I was reading a book on productivity called
Manage Your Day-To-Day: Build Your Routine, Find Your Focus, and Sharpen Your Creative Mind
when I stumbled on the quote that I put on the image. Information today has become more of a problem than a solution for the productive man (or woman).
The sheer volume of it is enough to send you of tracks when working on a project or a goal. That is why I think 2 things are really important when striving for exceptional productivity and time management.
- Having a daily routine that works in your favor. Build in your days routines and rituals that are about creation and not just reaction to information. That way, if you stick to it, you will limit the time spend on useless browsing and target your energy and focus to the things that will help you the most.
- Learn to search. I see this problem almost daily. People do not know how to search for information properly and they get lost in the volume of general data coming their way. Take the time to train in retrieving information and you will be more productive and focused!
Don't let information hold you back from action taking and results!
Have an awesome day!
