Improving Your Personal Productivity In This Fast Paced World
Just ask anyone around you, and you will find most of the people complaining about their low personal productivity. How they were not able to give their hundred percent and how much more they could have achieved only if they were able to utilize their full potential. How, for some reason they keep falling for the less important, insignificant activities every now and then? Isn't it strange that the man has been inventing so many machines and devices to keep up with the time and complete lengthy, irksome tasks in shorter period; still the time manages to run faster?
In our effort to catch up with this fast paced world, and to meet all the expectations of the people around us, we pointlessly drift through the days and nights of our lives, years and years seem to pass in a twinkling of an eye and every time we look back, we are struck by a sense of guilt, realizing that we have spent most of our time in activities that were of no use to anybody. Even those who are relatively more successful than a common man will agree that they were capable of doing much more than what they have achieved so far. So what's there to be done? ...
... Luckily, it's never too late to start improving.
Time Management:
Good personal productivity is closely linked to better time management but good time management is something easier said than done. Who can deny the importance and scarcity of time, yet we continue to waste time, sometimes watching TV, going out and staying up late with friends, checking emails a thousand times on daily basis or just thinking how unfortunate we are for not having enough resources to fulfill our dreams (always forgetting that if we keep sitting idle like this, our dreams will just slip further away). To manage time effectively, you should carefully observe your daily routine. Sometimes we go through these time-wasting activities just out of habit. These habits are often not hard to break, and sometimes just knowing that you have already wasted so much time at something without getting anything out of it can make you quit that routine.
Don't Panic:
No matter how much work is left, as the deadline keep nearing, do not panic. Panic or stress will do nothing except eating out your energy and the time that can be used for more preparation and work. That doesn't mean you should stop worrying about the cut-off dates or targets at all, just don't let the fear of not being fully prepared or not meeting the deadline overcome. In panic, you may push yourself a little too hard and as a result you will end up feeling depleted.
Be focused and keep challenging yourself:
Again, simple rule but really hard to abide by. Never loose your focus, even before doing something constructive; ask yourself if it is going to help your goals in any way or not? Keep challenging yourself on constant basis, never shy away from challenges because often a challenge is all you need to get yourself back on track.
