productivity

The latest creation of the productivity guru is not a new method, but a clock that counts the days that are missing to die

by

A little over a year ago, in Xataka We talk about ‘second brain‘, that concept popularized by the productivity guru Tiago Forte. His latest novelty is not another book or other method, but A tool as simple as disturbing: Death Clocka calculator that predicts with mathematical precision the date of your death based on 17 custom variables. The calculator tells you, after answering some questions about your life habits, the exact day in which you are expected to die. And although it sounds a bit macabre and childish, the idea makes sense. Obviously, it is not an exact prediction or intends to be. It is rather a Mori memento digitala modern way of practicing that old philosophical exercise of contemplating our mortality to live better. The application simply translates your habits into a longevity estimate: changes from “sedentary” to “intense daily exercise” and you will see how a decade of life instantly wants. A numerical visualization of how our daily decisions accumulate over time. The first questions of the questionnaire. Click on the image to go directly to the application. Image: Death Clock. And a technological curiosity: Forte does not know how to program, so he built the entire application in a few hours by resorting to the VIBECODING With ia. He basically told a programming assistant what he wanted and this was creating the code for him. What really matters is how your perspective changes knowing that you have already exhausted, for example, 40% of your life. Suddenly, that meeting that could have been resolved with an emailthat mediocre series that you are seeing by inertia or that project that you carry postponing for years take a completely different weight. It’s not about being morbid or depressed thinking about the end. Not even giving more importance than what it simply puts figures to what we should intuit. Simply becoming aware of our finitude helps us to filter the noise and focus on what we really want to do with the limited time we have. It forces us to ask ourselves if this is what I want to spend one of the days I have left. And maybe there is the key to productivity. Not to do more things, but to do the right ones. Those that really matter. In Xataka | The “Johari Window”: understand how others see us unlock a good part of our potential Outstanding image | Xataka with Mockuuuups Studio

What I learned from a Victorian bureaucrat about productivity

by

There are those who seek productivity in Scandinavian design applications, there are those who track the paper notebooks and there are those who expect to find it in beep and alert -based methods. Anthony Trollope found her on a pocket watch. He was a mail official in Victorian England. Before signing, between 5:30 and 8:30 in the morning, He wrote 250 words every fifteen minutes. Without excuses. No inspiration. And so, book by book, they arrived More than forty novels. His method, which James Clear rescued in One of his guides on habits and frictionshows a paradox: that in the era of automation and asynchronous flows, what we most need is something as simple as a fixed, measurable, short and demanding interval. Indirect discipline. Trollope did not pursue Muses, replaced them with a system. The great enemy of the great projects It is not the lack of talent, but indefinite delay. Postpone, PROCASTINE. Starting to write a book seems like such a tedious task that many prefer to plan it forever. Trollope reduced the scale until he stopped being overwhelming. A quarter of an hour. Two hundred fifty words. Nothing else. Nothing less. When a novel ended, he did not rest or celebrate it: he turned the sheet and started the next in the same block. As if he understood that continuity is more powerful than motivation. And that the habit muscle is trained with rhythm, not with intensity. It must be said that Trollope did not have to suffer the tyranny of today’s notifications and distractions (Slack, mails, messaging …), but despite that advantage, he cultivated the Attentional monogamy: One thing at a time and without looking at the clock except to obey it. The stopwatch as an accomplice, not as a tyrant. An advance of deep work. Four daily blocks are more than one hundred per month. And fifteen minutes per block are nothing, until they are everything. Give to write about 30,000 monthly words when the rhythm is taken. And each block begins with a tangible victory, easy to reach. Instead of waiting for the perfect moment (which never arrives), I was adding one more page to the castle. Trollope practiced deep work without calling it that, and without turning it into a ritual. He was less monk Zen and more worker of the word. And he reminds us that The important thing is not to write much, but always write. That time is not found. And that, perhaps, the only thing that separates the amateur from the professional is the ability to divide an Everest in a succession of fifteen -minute steps.

