Myth of productivity / Effort / Deadlines / Creativity

Loved the critical things in this write-up. Things align with my views I have reposted here

  • Doing “something” is not necessarily better than doing nothing.
  • The pressure of deliverables kills creativity and time
  • Lead someone on a project and be led by someone on some other projects. 
  • If there is one person who always dominates and talks over you, I actively avoid that person
  • Hours do not correlate with productivity, Meaningless calls/status reports are only energy drainers
  • Set your boundaries and make them clear to everyone. Takes breaks and focus on your Life
  • Aspire to Maintain the highest standard in everything, Better presentations, crisp answers, and one-liner replies
  • Talk slowly and clearly. Use precise words
  • Take some challenging work/teaching, It will help you get better at crisp concepts
  • Becoming a better prester can only be done by trying out / practicing larger audiences / accepting bad criticism
  • Accept you are not special, people can hate you for no-reason
  • Do something mindless to detach
  • Stop the bad habit of checking for notifications after hours.
  • Collect ideas, Read more relevant content, Revise, Relook at options, Read - Pause - Reflect for solutions
Good reads - Link

Keep Walking!!!
