No stress productivity Newtons law on getting things done easy

No stress productivity Newtons law on getting things done easyNo stress productivity Newtons law on getting things done easyIn 1685, Sir Isaac Newton - a genius physicist with long, curly, white hair - set out to mathematically prove how planets moved through space and revolved around the sun.Over a period of 18 months, Newton isolated himself from the world, barely eating or sleeping, and working day and night until he discovered the proof. After years of painstaking work, Sir Isaac Newton submitted a 500 page draft of his findings to the Royal Society for publication.In 1687, his groundbreaking work was published. Widely considered to be one of the fruchtwein important scientific books ever written,The Principia Mathematical Principles of Natural Philosophy, laid the foundation for the science of mechanics through Newtons three famous laws of motion.Specifically, Newtons first law of motion contains useful ideas and analogies that can be applied to increase productivity in everyd ay life.Heres how to use Newtons first law to get mora stuff done the easy way.Newtons First Law of ProductivityNewtons first law of motion states that An object at rest remains at rest, or if in motion, remains in motion at a constant velocity unless acted on by a net external force.In laymans terms, an object in motion stays in motion, and an object at rest tends to stay at rest.Newtons First Law implies that procrastination leads to more procrastination, and action leads to more action. In other words, if we can simply get started on a task or goal, taking the next steps is much easier. But, this is easier said than done because most times, we struggle to overcome procrastination, get started andfollow through on our plans.Theres one common mistake that prevents us from staying productive. Its the difference between motion at rest and motion in action.Motion at Rest versus Motion in ActionOften, in the pursuit of our goals, we get stuck in motion at rest, instead of motion in act ion. Let me explain.Motion at restis busyness that doesnt produce any outcome by itself. On the other hand,motion in actionis a behavior that directly leads to an outcome.Here are some examples of the differences between motion at rest and motion in action If your goal is to lose weight and get in shape, researching diet plans and exercise programmes is motion at rest, eating a healthy meal and working out is motion in action.If your goal is to increase your business sales, creating a list of prospects is motion at rest, cold calling them is motion in action.If your goal is to write a research paper or a book, brainstorming ideas is motion at rest, writing a draft is motion in action.The difference between the two isresults.When we get stuck in motion at rest, we make little to no progress towards our goals. Conversely, motion in action produces results and brings us closer to achieving our goals.Motion at rest isnt bad, but its only useful up for a certain period of time, after whi ch, it becomes a form of procrastination that hurts our productivity.The schwierigkeit is that often, we spend the majority of our time stuck in motion at rest. As a result, a lot of time and energy is wasted, with little results to show for all of our efforts. The best way to increase productivity is to spend less time in motion at rest and more time in motion in action.Here are three simple ways to get things done and increase your productivity.3 ways to increase productivity1. Use the 2-minute ruleAn effective way tostop procrastinatingand move away from motion at rest, is to block out time, for the sole purpose of motion in action. One way to do this is to set a timer to work in two minute intervals. Within those two minutes your only focus is productive action, nothing else.For example, using the writing example, if youve spent 2 hrs researching ideas for a book or paper, set a timer for 2 minutes and just write. Once youve completed the two minute interval, you can take a brea k and return again later for another two minute interval.The purpose of this exercise is simply to help you get started on a task. Once you take action, it becomes easier for you to take further action and stay productive on the next task.2. Schedule 10 minutes of daily downtimeJust like how a saw used to chop down trees needs to be regularly sharpened, we also need regular periods of downtime to stay productive.Peak performance experts, Dr. Jim Leohr and Tony Schwartz suggest - in their book,The Power Of Full Engagement - that highly productive peoplemanage their energy betterthan everyone else. They regularly schedule downtime, which prevents burnout and helps them to recover from a period of motion in action, so that they have enough energy to tackle the next set of tasks.Its easy to confuse downtime with laziness, because they both involve doing nothing, but their not the same. Laziness is an unwillingness to take action. Downtime is the strategic use of your time to reenergiz e for another round of action.Block out ten minutes of downtime or more each day, tosharpen your saw.3. Match important tasks with energy levelsOne of the best ways to stay productive is to tackle your most important tasks, when you have the most energy to do so. For example, I typically writemy articleswhen I have the most energy between 7 a.m. and 11 a.m. Then, I work on my less creative, less important tasks in the afternoons and evenings.Building daily rituals around energy levels is a common strategy used byfamous writers, artists, athletes and entrepreneurs. By matching your most important tasks with your highest energy levels, getting started is easier. Plus, you avoid wasting precious time and energy on the least important tasks.Less rest, more motionNewtons first law is a fitting analogy for productivity in everyday life. By taking the first step away from rest to motion, staying in motion and getting things done becomes easier down the line.And just like a ball that keeps rolling down a hill, we can stay productive for a lifetime.Mayo Oshin writes atMayoOshin.com, where he shares practical self-improvement ideas and proven science for better health, productivity and creativity.To get practical ideas on how to stop procrastinating and build healthy habits, you can join his free weekly newsletterhere.A version of thisarticleoriginally appeared atmayooshin.comas The Physics of Stress-Free Productivity Newtons First Law on Getting Things Done the Easy Way.FootnotesInterestingly, Newton didnt self initiate the discovery of the three law of motion. It was physicist, Edmond Halley who convinced Newton to investigate these laws.The original idea of the 2-minute rule comes from David Allens book,Getting Things Done.Thanks toJames Clearfor inspiring the Newton analogy idea.

