How Much Time Do You Waste? [Hidden Dragon BizBlog 1.2]
Every day we do things, busy things, yet sometimes we fail to be productive. Why is that? Mark Shead ( Link )wanted to know the answer, so he asked a bunch of people in the Productivity Blogging Indusry. Here is his introduction:
Interviews With Productivity Experts
Published by Mark Shead on June 12, 2007 at Productivity 501I have contacted a number of individuals who run blogs about time management, personal productivity, and organization. I asked them all three questions:
- What is the single biggest way people waste time without even realizing it?
- What change has made the most difference in making you effective in life?
- If someone were to read just one post from your site, which would you recommend they read and why?
The response has been spectacular…
The result is spectacular as well. So many terrific responses, with a concise running commentary that includes personal examples. This post is a must read!
Here is a little slice:
The term “productivity application†is grossly misused in my opinion. A productivity application is something that lets you focus on your productive work. Most “productivity applications†are full of all kinds of features to allow us to do things that add no value whatsoever. We can add animation to our PowerPoint slides, change the color of our fonts in Word, and use email to subscribe to jokes. If you need to write the content for a document, Notepad with spellcheck is probably a better productivity tool than about any wordprocessor.
