Many books and articles have been written on personal productivity in the workplace and business. One book that offers a unique perspective on time wasters and productivity is The 4 Hour Workweek by author Tim Ferriss. Although this is not a Christian book, I believe many of the principles that Tim embraces are valid and useful ones to increase productivity.
If left unchecked and unscheduled, these time wasters can drain valuable productive time:
- Phone calls
- Web surfing
- Personal business
- Texting; instant messaging.
- Web 2.0 - social networking
- Unscheduled meetings
- Unfocused meetings
- Unproductive, unnecessary reading
- Multi-tasking
- Endless to-do lists
- TV and other media
- Constant organizing and reorganizing
- Lack of energy
- Lack of focus
- Sickness
- Lack of sleep
- Stress
