Stop Being Productive, Start Being Successful
Date: Friday, January 30 @ 00:00:00 PST Topic: Business
Are you
working harder and harder and becoming more productive yet you still
feel like there's much more to do with no end in site? The problem is
that productivity (doing something well) is only one of the three
pillars of success to your Success Making Machine. Below I highlight the other two pillars. Once you
integrate these easy steps your chances for success will significantly
increase.
Think There's some people who are productive
at the wrong thing. Like the person who efficiently creates the weekly
report every week- that isn't being read. In effect, they are being
efficient at not achieving their (career advancement) goals because
they are wasting time doing something that's not needed. Before you
achieve any success you need to know what your shooting for- think
about the goals. Then create a rudimentary plan for acheiving your
goals. This can be a quick back of the envelope session or a more
formal outlining- as long as you start thinking about what you really
want to achieve.
Enjoy So now you have a goal and a
plan and are being productive you still may not be successful unless
you enjoy what you're doing. Because once adversity hits (and it will)
the effort will be too hard. Here's a simple rule for enjoying your
work more: Do more of what you like and less of what you don't.
Next Steps
The
principles outlined here will get you on your way to success. But there
are still many more tools you can use to be more productive. The key is
to build your own system that will produce success even when you cant
put effort on to it. That is a Success Making Machine and it will
guarantee success.
Productivity is an admirable goal but there's
more to success than being productive. So think about what you want to
do and enjoy it.
