I am sure you want to be productive which is the
reason you are reading this article right now.
Before I proceed, I need to ask you this
question?
Is it possible to birth something forth without
a seed process?
The same implies to you being productive. You
cannot be productive if you don’t have the right tools for productivity to
spring forth.
In order for you to be productive, you need to
prioritize your activities on a daily basis. (I call it the P.R. system). Don’t
engage in activities that will not improve you nor improve others around you.
If possible, try and map out your daily
activities; you can use your mobile journal app or moleskin.
I posted this article today within this time frame because I
scheduled it for today.
However, you need to constantly remember that
you cannot achieve anything if you are not determined to do it. I can decide to
loaf for a month end, I will only fool myself not you. Remember that we are our
“Worst Enemies.”
Don’t put what you can do today for an unknown
tomorrow. Never allow the little pleasure of today rob you of a lifelong regret
due to procrastination.
Turn off any form of distraction in prioritizing
your activities, you can start small from little task to a more cumbersome
task.
In scheduling your activities, don’t write what
you don’t have the capacity to achieve. For example, saying “I want to read 47 Common
Mistake Nigerian Bloggers Makes by Dayo Samuel today,” and you don’t have the
book is fruitless. You need to schedule activities that are realistic and
achievable.
Don’t over work yourself all because you want to
be productive. Try and get enough rest and also eat.
You can also find time to observe what I call
“ME TIME” (M.T.). It’s usually my Meditation Hours which I observe before I
sleep.
I enjoy sleeping late because those moments are
always insightful and renewing for me. If you want to know how and what I
engage in during Meditation Hours, ask me and I will write an article about it.
*chuckles*
Find time to read books that will add value,
enlarge your horizon also listen to audio messages and attend seminars based on
what you are seeking for.
At this point, you may be wrinkling your nose
and thinking “I just cannot do it”. Its 9 minutes, stop the flow of that
thought right now and Act. Yipee!!! Its 10 minutes.
