What is Productivity?

-

 


Productivity is often interpreted as working for long hours and generating outcomes merely in quantitative terms. However, the case is exactly the opposite. 🙅🏻‍♀️

If ever asked, I would rather define 'Productivity' these Seven ways: 

🧶 Productivity is more about quality but not quantity.

🧶 Productivity is more about working less but not anything short of effectiveness.

🧶 Productivity is more about smart work but not hard work. 

🧶 Productivity is more about the process but not the outcome. 

🧶 Productivity is more about problem-solving but not inviting in further complexities. 

🧶 Productivity is more about transcending our limits but not putting a full stop to our cognitive abilities.

🧶 Productivity is more about progression but not regression. 

Productivity is nothing but the moments of time we are truly dedicated to our work. It is the time we show utmost honesty to our work. It is a positive correlation in the ratio of 1:1, which exists between us and our work. 

These above seven ways were my own subjective interpretations of what productivity could possibly be. What would be your definition of productivity?

  It's better to think radically. However, it's much better to act responsibly. A popular dictum proposed by Rene Descartes (father of Modern Western Philosophy), asserts, "Cogito Ergo Sum" (I think, therefore, I am). Here, 'thinking' precedes 'existence'. To become able enough to think, to imagine, to introspect, and to retrospect, is highly significant for a better living.  If not for a better living, then might be for developing better decision-making abilities. If not for better decision-making abilities, then might be for cultivating the habit of exploring infinite possibilities of our world or say, human existence.  However, periodically, all our thinking becomes futile. This happens, when we do it too often, without taking into account the requisite measures. This is when we become rigid towards new scopes or paradigm shifts in life. So, this very phenomenon is, what is summed up as 'overthinking'. Of course, there could be 'n' n

'Fear and Doubt' : The Best Teachers Ever.

💁🏻‍♀️Every time, we open social media, we come across people sharing and celebrating their achievements and accomplishments. However, is life all about golds, pearls and diamonds? Ofcourse! Not. There is so much more to life (the not-so colorful part of it). It is very seldom to see people voicing out about their struggles or their pain points, quite openly. The entire hook is; ‘Celebrating our Highs is as Significant as Embracing our Lows’.  Life is not solely about just one static phase or moment. Rather life is a streamline of moments just like a river, flowing on and off perpetually. It is dynamic in nature and is always moving towards a certain kind of 'change'. Just by observing our mother nature, one could possibly realize and understand the 'how'.   We must learn to cherish our lows because they represent and shape our overall journey towards our goals. They build us to think and act more like a well-rounded person. They make us a little wiser. They teach us t

  Not expressing everything you know is also a part of wisdom. Sometimes you have to wait for the right stage and the right audience that would truly acknowledge your talent. This is why having the right platform becomes a major thing in life.  Always remind yourself these Five Chief Keystrokes ; 🍁 Be there, where your voice is heard. 🍁 Be there, where your words are welcomed. 🍁 Be there, where your contributions are appreciated. 🍁 Be there, where your work is valued. 🍁 Be there, where your presence is celebrated.  Because your Surroundings do Matter a Lot more than your Talent does. ~Varsha Rout
