How to be productive as a human being?
People tell us that we should try to be productivity machines. We should do things efficiently and make the most of our day.
To be efficient and productive, we should systemise our day. It is the current concept of success.
It could be right, but is it the only path to success?
Big No
This productivity system can lead to burnout, reduced creativity, and a loss of connection to what truly matters: family, personal life, and overall well-being.
Efficiency Over Too Much Work
To be energy-efficient, it isn’t a matter of doing more.
It’s a matter of focus and doing what truly pays off, and then turning off.
Not all tasks are equal; pick the most rewarding ones.
Life doesn’t deserve to work through nights, while you can take a break, sleep enough, and come back stronger the next day.
Your path to success starts with prioritizing your tasks and eliminating the unnecessary ones.
Relaxation and Recovery
No one can live without downtime; it’s a necessity. It doesn’t matter how much experience you have.
Don’t expect to be creative, insightful, and truly busy if you don’t give yourself time to rest and recover.
Are we machines, or are we people who need time to rest, heal, and connect with what makes them happy?
Family and Connections
It’s not a weakness to spend time with family. It’s a positive thing.
Family isn’t just about those we’re related to by blood; it’s where we find love, support, and a connection that keeps us going with our life’s passion and mission.
Can success really make you happy if it means losing these important relationships?
In Conclusion
The culture of non-stop productivity and constant work is not only wrong, but it is also harmful.
It’s time to reject this culture and adopt a more humane way of living and doing business.
Doing the right and rewarding tasks with enthusiasm is more important than just getting more done.
Don’t involve yourself in the rat race so much that you forget the true meaning of success.
Don’t forget human needs for rest, relaxation, and connection.
Reject the notion that we must be productivity machines.
It is a more humane approach to business, not just a different one.
It’s a must, not just acceptable.
