Productivity Thread

This is a short thread of thoughts that builds a model for improving productivity.

Discard the idea that talent rules

Talent is just a starting point. Nothing more.

Doing this opens the door to an optimistic perspective

Work on time proximity

Time is the most precious thing we have. We need to value using the moment.

Then listen to Johnny Cash sing - sense the danger. Once it’s over, it’s over.

Understand the two dimensions of engagement

Being busy feels good. Engagement in the moment.

But momentary engagement is just a first step.

Build a balance between being here now and being somebody over time

Two songs from Otis Redding (Dock of the Bay on the emptiness of losing vision) (When a Man Loves a Woman on the commitment that love offers)

 Work on engagement as a life style

The right side of the brain is your motor. But it will give up if you don’t embrace what it tells you.

This is vision plus. The rest is up to you.