Thus the “time thieves” act and how to recover your productivity

by

Starting from the humble basis of accepting that We are not robots but peoplewe can rarely be 100% efficient throughout the day, both when meeting the workday, studies or personal tasks. However, it is very likely that at the end of the study or the study session you have the feeling that You have not advanced In your most important tasks, even if you have not stopped for a moment. According to explained in the podcast Write About Now The writer and productivity expert Laura Vanderkam, this occurs because there are certain habits and routines that act as authentic time thievesremoving minutes and hours without you realizing. Identify and face them can make a difference between A productive day and one full of frustration that affects both your work performance and your personal well -being. Time escapes in small distractions The simplest thing is that the time you dedicate to a specific task ends by diluting, drop by drop, In other distractions. It may be that while you work in a project, you are distracted when you receive a notification, answer a message or check the mail. As they commented on the Asana productivity blogeach interruption can make you lose up to 20 minutes to recover the initial concentration levels. Thus, the minutes are added and, At the end of the day, you have lost a significant amount of time In activities that were not in your plans and, what is worse, that you don’t know where all that time has gone. These time leaks usually go unnoticed because they occur as short interruptions but, in reality, the sum of all of them has a huge impact throughout the day. How to discover what you waste your time The first step to combat time thieves is to become aware of them. Sometimes you know exactly what steals your timebut other times you need to analyze it thoroughly. A simple strategy is to write down for several days in what activities You use your time. This will allow you See patterns and detect habits They make you less efficient. Check the mail As soon as the notification appears on the icon, see a video on YouTube and realize that you have been 10 in a row or send a fast message to a friend and that, without realizing it becomes a 20 -minute conversation. All sum. Detecting and being aware of such behaviors is the first step to minimize them and avoid time leaks during Concentration periods. Another useful tool is the Automatic monitoring. In most cases, we are not even aware of the amount of time we use in tasks. Luckily, Technology does know. Currently, All operating systemsboth smartphones and computers, have a monitoring function of the use of applications. This function tells the time you spend daily (or weekly) in a certain application, which will help you discover if that time is reasonable Or, on the contrary, it is a time thief. The selfish side of time Discover that you spend several hours a day communicating with your classmates with Slack or Microsoft Teams, or seeing in a weekly graphic the time you have gathered are also ways to become aware of the time you dedicate. But much more important, an opportunity to adopt measures and reduce that time applying a “more selfish” profile. After all, Your time is a finite resource And it is necessary to learn to say no and impose limits. If you can’t avoid certain distractions by establishing the “monk mode” for deactivate all notifications And stimuli outside your task, at least limit your access during working hours. For example, you can adopt the strategy of “Ulysses contract“, establishing specific schedules to check emails and social networks, instead of doing so continuously. This helps avoid the habit of entering” just a moment “and end up wasting much longer than expected. On the other hand, nonlinear communication of slack or other professional messaging applications allow to adapt the rhythm of communication to your needs. Just let your colleagues know that You need concentration breaks in which you are going to concentrate on getting your job, and that you will answer as soon as you finish it, so that they do not expect an immediate response during those periods. Reduce meetings time can Look like a chimerabut being aware of the time you spend in video call applications such as Google Meet, Zoom or Teams can make you see the working time that takes you per day and if it is possible to reduce it. A first step is to cut in 10 minutes the usual 30 -minute stripes offered by default calendar applications. On average, attention remains for 23 minutesso if you manage to scratch those 10 minutes to each meeting, at the end of the day Time gain is very remarkable.

