We all have exactly the same amount of time. At least in a day. Some of us have less time than others in our lives, probably, which makes using that valuable time wisely all the more important. However, that’s the false perception of time. The idea that, because we’re young, we have all the time in the world…so chill. Enjoy. Right? Just because we’re young, how we use our time will set habits that build a foundation for our life and work. Young or old, learning how to be consummately productive is a very good plan. When we do the work of learning to be “ultra productive” part of what we gain out of that is…more time. Definitely worth the work.<\/p>\n

I’ve written on productivity other times (in particular, about “Chris Bailey’s life of productivity”<\/a>). Using time and brain power wisely is important to me because I am well aware of how easy it is to squander both. When I discovered the two infographics below, they affirmed some of the changes I’ve already made in my life and other habits worthy of establishing.<\/p>\n

Kevin Kruse<\/a> in a Forbes article<\/a> gives us results of his survey of 200 ultra-productive people. He asked each their secret of productivity.\u00a0 The infographic below lists out the 15 ideas gleaned from his study.\"blog-productive-people-do-things-differently-15-time-secrets\"<\/a>Photo Credit: Online Learning Tips<\/a><\/p>\n

Anything surprise you? I was surprised at getting rid of to-do lists by scheduling everything. The “say no to everything” idea can be agonizing to execute and also infuriating when you’re on the receiving end.\u00a0 Every idea in the list of 15 is doable and easy to develop as a habit. Worth a try, right?<\/p>\n

Another infographic (from Dylan Roach<\/a> and<\/span> Jacquelyn Smith <\/a>in Business Insider<\/a>) highlights the morning habits of successful people. This also resonated with what I have discovered in the lives of influential and productive friends and colleagues. \"blog-productive-people-do-things-differently-16-things-at-start-of-each-day-update-or-die\"<\/a>Photo Credit: Business Insider<\/a><\/p>\n

I appreciate the ideas of this infographic…especially the ones on helping others<\/a> and being grateful<\/a>. Soft habits maybe? Not really. When the ideas above get hard-wired in us through habit formation and intentionality, our productivity ramps up and our definition of success may widen to a more shared experience in our life and work.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
