Secrete to a Productive Life

Waqar Ahmed | CEO Science of Everything
Why is it hard to become productive


You are never too late to start again from the scratch. There is always a way out towards the right path. But before we find a true path, we must acknowledge there’s nothing wrong with being wrong and mistaken. Every human has its weaknesses and strengths. Being creative does not mean always correct. Being old does not mean being mature. There is always the other side of the story. What is your story in life?

Do you want to become productive in life? Are you struggling to complete your assignments within the due date? Are you a social media addict? Do you think you are wasting time on social media scrolling down the screen all day long?

Welcome on board

We all have been that person who senselessly wastes time. Being lazy nerds!

For most of the millennials and Z Gen, the issues start off with social media. They have grown up in the time of Internet social media, selfies, and WhatsApp all around. Nowadays it's crypto and NFTs everywhere. It’s confusing but also rewarding. The trouble in this overly exposed information climate is to balance life.

Every day we wake up asking ourselves many questions ourselves. Why didn’t I wake up at 7: 00 am? It’s only 10 minutes left before my classes start.

What should I do, breakfast or dress up and run for the class? Oh, I didn’t finish my school assignment last night, I was hanging out with friends and I don’t think I will get any time in school to finish writing up.

I didn’t fill the gas into my car last night and now I’m already running short of office time. How would I manage that?

Life is a gift and we must not spoil it.

Productive life is the aspiration of almost 7.7 billion people on this earth. But reading others' success stories is way easier than putting ourselves into their shoes and realizing how hard it is to reach that level. Productivity means pushing yourself one minute more than you had planned. And this process plays in black and white. 

While you are going through the struggles, there’s no colorful painting on the wall and background music of Harry Potter or even a nice girl waiting on the door for you to finish the work to meet her. Work is always exhausting because it consumes energy.

So here is the true test. What should you do to continue your struggle in the right direction?

How do you maintain your personal life and achieve accomplishments in life goals?

For me, the true sense of accomplishment is the completion of a job. The motivation is the possible outcome of the work that I have just finished. And it is not the motivation that pushes me to start working. There is a huge difference in this.

Motivation is the reason I start doing the work, instead, I feel motivated once I have finished my work.

What is your productive life SOPS? How do you keep yourself motivated during the process and take it to the other side of the bridge? Comment your thoughts.

Steal like an artist by Austin Kleon

  Book Cover (Source: Tapan Desai) Summary (informal) Everyone wants to become something in his life.  There’s no single formula to achieve one’s desired destination.  In this rapidly changing information climate, everything has become more competitive and less rewarding for those who do not pay more attention to details.  It is healthy to settle one’s mind to steal ideas productively from those who have experimented with them successfully.  There’s no harm in stealing ideas as there’s nothing as new to the world today given the scale of information exchange around the globe due to the Internet.  Since everything is already available on Google, one must go there and copy from authentic sources.  Make changes in it and sell it to the world. While you are working on the project, keep an eye on wrongs that might discredit the efforts.  Copying from a single person is plagiarism, but doing the same thing from more than one is research.  A good ar...

New Year's Gift - 2022

  Waqar Ahmed | The Productivity Science What would be a better gift than changing personal thoughts from being negative to a positive person? It is okay to be cynical, it allows us to vent out our anger, but that’s not the permanent solution to a Human’s mental frame. We need to have a peaceful mind to make better judgments about our own life for the long run. That’s why it is important to have some positive life aspects. Without positivity, it would not be an easier job to find the truth and make the right decisions. The reality of life is deeply connected with the nature of reality, and without any pursuit of truth, we cannot find reality in life. This year, let’s begin by making this resolution that, no matter what, I will always find something positive about everything. It will help get rid of the trash (useless thoughts) inside of our minds and make us a better version of ourselves.

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...
