Pattern of Renewal

In June 2012, my colleague, Mark Murphy, and I wrote a 5-week series introducing our readers to our newest content, The 5 Choices to Extraordinary Productivity.  You can follow this link to read all 5 archived posts.

Today, Mark is going to give you a little more insight to Choice 5, Fuel Your Fire, Don’t Burn Out.  If you are planning to attend Dallas ASTD’s 2012 Southwest Learning Summit on August 14th, consider joining us for Mark’s breakout session on Productivity.  He is going to expand on this topic in more depth.

The Premise: We all have the potential to do extraordinary things.

The Paradox:  In today’s world it’s both easier and harder than ever to achieve extraordinary productivity.

The very same technology that makes us more productive can also destroy our productivity.  There are three main reasons.

1)      The sheer number of decisions we have to make on a daily basis.

2)      Our attention is under attack.  We get interrupted every few seconds.

3)      We live in a perpetual crises of energy.  

The Promise: There are 5 choices that, when consistently made, ensure that you will achieve extraordinary productivity in your work and your life.

Choice 5 - Fuel Your Fire, Don’t Burn Out, addresses that last of the three reasons for lost productivity. 


What do people with this paradigm do differently?  They eat, sleep , relax, and connect with other people.   Of course we all do these things, but people with this paradigm do them differently. 

Watch the following video and see if you can relate?
