Great thinkers let their Minds go Wild

 Waqar Ahmed | The Productivity Science


We often tend to forget how important it is to appreciate ourselves for being the true warrior on this planet. The roles we have been given or maybe we consciously chose them, it’s true that we’re trying our best to do justice with those roles. History is first envisioned inside the mind and then applied to the ground field. All begin with minds thinking about those events to happen. There is rarely any event in the history of humanity that we could assume as unpredictable. It was human engineering that allowed for the events to happen in ways they took place.


Less than a century ago, this planet was confronted with an existential threat where the entire globe was divided into two sections and a fight for dominance came into momentum. Fortunately, it ended in 1945 with millions lay slain. Luckily in those darkest of hours when humans couldn’t fathom looking outside their homes, managed to survive.

The conjunction of the global community began as a result of a post egalitarian outburst. Scientific thoughts started shaping the world and democracy suddenly became a lifestyle. The king became liable to the law of land after 1789. These all great innovations took place because humanity allowed thinking to be a part of their cultural evolution. The greatest thinkers became the frontman representation of society and peasants headed towards hibernation.

Thinking is what made these greatest breakthroughs possible in our culturally complex societies. We started identifying ourselves as free beings. The end of tyranny became the classic beginning of egalitarianism. Men and Women both became equal pillars of society. Pluralism became our badge of honor.

Today, we stand united against all the pitfalls that want to trigger the clash of civilization. This is the creation of humanity. Without thinking, we would not have achieved these greatest milestones. It is because of those crazy humans who thought differently that we witness these changes happening around us today at a grass route level.

Nothing is possible without realizing the deeper meaning of what has been made normal around our social fabric in which we live, breath, and die. Establish different perspectives and you will start detecting the patterns in the culture that are functioning against its own very fabric. But no one realizes it until someone deliberately learns to look at them. It’s deep, and to dig deep you need sharp tools, like knowledge and awareness.

Knowledge allows the mind to go wild, and purposefully creates a space where real change takes place. A self-aware human always values reconciliation with the Universe. If today we are safe and happy, it is because of harmony with the Universe. It has resulted in peace for all, and we all have contributed to the peace-building on this planet.

It is because we chose to think and understand that we have got here where we are today. This understanding of the world might be okay for today but it doesn’t ensure a safe tomorrow. There are spoilers who want to reverse this progress that humanity has created after centuries of hard work. And it is upon us to not just safeguard today’s knowledge, but also make sure there is continuity in the knowledge creation to ensure a safe future for future generations. It is our moral obligation. Let the seekers lead from the front.

“You will do the greatest services to the state if you shall raise not the roofs of the houses, but the souls of the citizens: for its better that great souls should dwell in small houses than for mean slaves to lurk in great houses.” - Epictetus

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...
