Talking to Miss. Universe! (POEM)

Waqar Ahmed | The Productivity Science


POEM

You are living in this world, so you’re a part of this Universe.

Your existence is unbridled and unavoidable.

Listen to the sounds of nature; it calls for something all time.

I cannot hear that voice, am I deaf?

Universe is the name of peace, have you experienced?

I’m in a part of world, full of distortions, injustice waves on top.

This is not my creation; I’m Ms. Universe, infallible and unfathomable.

Your inside certainly needs some guidance though!

Is that the case, let them fix it by themselves, I’m busy.

People are not sane to understand your plight, Ms.

They are and they will.

How?

They have to figure this out; God bestowed upon them the intellect.

I’m a human but I can’t think of a better solution to this mess.

You’re human; little is your known conscious.

Then how am I going to fix the inside of yours?

Let it be; you better focus inside yours!

Why so?

Change you want to see comes always from inside.

What can I do to reform my inside?

Listen to the sounds of nature, it has messages in it.

I’m busy solving the riddles of this messy life.

You are sure busy, but not as much as you pretend it to be.

Oh. Ms. Universe, do you talk to God?

Yes, I do all the time.

Ask him to help humans; they’re ignorant of their existence!

God has already given me the answer to your question.

What was the answer, please?

Humans have to figure out the solution.

Is God helpless?

No, he’s the most generous and helpful.

Then, why he doesn’t want to intervene?

God is here to help you only when you ask him for it.

I’m asking for his help.

What about your fellow billions?

I don’t know about them.

Listen, I’m tired of your questions.

I’m just looking for a better life.

Then go help others.

Why?

Many are lost in their journey to the hereafter.

Am I rightly in the correct direction?

It’s you who has to figure this out.

Oh. Universe, I’m lazy, I don’t have time for all this.

Then go sleep have daydreams.

Is it anger?

No, it’s the real you, living at the time.

How come, I’m talking to you?

You’re only here to find ease, not the solution of problems.

I think I better go back and watch YouTube.

You better deserve that.

Was that again a taunt?

I’m Universe, I don’t trade these things.

Alright, I will come back to you again.

Hoping not to see you again, Bye…

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...