We do not need more productivity methods. We need to have a purpose again

by

“Your goal is not productivity, it is control. Do less things, with more intention, until everything you do is exactly what you want.” I walked the other day Scrolleando In x dodging memes from Studio Ghibli When I found this phrase from Justin Welsh. It is one of the many reflections that this entrepreneur throws as if it were a pedrazo in the water, but this concrete fell like in a pond and generated concentric waves of nods. Also mine. Productivity has become our particular Trojan horse. It seduces us by promising release when in fact installs a constant highway regime. Mea guilt. We have internalized that maximizing efficiency is a quality, without questioning a basic premise: efficient for what? Who? The personal optimization industry in general and productivity enthusiasts in particular operate on a mirage: We pursue systems and tools with the promise that they will make us more productivebut what we really want is autonomy and control over our time. Optimization has a somewhat early stop, but intentional restrictions have much more development. In other words, freedom arises from The discipline of saying “no”. To understand what is really important and digs trenches around you. Welsh proposes that we stop understanding productivity as an end and let’s assume it as a byproduct of personal autonomy. To return to the owners of our agenda and not slaves of the calendar as long as being wage earner allows us. “Productivity”, then, It is another word for “control.” Not the obsessive they sell in self -help books with a tie, but another deeper: to recover the ability to decide and not limit ourselves to measuring our success for our production capacity. That is why Welsh’s phrase is so powerful. It is not the nth technical To squeeze the daybut a reminder of what we already knew but that we usually forget: that life is not measured in completed tasks, but in decisions made consciously.

Lack of motivation is a problem for productivity. The trick to avoid it is simple according to science: start

Complete your goals and be more efficient with your time, both work and personal, may seem a complicated challenge, especially when procrastination is An incombustible threat that gets in your path. Use small tricks for Encourage your motivation which serves as gasoline for Maintain productivity You can make a big difference in how you face your daily tasks. These are four strategies that can help you maintain your motivation and prevent distractions from moving away from your goals. Completing tasks is already a motivation for your brain According to Manu KapurProfessor of Learning Sciences and Higher Education at the ETH of Zurich and author of ‘PRODUCTIVE FAILURE‘, “We like to close paths. We like to finish what we start. In fact, we have a strong affective impact by completing what we have worked in “, He countedProfessor a Fastcompany. This is corroborated by Zeigarnik Bluma Studies In 1927, which gave rise to the call Zeigarnik effect A condition of the brain that prioritizes the retention of that information you need to complete a certain task. On the other hand, Maria Ovsiankina complemented Zeigarnik’s investigations in 1928 demonstratingThe natural tendency of the brain to finish those tasks that you have already started, Even when it is not mandatory to do so. He does it for an unstoppable need to close a door that was kept open. Therefore, one of the Keys to maintain motivation To complete the tasks it is simply starting them. Take the first step. This is what Mel Robbins, speaker, creator of the podcast The Mel Robbins Podcast and author of the book ‘THE POWER OF THE 5 SECONDS: Be brave on a day to day and transform your life‘called in Your Ted talk“Activation energy”. According to Robbins, the greatest ally for procrastination is immobility. Once You dedicate two minutes to a taskthe brain itself finds tools to stay in it until you finish it. 1- Divide tasks One of the reasons why procrastine and the motivation to face tasks is lost is the overwhelming feeling that The task is too big. The solution could not be simpler: divide it into smaller and more manageable tasks. This approach uses what Psychology experts Teresa M. Amabile and Steve J. Kramer have called “effect of progress.” In their research they analyzed thousands of employee labor newspapers and found that progress, even incremental, in their tasks is the most important factor to maintain labor motivation. Every little achievement achieved release dopamine in the brainwhich activates a sense of reward, thus increasing the levels of motivation. Therefore, these completed tasks have a positive effect on emotional state and motivation, which increases productivity and commitment. Amabile and Kramer’s studies are the key that demonstrates the importance of dividing large goals into small steps to promote a constant sensation of progress. 2- Look back helps continue If the task is longer than expected and you see that your motivation begins to falter, Kapur recommends Change the work perspective That you have to do, on the path you have already traveled. “If you are very far from your goal of swimming 20 lengths, you can say: ‘I came to swim a long one. I have already made five more.’ This system is known as the gradient effect of the objective, and is a concept in psychology and motivation that describes how people tend to increase their effort and motivation as they come to achieve a goal. This phenomenon was initially studied by the Psychologist Clark L. Hull In 1932 and is widely applied to areas such as human behavior, marketing, productivity and personal goals. A 2006 study Made by Kivetz, Urmininsky, and Zheng for the field of neuromarketing, revealed how consumers accelerated their purchases to complete rewards programs. In addition, research in the workplace have shown that, when employees come to complete a project, Its approach and productivity tends to increase. Especially when you are at the beginning of the task, you can fall into the trap of looking towards an objective that obviously still remains far. That perspective acts as a brake for the first advice we gave you, so, to mitigate it, it is much more motivating to take a look at all the work you have already done and put it in value, in front of which it still remains to be done. 3- The fallacy of the sunk cost Have you ever continued seeing a mediocre series or reading a book just because you have already started? Is what is considered Sunk cost fallacywidely cognitive bias studied in psychology and behavioral economy. It refers to the human tendency to persist in a decision, activity or investment simply because we have already dedicated time, money or effort, even when your continuation It is not rational and leads to losses additional Now imagine that, after many years of study, dedication and efforts, you are in a job that is not what you expected and It bores you tremendously. The fallacy of the sunk cost can make you believe that, since you have dedicated so much effort and dedication, you will not change work area to something that, perhaps, motivates you much more. As his own name says, it is a fallacy. The “sunken cost” that represents the training or work done to reach your position is not something that is going to be lost, but adds points to your personal account as an experience, skills and knowledge that can be used in any other sector. “Each recognition is valued and the effort is celebrated. The student realizes that it does not start from scratch, he has relevant previous knowledge, but that they need to be activated, extracted and registered in his mental progress,” says Professor Kapur. 4- The final sprint Have you wondered how a marathon corridor, after having given everything for more than 42 km gets enough energy to tighten the rhythm in the last meters before the goal? It is the power of motivation that drives the brain to end … Read more

