Stress-free productivity does exist

It has been proven that the fact of setting goals has a direct relationship with the execution of tasks. In other words, establishing goals makes us more productive.

We all have goals and to-do lists, and getting things done as quickly as possible is usually on our minds as soon as we get out of the bed in the morning. This can put a lot of pressure on you and lower your self-confidence. But how do you start getting organized? Even though it sounds simple, you need to set some rules to get you through your workday.

The other day I was watching an old episode of The Big Bang Theory in which Sheldon (a character), who is stuck in his investigation on dark matter, looks for ways of getting stressed on purpose and asks his friends to annoy him. With all of this, he is trying to induce what’s known as productive anxiety, a state of optimal stress for productivity.

Productivity does not come naturally to anyone. It’s not inherently built in your system. Instead, productivity is a matter of habits. You can only acquire it through hard work and patience. And it will take time to come. But when it does come, you will suddenly feel like 24 hours in a day are actually enough!

Despite the use of technology or the number of helping hands you have available to your cause, it will all be meaningless if you do not practice habits that encourage productivity.
