Slow Down To Improve Productivity?

Slow Down To Improve Productivity?

Slow Down To Improve Productivity?  This sounds crazy, right?  Because, all along, we were schooled and trained to be fast and quick OR better be faster and quicker, for the same reasons that we want to be more productive.  BUT studies by experts do NOT support this practice.  Oh, ever since the Covid-19 Pandemic did hit us hard, we have been faced with unexpected and sometimes unyielding changes.  Our lives seem to have been uprooted, shaken to the hilt, and worst, it's left in disarray, if only to understate it📗📙📘

In short, we felt the pangs of panic and concern for our family members and had sleepless nights as we worried for our financial futures.  In the end, we seem to be in a constant state of flux as we pivot to deal with the most pressing crisis before us.  So, CHANGE is good.  However, some familiarity and predictiveness are necessary for a feeling of equilibrium to wash over us.  And this is our dilemma💦💦💦

Doing a lookup at recent researches, WHEN you slow down your mind, movements and processes, you will reduce your STRESS + BURNOUT and in the end, even enhance productivity.  In addition, by SLOWING DOWN, you will have more clarity about WHAT really matters.  So, instead of looking at WHAT is obvious and right in front of you, see WHAT is in the gaps and niches WHERE most people fail to look at.  That can help you get ahead of a problem and better still, find new solutions [and NOT recycled ones]💥💥💥

Taking a leaf from the gurus across vertical industries, consider to stretch beyond your COMFORT ZONE and even, dare yourself to GET LOST among the liminal edge, WHERE real growth can be explored and even learning opportunities can be unearthed.  WHERE to start?  Consider starting with TRUST itself.  Truth is, mistrust destroys curiosity, so consider TRUST and be in full control to know your 'ENOUGH' level.  You DO NOT always have to do more.   You can quite possibly succeed and be content as you are.  And from a human perspective, leverage on your HUMANITY to help others and pay it forward💧💧💧

Our takeaway:  FOCUS on WHAT you can control and LET GO of WHAT you cannot control at all.  The only consistent and expected thing is that CHANGE WILL HAPPEN [WHETHER you want it OR not, WHETHER you are ready for it OR not, that CHANGE is going to happen.  And do consider it as an opportunity for growth.  You DON'T want to get stalled and stagnate, right?  Do SLOW DOWN TO IMPROVE PRODUCTIVITY😃😃😃
