Every day, millions of people run to work, looking at their watches, their thoughts are busy with work. They run, do not have time and ... do not understand at all where and why they are going. Despite this, they sorely lack time for their favorite activities, sleep, relaxation, physical activity and proper nutrition. These are busy people who are constantly fussing, in a hurry and thinking about the work (often unloved) that awaits them, because it is not a wolf. A productive person behaves differently. What is the difference between a productive person and a busy person?
- The busy person thinks they have a goal, the productive person knows it.
While taking his tiny steps towards success, a busy person rarely realizes what the essence of the success he is going to is, and constantly looks back at the others. Productive people do not care what they think of them, they confidently go to a clearly defined goal.
- Difference in the number of priorities.
A person who really wants to do something (be it leisure or work) will always find time for it. It's just a matter of priorities. If their number is three, these are priorities, 25 priorities is already a mess. The Pareto principle says that 80% of the desired results you get as a result of 20% of your activities. Busy people try to do better work, productive people develop systems that can improve work.
- A busy person agrees quickly, a productive person slowly.
The values of a productive person are clearly defined, and his time is the most valuable resource that serves precisely his values, and not the priorities of those around him.
- A busy person talks about his employment, a productive person talks about results.
A productive person doesn't talk for hours about his upcoming book - he concentrates on writing it. Few people are interested in what you are going to do, for most it is the result that matters. Therefore, to feel productive is not yet to be productive.
- Busy people complain about the lack of time, productive people make time for important activities.
Time wasted making excuses is time wasted. If you hone the skill of generating excuses, you will not succeed in anything else. A productive person thinks about whether a certain action contributes to the achievement of his goal and whether it contradicts his values - and only if the answer is yes, he takes up the matter.
- A busy person does many things at the same time, a productive person focuses on one thing.
The simplest technique of using the most basic timer is great for helping you focus on a task (like writing an article). Set a timer for 20 minutes and don't let anything interrupt your work until the beep sounds.
- Busy people want to keep everyone busy, productive people want to increase the efficiency of others.
Busy managers count working hours, productive managers count the result. A busy leader is annoyed when his wards have fun, look relaxed, satisfied. A productive leader admires the environment in which people enjoy working and enjoys the fact that colleagues enjoy their work. A busy person wants to be appreciated for his efforts, a productive person aims at the result.
- Productive people change, busy people just talk about it.
Less words, more action. Think about what you can do with the resources, knowledge and support you have? Come up with? Now take the first step, do not wait for the approval of others. You will be pleasantly surprised at how the Universe rewards people who, instead of empty talk about plans, take the initiative into their own hands and start acting!
Remember that every person is born with great potential, which should not be wasted on empty words, unnecessary actions and other people's success! It is never too late to become a productive person - you need to make decisions and start acting, because the result is worth it.
