Your Goals Must Meet Your Intellectual Capacity

Intellect is your Super Power

First of all, let me tell you this, there is nothing on this planet that you cannot achieve no matter how difficult it is. Man is destined to reach his goal eventually.

Those who reach the summit earlier while others get stranded know the correct direction from early on as the journey starts. This journey is not about physical travel even though that is not much different from the skill I’m going to talk about. This skill is about navigating your way through the correct intellectual capacity to reach your goals.

People often miscalculate the relationship between success and intellectual capacity. One can find lots of people who are great at certain things while at the same time they don’t know how to communicate effectively and influence others. It might not hinder their way up to a great job but it can certainly cut off their chances of reaching the highest level in any organization that only lay after great communication skills.

To gain maximum benefits, one must need to articulate skills relatively on the intellectual side that met the goals and ambitions one has in life. It is easy to read and ignore but hard to act on it.

Picture this in your mind:

To climb a certain height on Mount Everest, one must calculate its implications before starting the adventure. You cannot climb Mount Everest because you heard from any random source that it’s the tallest mountain on this planet. You have to actually strategize the whole adventure, find safe routes and shortcuts, look at the weather and temperature, and much more than that. This process of brainstorming is a practice to up-level your intellectual capacity to decide to climb Everest. Without reaching the level of intellect that one needs to have to climb Mount Everest, it’s impossible to climb it. Your climb would be successful if you planned correctly based on the exact level of intellect needed to execute it.

Similarly, to get your dream job or pass the exam, you need to reach a certain intellectual level where the job exists or the exam be cracked. It would be hard to achieve your goals when in your mind, you're thinking about Mercedes; however, doubts don't let you think further from Suzuki Mehran.

What is a Wasteman Loop & How to avoid it?

Waqar Ahmed | The Productivity Science What is a wasteman Loop? For the past few days, I have been doing a lot of social media surfacing without realizing the effects of it on my productive life. I was so indulged in social media scrolling, liking, and sharing weird cat posts that I never realized I was wasting more than 4 hours per day of my precious life. Being into some business where there is no return value or profit is what I call a wasteman loop. Every once in a while I return to this wasteman life and I have to push myself again to keep focused on the main objectives in life. This on and off productivity is what I call the loop. I’m constantly worried about two things to happen in my life, first, when I start wasting my time on social media or any other stuff that adds zero value to my life, second, the continuous fight with consistency to not return to wasteman life and still end up becoming the wasteman I loathe. How does it affect your productivity? Being a wasteman has...

Become Productive by managing your Focus

Waqar Ahmed | The Productivity Science What it’s about? Human has a limited scope of focus. It can only do one thing at a time effectively. The more the focus is distributed on things, the less effective would be the productive results. Neuro-scientifically, it is not suggested for any human to do multi-tasking like browsing more than one topic on Internet as it would only be proven fatal to human attention, and the results won’t be satisfactory. Nothing better is achieved in distributing focus onto so many things at a single time. Why manage your focus? Focus is what makes our learning effective. When we start prioritizing time management, we often ignore the fact that if time is not well spent by following the proper standard operational procedures, the whole effort would be subsumed as zero. Time management must be coordinated with the management of focus. When we take only one target at a time and give our whole attention to it, the ultimate breakthrough takes place. Whenever ...

Focus out will bring zero Outcome

Waqar Ahmed | The Productivity Science To achieve big goals in life, one needs to have proper set goals to work on. It is important to highlight the urgent set targets on the wish-list to convince your cognitive thought process about the important goal that needs your urgent attention. Of course, the other stuff will also need your time and energy, but the urgent work that needs to be done this evening requires the time you’re having right now. If you can’t sacrifice your urgent time for urgent work, it would be really hard to get things done that have an impact on your life. Always create a focused strategy for important tasks. Don’t rush towards unnecessary clutter. It can wait, but the urgent assignment's due time won’t. So you need to be strategic and figurative all the time. When you are good at the management of micro-level challenges, your chances to succeed in the long run become too certain. It is also a real-life’s tragedy that everything we learn outside our real job s...
