What you would choose when searching for the best productivity system?

4 replies
If you would want to increase your productivity and master time management, what you would choose between a solution that:

1. Teaches you how to build your own productivity system but naturally it will take a while and moderate work from your part. But it will adapt to your working style. (slow results, low risk)

2. Learn a "proven" productivity system already implemented (that works for someone) with the risk of not working out for you, because of your different working style. (fast results, high risk)

Any thoughts on that? Thank you

  • I think 2nd one is better. Risk is high but solution provider can easily tell you which one is bet for you as per your req. and budget.

  • As I learned from the great bob proctor (which learned it from earl nightingale), "time can't be managed" -you can only manage activities.

    Something I learned to do and that has helped me a lot in this area is make a list of things you need to do a night before and the next day, do them!

    I've been paying attention to myself and this is byfar the best thing I've done in this area. I am no longer wondering of what to do and have an intention as soon as I wake up.

    I've also freed up a lot of time for myself.

    This is the one i would go for. I'm lazy, so i want the solution that has already been proven to work for others, and that i can go and copy-and-clone myself with ease.

    I bet your prospects and customers feel the same way.

    "Proven"... by whom and for what?

    Why can't you use so called proven system and plug in your own adaptations?

    Can you give us examples?

    PS Anytime you try to put a square peg in a round hole, there will be problems, right?
