Our ability to work productively is linked with our well-being

Productivity is a continuous debate. How much should you work? How smart should you work? Is your work fulfilling for you? Is your work creating a positive impact? Are you ignoring your health to be more productive?

From procrastination to workaholism, you have to decide where you want to see yourself. Are you going to live the life of your dreams, or ignore living your life to reach your dreams?

Scientists and scholars, financed by the corporate sector, are trying to figure out new ways to increase the productivity of employees. The health and happiness of employees is directly related to their productivity.

Science is busting the myths about productivity at work. Multitasking and task-switching is not the same thing. Taking a break and prolonging your procrastinating behavior is not the same thing. Ron Friedman, a physiologist, believes that the most productive time is the first three hours of the day.

These stories, selected by curators, can help you find a bit more about your work and productivity:

Good Hard Work vs. Bad Hard Work

These days everybody seems to be working hard or trying hard to work. If you don’t feel forced to work every day, or don’t feel overly glad to use work as a form of escapism, you might be one of the lucky few who are rightly balancing work and life.

Purpose in Life: To Help You in Work

Many people live their lives without ever knowing what they want to do; they just do it. Others, like you and me, keep finding it. Purpose is similar to the concept of truth: it keeps changing its meaning from person to person, generation to generation.

It was curated and distributed in ‘writing’. Story templating means that you pick any story or article and use it as a template. It must be written by someone you really like. Somebody you would want to emulate.

You don’t buy every book when you go to a book store. You read the book reviews for guidance. The curation is a review of your written piece — by Medium. What Medium wants and what you can do about it — an explanation of the requirements for successful curation.