The toxic productivity that makes you believe that you never work enough

by

Productivity has been embedded In the current ideology As a scale for success: “If you are very productive, you will do well in the workplace.” However, this is a double -edged sword and runs the risk of falling into a silent trap called productivity dysmorphia: feel that your efforts are insufficient, that you never reach the desired level, despite work tirelessly. This sensation, increasingly common, can have serious consequences In your emotional and physical well -being. This phenomenon, exacerbated by the culture of hyperproductivity and constant comparison in social networks, leads to believe that it is always necessary to do more, drives To work tirelesslysacrificing free time and mental health in that search for satisfaction that never comes. What is productivity dysmorphia? Productivity dysmorphia is not a pathology officially recognized in diagnostic manuals, but part of a self -diagnosis of the writer and productivity journalist Anna Codrea -ado When analyzing your inability to Recognize your professional successes. The writer claimed that the idea arose when he read the memoirs of Otegha Uwagba, ‘We Need Talk About Money‘who described his relationship with his finances as monetary dysmorphia. Something similar happened to her, but with her productivity. “It is possible to feel that you do not have enough money and act accordingly, even when you have it,” Uwagba wrote in his book. Productivity dysmorphia is a distorted perception of our own productivity. Those who suffer from it feel that they never do enough, regardless of how much they work or achieve. This sense of insufficiency can lead to an excessive work cycle, physical and mental exhaustion which ends up deriving in states of chronic stress, depression, anxiety and low self -esteem. According The published by codrea -ado in Business Insiderproductivity dysmorphia may be caused by high levels of self -examination and perfectionism. As explained A group of experts At the International Conference on Wirtschaftsinformatik, social pressure and constant comparison in social networks, it can create a distortion of the real perception of our work, exaggerating the “imposter syndrome” until it becomes toxic productivity. Symptoms and triggers The Productivity dysmorphia symptoms They are varied and are closely related to self -esteem. On the one hand, the persistent feelings of guilt or anxiety not to be working They are common, which complicates to enjoy free time without feeling guilty for not being doing “something productive.” It is done more difficult to relax Or enjoy leisure activities that should be pleasant, since it always seems that there is something more important than attending. The constant comparison with others is another significant symptom. Exposure to idealized images on social networks, and poorly managed perfectionism can lead to “Burned worker syndrome” or Burnoutas the meta -analysis elaborated by scientists from the University of York St. John and Bath (United Kingdom). This constant state of activity without place for rest, inevitably leads to situations of physical and mental exhaustion that derives in Mental health problems more serious and exhaustion. Some of the main triggers of productivity dysmorphia is the work environment pressurepersonal expectations with unrealistic objectives and the influence of hyperproductivity culture are some of the most common. Strategies to combat productivity dysmorphia Fortunately, There are strategies to avoid falling into the trap of the dysmorphia of productivity, which largely coincide with the measures to Prevent burnout. One of the most effective is to establish clear limits between the Working hours and staffrespecting both one and the other. This implies dedicating time to social, family and leisure activities that allow to disconnect of labor objectives. If necessary, schedule that leisure time as if it were a meeting or any other labor obligation. In addition, it is important Recognize and celebrate your achievements professionals, however small. Recognize what has been able to assess the effort made and contribute to Strengthen self -esteem and feel more satisfied. According to the psychologist and leadership coach Jacinta M. Jiménez, “achievements or great experiences can improve our mood temporarily and make us feel great, but the effects can be quite fleeting.” Practice self -pity It is also crucial. Being kind to yourself and accepting that you can’t do everything allows you to face the situation without generating feeling of guilt for not being a superhero. Michigan University Psychologists They discovered thatthe way in which we talk to ourselves (self -dearly) when we experience unpleasant emotions or challenging situations can increase the ability to regulate emotions. It is also recommended to reduce exposure to toxic figures on social networks and unrealistic comparisons, in order to focus the focus on most realistic own goals and objectives. As we say, although productivity dysmorphia is not a medical term in itself, but a form of toxic productivity related to the real distortion of your effort, its effects can lead to Mental health problemsas depression or anxiety, which must be treated by a medical professional.

