Being more productive is something everyone wants to achieve. It can be difficult to sustain your productivity especially if you attempt to use an approach that is not in alignment with how you naturally execute.
One of the hidden reasons you don’t get your book written or can’t seem to consistently write your blogs can be related to your natural wiring. The task of writing is a heads-down, internal-thinking activity. Not everyone generates ideas that way.
If you are not naturally wired to sit and write, then you may procrastinate writing. For example, if you are wired with a high sense of urgency and naturally create ideas by talking them through then you will procrastinate writing that blog or book.
Innately, you believe it will take too long so you put it off. You might also avoid it since writing is opposite of how you create ideas. The act of writing may not be fast enough or verbal enough for you and your natural wiring.
My most productive time is spent on the treadmill. Since I have a high sense of urgency and talk through my ideas, I can talk my blog in minutes. Otherwise, it takes me much longer if I were to sit and think through the ideas.
Of course, writing can be tricky on a treadmill. So, I use a built-in productivity solution. You likely have the tool at your fingertips, too!