6 Val6 ValHumans are political animals and everywhere groups gather, a political environment emerges that determines whos in charge, who gets a vote on key decisions, and what work gets done. Someone or some group holds critical decision-making power over you and your progression. Ignoring this reality is nave. Consider the very real case of Ben (name changed to preserve anonymity). Case Study-Ben and His Boss Fall Victim to the Internal Game of Thrones Ben welches a product developer in a mid-sized manufacturer of industrial products with a great track record of devising and designing hit products. He welches blessed with a talent for observing customers in their environment and designing products that solved problems or reduced burden. Ben was ambitious, as well, and he firmly believed he could do more for his firm if he were in a managerial role guiding a team of product developers. He had lobbied his boss aggressively on this promotion, and his boss had actively advocated for Ben in senior management meetings. Unfortunately, the last two promotion cycles had come and gone and Ben had leid yet earned that promotion. Both Ben and his boss were frustrated. A bit of the back-story on Ben is in order here. While everyone recognized his great abilities as a product developer, he was widely viewed as socially awkward. He was an awkward communicator and his outward demeanor suggested that he was unapproachable. Sadly, perception is reality and in spite of Bens successes and his bosss advocacy, there was another executive actively lobbying to lead the product development efforts. This executive was an adversary of Bens boss and whenever the idea of Ben being promoted was suggested, this adversary would offer, I know Ben is great at his work, but weve all seen him in action with groups. Does anyone really believe hes ready for a leadership role? This passive-aggressive attack derailed the discussion and Bens prospects every time. In this situation, both Ben and h is boss were victims of the political dynamics in senior management at this firm. Bens boss was failing on two counts in spite of his positive support for Ben. First, he had failed to provide Ben with coaching to help him overcome his communication and social challenges. Second, he had failed to develop a strategy to fend off or neutralize his adversary. A Strategy Switch Wins the Day for Ben and His Boss Eventually, Bens boss recognized the issues in play and took action to fix them. He engaged a coach who worked with Ben over a six-month period to help him dramatically strengthen communication and interpersonal skills. And he leveraged his role on the senior management team to provide Ben with more face-time on key product development issues. The combination of coaching and increased exposure effectively neutralized the adversarys tactics. Ben gained that much deserved and sought after promotion and today, Bens team is known as a hit machine, with a long string of product succ esses. His boss was promoted to senior vice-president. 6 Valuable Lessons on Workplace Politics You dont have to play dirty, but you have to play The best way to cultivate power is to help others achieve their objectives. Reciprocity- the belief that they owe you their support- is a powerful force.Someone always wants what you have or disagrees with what you are doing While your noble intent is indeed noble if you ignore the political dynamics in play, you are nave.Strive to understand the political landscape. It pays to understand who has the powerto help you succeed. It also pays to cultivatepositive relationships with those individuals. You have to give to get Giving power- or helping others create power- is a powerful method to grow your own power.Todays team members are tomorrows allies While its always a little sad to lose a valued employee to another function, the upside is that you now have a valuable ally in another part of the organization. Great power brokers plant th eir allies all over the organization.Sun Tzu was right- keep your friends close and your enemies closer I prefer to engage with my adversaries to strive to understand their positions and objectives, and to attempt to find common ground. While finding common ground might not be possible, at least I develop an understanding of what makes them tick. The Bottom-Line Too many people shy away from the issues of politics and power in the workplace. I dont want to play the games, is a common refrain I hear. Im not asking you to play dirty however, I am encouraging you to take into account the realities of human interaction in groups and play. Fail to read the political signs in your organization and I guarantee youll get lost.

And this particular training focused only on the male-female binary. Employees who identify as transgender or nonbinary might feel even more burdened by dress code policies based on gender. pImagine how much more productive all employees, regardless of gender, could be, if they werent focused on avoiding dress code policing.pTraditional gender-based dress codes can also discriminate on the basis of race. Many grooming guidelines for women, including rules on acceptable haircuts, are extra burdens for black employees, particularly those who want to wear their hair in natural styles. In 2010, Chastity Jones got a job offerto be a customer service representative from Catastroph e Management Solutionsbut the offer was contingent on her cutting off her locs. When she refused, the company took back the job offer, and when she sued, with the help of the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, she lost her case in 2013 and again in 2016, when her appeal was dismissed. pAnd beyond forcing women of color to maintain their hair in a way thats deemed acceptable, gender-based dress codes can also discriminate against people of certain religions. Employees whose faiths keep them from cutting their hair or necessitate that they wear certain clothing (including head coverings) shouldnt be forced to adapt their beliefs to what their employer deems professionally appropriate for a woman at work.pThe possibility for gender-, race-, and faith-based discrimination posed by prescriptive employee dress codes has led the Human Rights Campaign to recommendthat if an employer has a dress code, it should modify it to avoid gender stereotypes and enforce it consistently.