We have filled ourselves with digital superstitions. They are a fright for our productivity

by

There is something inherently human in our desire to find patterns where there are no, to attribute causality to mere coincidence. Centuries ago they danced to rained. We organize ours Notion To be more productive. Same superstition, different ritual. Cal Newport baptized him very well as “productive rain dances“: those activities that we do convinced that our results will improve, but in reality They are mere rituals without much real impact. We spend hours configuring time management applications (guilty), categorizing emails (innocent) or testing methods as if they were magical (guilty) potions. We dance around the bonfire of productivity, hoping that the gods of performance will pity us. Elí, Elí, Lama Sabactani. The interesting thing about these digital superstitions is that, unlike those of our ancestors, they are backed by elegant and metric interfaces that feed our illusion of progress. Three hours reorganizing cloud folders They do not produce real work although they generate a rewarding sense of order. Cleaning notifications constantly does not advance projects, but it gives us small doses of dopamine. And so we build belief systems. “I can only concentrate using this specific application.” “I need my 17 -step morning ritual or the day is lost.” “I have to answer each message at the moment or I am a terrible professional.” The problem of these rituals is not that they are useless (some have a certain value), but that We confuse the medium in order, the activity with the result. In Newport’s words, we are “focused on the activity of the moment instead of the results over time.” And while we execute these dances with devotion, the important projects, which really change our trajectory, remain intact in our slope lists. Pragmatic austerity is needed to break these digital superstitions. Start by asking if this activity produces a measurable result or if it only gives us the illusion of advancing. If we are confusing movement with progress. The most affective rituals are usually the least spectacular: Uninterrupted time blocks, Limitation of notifications and focus on the specific results we want to generate. Maybe it doesn’t hurt to stop dancing to rain and start building aqueducts.

Why an astronaut was obsessed with failure (and the lesson that leaves us to improve our productivity)

