isaac Newton published his revolutionary book "Mathematical Principles of Natural Philosophy". This book describes the three laws of motion. Thus Newton laid the foundations of classical mechanics. And it is possible to rethink the way the world looked at the physics and science. Most people are not even aware that Newton's laws can be used to increase productivity, ease of use and, ultimately, improve their lives. Let us look at how to do it.

Newton's First Law

The first law of motion states:

Every body continues in a state of rest or uniform rectilinear motion, and as long as it is compelled to change that state forces.

In other words, the law says that a body in motion tends to stay in motion. Conversely, if the body does not move, it seeks to ensure that remain in this state.

By and large, procrastination - it is a fundamental law of the universe. Newton's law is applicable to our performance. Objects at rest tend to stay at rest. The good news is that it works in the opposite direction. Objects in motion tend to stay in motion. And if we apply this law to productivity, then we understand that you need to do is not so much. Only a start. The most important thing - is to find a way to start. And as soon as the start, you will be much easier to stay in motion.

So, what is the best way to start to do something, if you are constantly kept putting it off? In my experience, the best way is to use Rule 2 minutes.

If we apply the rule 2 minutes to productivity, then it will sound like this: to defeat the laziness to find a way to get started in less than 2 minutes. Note that you do not need to complete your task. In fact, you do not even need to work on the main task. You will notice that once you start a small two-minute thing, then everything moves much easier. And all this thanks to Newton's law.

A couple of examples:

• Now you may not want to go for a jog. But if you type a water bottle and wear running shoes, it will be a small beginning. And it will make you go out into the fresh air for a run.
• Now, you may see a blank screen, and fight in order to write your report. But if you write a few random suggestions for a couple of minutes, you will find that to start to write the necessary proposals has become much easier.
• Now, perhaps, you have a creative stupor and you can not do anything to portray. But if you paint or draw a couple of random lines on a piece of paper, then turn the line into a dog, then it may well put you out of the creative stupor.

Motivation often comes after the start. Find a way to start small. Objects in motion tend to stay in motion.

Newton's second law

The second law of motion states:

F = ma. The change of motion is proportional to the driving force occurs in the direction of the straight line in which that force is.

In other words, force equals mass times acceleration. Let's see how this equation can be applied to productivity.

Make one important point: the power (F) - it is a vector. A vectors include value (as you apply operation) and the direction in which the work is directed. In other words, if you want to speed up the object in a certain direction, then the situation is influenced by the amount of force and its direction.

You guessed it already? All this can be applied in our lives!

If you want to be more productive, you should think not only about how you work hard. But also on where the work is directed, where you direct your efforts. This is also true for the big life decisions, and for small daily tasks. For example, you can make the same effort, but in different directions, and then you get a very different result.

Simply put, you have a certain amount of force is strictly for your work. And the direction of this force is as important as its quantity.

Newton's Third Law

The third law of motion states:

Every action has an equal and opposite reaction, otherwise, the interaction of two bodies upon each other and are directed in opposite directions.

We all have an average speed of execution of something. Your typical level of productivity and efficiency is the balance of productive and unproductive forces in your life. A bit like Newton's law of equal and opposite forces.

There productive forces in our lives. This concentration, positivity and motivation. Also, there are not productive forces such as stress, lack of sleep and try to be multitasking.

If we want to become more efficient and more productive, then we have two choices.

The first - to make more efforts. This version of the so-called additional forces. We podnapryazhomsya, drink another cup of coffee and will work harder. That's why people take drugs to help them concentrate. Or watch hundreds of motivational videos. All in order to pump itself. All this in order to increase your power and productivity to overcome unproductive forces with which we are faced.

It is obvious that this can happen as long as you do not burn out. additional force option can work well. But only for a short period.

Another embodiment is to eliminate the opposing forces. Simplify your life, learn to say "no" to change your environment, reduce the amount of duties. In other words, eliminate all that is holding you back.

Most people try to solve problems by force, and clog the obstacles. But the problem with this strategy is that you are still struggling with the other powers. It is much easier to eliminate the opposing force and let your productivity forward.

To summarize

Newton's laws - that's all you need to know in order to be productive.

1. Objects in motion tend to stay in motion. Find a way to get started in less than 2 minutes.
2. It is not enough to work harder, to work on the right things. You have a limited supply of power. Solve the question of where you'd better apply them.
3. Your productivity - a balance of opposing forces. If you want to be more productive, you can either go by force, or to remove the disturbing you strength. I think the second option is easier.
