Stress-free productivity does exist

GTD is not more than the combined use of three work models that David Allen defined as a result of years and years of coaching others to become more efficient in their jobs and in their lives.

After the last economic crisis, it seems that we must learn to be more productive, to do more with less. In recent years this has led, mainly small businesses and self-employed people, to limit somewhat their vacations.

Although, as I explained last week, procrastination can be approached in a positive way, the fact is that, in general, procrastination is an enemy of your productivity that hinders you tapping your potential.

Procrastination is a behavior whose consequences can be significantly negative. However, it seems that there are ways and tricks to transform this behavior into productive activity. At least that is what certain theories about positive procrastination say.

Curiously, when we realize that our personal productivity is not as good as we would like, the first thing we do is looking for new systems, methods and applications that help us to get better organized. Instinctively, we dodge the issue: “If I’m not productive enough is because the tools I use don’t fit well with me.”
