Ever found that there is so much to do in the day that you needed a 36-Hour Day? I heard Arianna Huffington one day criticize Elon Musk for claiming that he spent 24 hours on his birthday working.
At some point in time, we do need some "me time" in order to recharge and recuperate. We know that this is important, but at times we find ourselves working even on Sundays.
In this episode, let's check out one simple trick that can create acres of space in or calendar for me time. It is a simple way to look at our activities and restructure them. Listen to this.
"The main thing is to keep the main thing the main thing". I love that quote. So let's ask ourselves this question: What's the main thing in life? Perhaps different people will give you different answers.
It is the same as asking everyone: What matters to you? You will get as many answers as there are passionate independent thinkers. At the end of the day, I bet you that the most important thing in life is productivity.
But there is another option that most people are following: To make it in life. How do you balance those two? Listen to this.
Business books often talk about the difference between effectiveness and efficiency. This is important in life, for we have no problem being efficient. However, at the end of the day, were we productive?
To be productive as an individual simply means to do that which you were designed to do in the fast place. Therefore, productivity is connected firmly to the message of a life of purpose.
Can you say that a person living outside of the life of purpose is a productive soul? Debatable, but if you are to go with the definition, the answer is no. Listen to this.
I honestly believe that there is no bigger reason for the existence of the human being other than to be productive. And I am going to focus not on a whole human race, but just on individuals. You and me.
There could be no other bigger reason for our existence. Therefore, productivity is a critical aspect of our lives, probably on a daily basis. We have no problem taking action daily. The question is: are we being productive with it?
Listen to this.
The most inexhaustible treasure trove in the world I believe is human potential. I am not going to take away the fact that the earth itself has incredible amounts of treasure when excavated.
However, when push comes to shove all those treasures are useless without the human. That is why the human is an important aspect in life, and the human himself is filled with so much incredible potential that is inexhaustible.
We need to learn how we can start and how we can continue to exploit that potential. Like I have said, the most sinister thing about potential is words used to describe it: Dormant, Unused, Untapped. Let it not be so. Here are some ways we can change the narrative.