by

Most of us avoid thinking about failure. And when we do it is usually something inevitable, but ephemeral, because we flee from that thought. Chris Hadfield, the Canadian astronaut who commanded the International Space Station, did exactly the opposite throughout his career: Metustically visualized each possible failure. Because? To prevent it. What seems like a paradox (focusing on failure to achieve success) makes some sense. Precisely in its workplace, space, an error can mean death. There, NASA dedicates Much of the training time to practice the response against emergencies. It is not pessimism, but strategic preparation. It is a method applicable to everyday life and on the earth’s surface. When We visualize what can go wrong in a project or an important decisionwe are reducing anxiety and uncertainty. And improving our response capacity. It is like having a mental GPS that has already calculated alternative routes before encountering the first obstacle. But there is a trap: The key is not to become obsessed with the worst scenarios, but to turn them into contingency plans. Hadfield did not limit himself to imagining disasters, but developed specific responses for each one. He turned fear into something productive. The method can be reduced to three steps: Identify fissures. Develop a specific response for each one. You practice those answers until they become automatic. This method makes sense and works because Eliminates the surprise factor of failure. When you have already visualized a problem, and practiced the answer to it, our brain processes it as a similar situation, not as a crisis. Hadfield came to command the International Space Station preparing obsessively for everything that could go wrong. We, at a more mundane, literal and metaphorical level, we can achieve our goals by systematically proof all possible fissures. It is not something that guarantees success, but it is a way of thinking that it will make us more competent already proof of failures.

“Doing nothing” is a great technique to improve your productivity. Neuroscience is clear

by

A priori, staring at the infinity without doing anything can collide frontally with the concept of productivity. However, according to science, You are opening a new space in your brain in which to settle knowledge or combine abstract elements that become creative ideas. Against all prognosis, it seems that those small vacations that we give to the brain in the form of dreaming awake – what is commonly known as being embossed – allows to activate parts of the brain involved in the generation of ideas and learning new concepts. Therefore, it is advisable to allow, from time to time, Look at the screen and disconnect from the world Not doing anything. Conscious rest but without connection. Technically known as a quiet state of vigil, or popularly as dreaming of awake or being embobey, it is a relaxed state of environmental awareness that helps the mind to process complex thoughts while it is awake and at rest. Would be the equivalent of putting the Airplane mode on your mobilesince the mind is aware, but somehow the environment disappears and takes prominence more abstract and creative thoughts. Easier. Some people have a special ease to achieve that mental state, but others get it by performing simple and repetitive tasks such as scrubbing dishes, cleaning the car or laying the casting. Many great ideas arrive while you showers or while cooking. Bill Gates has assured In one of his rounds of questions with Reddit users who one of his favorite activities to enter that state of mental relaxation is to scrub the dishes. Science supports it. Do nothing potency memory. The science has triedthat stress harms long -term memory recovery, so a remedy to stop that loss is to make it The brain takes a respite From time to time. A study published in Nature He has reviewed the neuronal mice activity while they dream awake, revealing the activation of different neuronal patterns and activating the hippocampus, the area responsible for memory and learning. These findings indicate the importance of incorporating this disconnection time for the brain to consolidate knowledge and assimilate new data. By anecdotal that seems, it seems that this phase of “doing nothing” contributes to being Much more efficient and productive when you return to activity. Let crazy ideas flow. When he was barely 16, the Nobel Prize Albert Einstein had the inspiration to develop his theory of relativity that would forever change the concepts of modern physics. Although development was the result of years of work, Inspiration came to him while dreaming awake. The evidence. A study published in 2022 It indicates that the mental state that reaches the brain when it enters this state of conscious reverie is similar to the one it adopts during creative processes, so it is not surprising that the result is the generation of new and creative ideas as a result of the combination of the combination of Abstract elements and knowledge that we have learned. In that state, the brain becomes a drawer of cognitive sand for ideas and has fun playing with them and giving new approaches in a subconscious way. The scenario is similar to the one that occurs During the first phases of sleepwith the advantage that, when you wake up from that conscious “trance”, you will remember the idea and you can develop or discard it, something that is not always achieved with ideas during sleep, which are forgotten when you wake up. I’m not empanado, I’m solving problems. Another benefits of achieving a mental state of conscious reverie demonstrated by science is problem solving. Studies relate The increase in creativity in this state with the increase in the ability to solve problems. Researchers have discovered that people who take time to dream awake before facing the resolution of a problem demonstrate greater capacity and do so more creatively. To the Perform magnetic resonancesFrom their brains, they have found that several regions of their brains were very active, including the executive network related to the resolution of complicated problems.
