191: 4 Productivity Strategies to Ease your Mind
LISTEN TO THIS EPISODE AND ALL OTHERS BELOW
There is a perception that people who are productive are also retentive. It’s safe to say that people who are less productive feel they missed out on some nebulous genetic lotto. Their belief is that those who are productive are born that way or benefitted from strict upbringing.
The truth is productivity, like anything, is open to all. Regardless of genetics everyone has the capability to be productive. It is a learned skill that can be honed and fostered in anyone.
However, there is one thing that separates the productive from the less efficient and that is the ability to think outside the confines of the status quo. For example, the workplace fosters a misperception that email it the cornerstone of communication and productivity. The common thought is that you should be accessible to everyone on their schedule, succumbing to their perceived urgencies. Email is anything less than productive. It is an energy drain and anyone who wishes to embrace productivity limits it extensively. But again, common thought is that email is the backbone to every organization.
Listen today as I discuss four strategies for increasing your productivity. Along with that I will reveal one of my top online productivity tools. All this on ZEN commuter.
