Welcome 2022 with these Five new Habits

 Waqar Ahmed | The Productivity Science

Time flies like a storm. In two weeks we would be bidding farewell to 2021. To be honest, there is no special feeling about the change of the year. It would be just another day in the life. You probably would be doing the same work on 1st January 2022 like you were busy doing on 31st of December, 2021. 

Science suggests that having new goals and targets surely have an impact on life. Purpose gives reason to wake up earlier and start doing the work passionately. Jordan B. Peterson thinks that life without a formal schedule is a mess. You need to have proper planning in life. So if you missed doing any experiment with your life and want to improve productivity, this New Year's eve is the best chance to do it.

Following are the five habits you should immediately start working on as you enter New Year:

1. Read Books

No matter how voraciously you were reading books previously. Start again. Make a comprehensive list of the books you want to read in 2022. Pick your books for each month and make sure by the end of each month, you would finish at least a single book.

2. Learn a New Skill

What you have learned so far is no excuse to stop learning again something new. Select a new skill and dedicate a few hours of a single week to build that skill. It may sound boring at the moment, but believe me, when you achieve that skill, you would feel like a completely new human.

3. Invest your Time in friendship

Relationships are invaluable. No matter how busy you have got, make some time for your closed ones. Allow others to disturb you while you are busy working on some important projects. Those few minutes might give you a few extra points in your project, but you will end up losing on the biggest asset of human relationships. Make your friends feel valuable when they are around you.

4. Be kind to others without expecting anything in return

Kindness is about being nice to other lives on this planet. Make sure you enter in 2022 with this positive mindset that you want to help others without expecting anything in return. Believe me, after a few weeks you won’t even remember that you had helped someone, but your help might have changed someone’s life. So be willing t extend your help without looking for something in return. You will feel great about it.

5. Where do you want to be after one year in Life?

Make a clear target about a few things that you want to achieve in 2022. These goals are short-term and easily achievable. It could be a skill, travel to some new places, writing a story, or anything else. Make goals and act on them and also make a prediction about how achieving these goals would change your life by the end of the year. Set a clear target and start working on it.

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...
