Idleness and procrastination are opposites of productivity and result in ineffectiveness and wasted potential.

Your productivity does not depend on access to excellent resources; it starts with a decision to do the best you can with the resources you have now.

ENEMIES OF PRODUCTIVITY:

  • Procrastination:  People often excuse a lack of action by planning to eventually complete the task. But procrastination prevents us from giving our best effort.
  • Fear of Failure:  Even the most productive people experience failure on the way to success, but they learn from their mistakes and use them to move forward wisely. Strive for excellent results, not perfection at every step.
  • Multitasking:  Many of us want to believe we can successfully accomplish several things at once; however, multitasking can lead us to start multiple projects without bringing them all to completion.
