Stress-free productivity does exist

If everything goes as we expect, we will publish a good amount of improvements in FacileThings next weekend.

Productivity is not a question of how much time a day you spend working. Sometimes, a day in which you’ve worked for just three or four hours can end up being much more productive than a day in which you’ve been trying to work for more than eight. Have you ever experienced this?

Visiting the coffee maker for the sixth time today? Sometimes, you’ve just got to get things done on deadline, or maybe you’ve got a big evaluation coming up and want to prove to your manager you deserve that raise.

The alarm goes off. A long day ahead to enjoy, but also a million things to do. You feel relaxed or worried about all the things you still need to do?

Have you ever tried to define the concept of productivity? If we take it as an economic term, an organization or a country is productive when it effectively uses all its resources, capital, materials, land, labor, information, and energy in the production of goods and services. If we’re talking about personal productivity, we’re still close to that definition. To make it as simple as possible, it means using all our resources (mainly time) to produce the best results with our work.
