How to get more productive in our daily life
Modern man understands the word "to keep up" with running, speed, constant haste. Did you know that the words “keep up” and “success” have the same roots? Both of these words came from the verb "to sing", which had 4 meanings: to move hastily, to store, to help, to develop. These values reflect well the important meanings of our life:
Hurrying to move means spending time on sports, and, consequently, recharging yourself with energy, good mood , and health. All this greatly saves our time, because we do not waste it on illness and poor health, and inner fulfillment contributes to the development of inner motivation.
To store up means to spend time on sleep, rest. By overworking and not getting enough sleep, people do not achieve more, but overstrain and burn out.
Helping means sharing your experience, knowledge, strength with other people. But how does this help optimize time? By creating warm bonds with family and other loved ones, we protect ourselves from stress and fear, and also ensure a constant level of satisfaction with life. Sharing knowledge with other competent people provides a synergistic effect, that is, with the same efforts, the result becomes much better.
To develop means to invest in the future, because with constant training of the brain, the speed of reaction, attentiveness, flexibility of thinking increases, and the speed of learning increases. Neurobics helps to develop without allocating special time for this . You perform your usual actions, but with a slight change. For example, brush your teeth with your other hand, take a different route, or dress with your eyes closed.
Often, universal advice is not perceived by people, because each person has his own goals, his own capabilities, his own desires. Therefore, make a timing of your time for several days and analyze what exactly your time is wasted on. Modern time management technologies involve the use of mobile applications and gadgets, and this should also be used.
Where does the time go? Most of these reasons (if not all) are present in the life of every person. Knowledge of the basic principles and techniques of time management , as well as a few simple, but very effective recommendations , helps to prevent the waste of time .
How effectively time is spent depends on what kind of people we are surrounded by. In NLP ( neurolinguistic programming ), there are two types of people: people "in time" and people "out of time".
There are two perspectives of time perception: "included time" / "in time" and "end-to-end time" / "out of time". Included time is the time perceived by a person at the moment. In this case, an imaginary timeline passes through the human body, that is, a person perceives himself as associated, as if directly in time. Through time is the time perceived by a person in an abstract way. At the same time, the timeline of the past, present and future is presented separately from himself, that is, a person sees himself dissociated, as if outside of time.
People "in time" are more emotional and relatively easy to make contacts with others. Due to emotional involvement, these people can “stick” to situations themselves and distract other people with conversations. Their plus is that they remember events and their meaning well, they have developed emotional intelligence . When completing tasks, these people usually rely on the amount of effort that needs to be put in, rather than hours or days. They are focused on short and medium term planning.
People "out of time" are usually of a rational mind, they remember numbers, facts, data well. But they have insufficiently developed communication skills. They have good analytical and organizational skills. Usually they can clearly define by what date a given task can be completed. They are focused on medium and long term planning.
To quickly determine which person is in front of you, pay attention to speech and gestures. A person "in time" uses emotionally charged words, for example, "glad", "hate", "admired", "great", as well as figurative metaphors. The voice is filled with shades, and facial expressions are mobile, a lot of gestures. A person “out of time” expresses itself logically and concisely, using words such as “allowed”, “prohibited”, “analyze”, “illegal”. The voice is rather monotonous and monotonous , facial expressions and gestures are limited (by the way, you can carry out such a diagnosis for yourself).
"Enjoy, take your time, but act, do not hesitate" - For this, it is necessary to harmoniously combine a person “in time” and a person “out of time”. How realistic is it to combine these two ways of perceiving time? It is believed this is real and recommends actively developing the guided hemisphere of the brain.
Most people on the planet are right-handed, and, therefore, they have a more developed left - the logical hemisphere. Therefore, it is usually required to develop the right creative hemisphere. It is the right hemisphere that is responsible for visualization - an important programming tool for the future.
A proactive person does not wait with confusion for the future, he represents it. He imagines what his 30th wedding anniversary will be like, how his children will go into independent life, what his life will be like in retirement. Present all of this in detail, using as many senses as possible.
So being on time means getting physically moving, storing energy with quality rest, helping others, and growing. You can get more done by eliminating time-wasting activities. Perception "outside of time" helps to organize and control your time well, and perception "in time" allows you to enjoy the time as much as possible.
You can tune your brain to use your time efficiently with a positive attitude that helps you move in a given direction. For example, you can visualize and regularly mentally say: “I plan, organize, coordinate and control my time well. And I do it with pleasure. "
As you can see, learning to do more in a day is quite simple. But, naturally, this is not enough, and we need to develop in this direction as intensively as possible.
I wish a good luck!
