“I am busy”- is the phrase which is commonly heard but not meant always. I want to dedicate this blog to all the college students who want something else apart from their daily work. Busy stands for you being stuck at something and cannot do anything else at the present time but have you really thought about the real meaning?
Whenever a person says she/he is busy or use the phrase “I am busy” that phrase is keeping you away from a lot of opportunities in this world. World is full of opportunities but it matters how you take it. Everybody gets equal opportunities but it depends on us whether we take advantage of those or let them go. It’s true that everybody has their own priorities which makes them busy but at least we can discuss some ways to figure out how we can take out some time and do something else and take advantage of opportunities.
1. Time management
This is the first topic which everyone is taught in their life from school till their 40s if their work is not done correctly on time. Always when you wake up in the morning just make a list of work that has to be done on that day and are on top priority and add them to your to-do list which will automatically remind you to do your work and then you see yourself how your life gets free from last moment scheduled works.
2. Stop talking about being busy
Once you talk about being busy this phrase itself draws your mindset to the thought that you cannot accept any other work and have other works scheduled which keep you away from all the opportunities which you can get from the world. One should develop positive and open attitude the more positivity you have the more success you get it’s directly proportional.
3. Take a break
A break is as much important as much as your work. If you simply increase the graph of your work and contribute nothing to your break section, then you are slowing down the rate of your growth and that’s a fact. Take adequate amount of break and work efficiently then simply you will be happy with your work results. Do the work you love in your free time, take a drive, do gardening, read some books, take your partner out, spend some time with your family, anything but just take a break from usual work.
4. Know your strengths and weaknesses
Knowing your strengths and weakness will simply help you to know what work you can do and how much time you will need for that. It will simply help you in deciding how much time you would need for that work and can easily design your time table which helps you in avoiding being busy and gaining lot of other opportunities in life.
5. Take proper rest
With proper work you need proper rest. You can't sleep late around 2:30 am or 3:00 am and wake up early at 6:00 am or 6:30 am and still expect good work results you will not have full energy. That might work for some days and for some people some weeks but when you see in long term (which of course you should) will definitely affect your efficiency. You might read several facts about sleep that 6 hours are enough or you should sleep in the multiple of 90 minutes but don’t forget that not every finger is same so why to compare your body with other, just know your body yourself and work accordingly.
Above said points are not enough on how to avoid being busy and increase our productivity and you all must be knowing these points already but, none of us actually imply these things in our life. It is important to adapt them in our day to day life and them am sure our productivity would increase and we'll be able to grab more and more opportunities. I hope after reading this you all will apply these simple points in your life and I hope you all are able to make a difference and grow more and achieve more. Success is not what you learn here but success is when you adapt these things. All the best! Enjoy life!
Smile!
