How to be productive

How working less can make you more productive

How working less can make you more productive

Just before my birthday, I had a lovely brunch with my good friend, Eunice

It was so good! 🤤

We laughed and chatted

And, like how it always goes, the conversation fluctuated between serious topics to the both of us just belly laughing

One of the topics that stood out for me was the one we had about the 7-F Framework or the Wheel of Life

There are different versions of it but the one I follow covers (in no particular order):

  1. Faith

  2. Family

  3. Friends

  4. Firm (business or work)

  5. Fun

  6. Fitness

  7. Finance

In my conversation with Eunice, I told her about the “Fun” aspect of my life

i.e. how I’d shifted my mindset, and how doing so has not only improved my productivity but my relationship with being productive

For example, if you know me, you know I always say “October is my birthday"

In the past, this meant I’d reserve this month for fun, being with friends, brunch dates and just letting my hair down a little more

So I always had great expectations when it came to October, in the past, but this year was different

How to increase your productivity in one simple step

In September, I found myself asking myself a series of questions

I know you’re thinking “Such as?”

Like: "What is it that makes me the most happy, and how can I incorporate that into my life on more of a daily basis?"

But that was very much at the beginning of the month

I think that anybody who knows me well, knows that I love traveling

Yes, it's because I get to experience different cultures and spend time with the people that I love and eat delicious food and all of that sort of jazz

But I also realise that part of what I love about holidays and traveling, is also the person that I am when I'm on holiday

I know what I'm going to wear on each day, and I'm hyped to wear those things. I know what I'm going to do, I know who I'm going to see

So, not only am I more relaxed, but actually, I am more organised

With this in mind…

In line with that, one of the things that I started to ask myself every day in September (after this realisation) was:

Lessons from Asenath on how to be productive

Lessons from Asenath on how to be productive

So for the last 2 weeks, lovely, we’ve been doing a lot of talking about Asenath and what she gave birth to- particularly with regards to the significance of her first son’s name (Manasseh).

Today, we’ll be moving right along to decoding the significance of her second son’s name (Ephraim) and what she has to teach us about being productive- all of which I shared on my Facebook page this week via the (live) video below.
