Hey friends, welcome back to another blog. Hope y’all had an amazing week because my week was super fun; our school got over!! In today’s blog, I am expressing my views on “productivity”, this is inspired by one of my favorite YouTubers, Ali Abdaal.
Okay, so when we use the word productivity, we generally refer to the amount of work we’ve completed and how efficiently we did it. When we say my day was extremely productive, we usually look at the number of tasks we finished, and how much work we managed to accomplish. This is not wrong, if you manage to do a lot of work, it is 100% counted as productivity. But have you ever thought that meeting your friends over coffee or spending time with your dad having an insightful conversation listening to his stories, or even meditating/ journaling is counted as productivity.
Anything that has a purpose, helps us grow, and makes us happy is productivity.
We have stereotyped productivity as the amount that we complete, but we should look at it from a different perspective as well. Working out, cycling, meeting your friends, spending quality time with family, reading, writing, meditation, relaxing, and even sleeping is productive. These things help us grow as a person and bring purpose to our lives. Obviously, these should be done in control and under limits, excess of anything is not good!
That’s it for this one, have a great week. See ya!
This was truly a short and productive one 👍 You have rightly defined the meaning of productivity
