What is productivity?

Most of us have watched tons of videos on the topic of productivity over a while. When someone asks to describe the term productivity, we may fumble even though we have gone through a lot of content created by the so-called productive gurus.

Watching those videos gives us new insight, but it is like the 5 to 10-minute motivational videos. One after another, we keep on watching. We usually picture in our mind that these "productive gurus" are so productive and they are living a great life. But take a step and think that they might be introducing some apps that may help organize our work or the morning routine they follow. Are they following these steps in their life?

These are made just for another video in their channel. Humans are always interested in peeping into other's lives, particularly that of successful people. They exploit this behavior of our brain, and the rest of everything is clever marketing.

Most of the videos we watch on youtube are of the same kind. Power of reading, journaling, organizing work, exercising, having a good diet plan, reducing social media use, getting up early, and so on. These are essential pieces of stuff that everybody knows, and still, we don't follow. What we do is, we see a lot of self-improvement videos thinking that there might be some magic they are going to say, so that without any effort we can be more productive.

One thing we can do is take a break every day and think on our own. We don't need to spend hours watching others teaching how to live our life.

I started with a question, and I am leaving it for you to answer. Find your answer because sometimes your solutions are way better than you hear from others.
