Sometimes flow is far from available in my life. You are running around like crazy or just without the right amount of energy to get things done. The funny part is that although this has happened to me for the last week my GTD system is still in place. I have even added next actions and projects.
In fact, all my lists are in place, I just need to review them and start doing. Even though the lists don’t become shorter I still have a clear head. So, what’s the thing here?
Being productive isn’t primarily about the amount of stuff you can handle. It is about being clear about your focus and values. Being seemingly unproductive for over a week isn’t that bad at all. I have spent a lot of time thinking about bigger pictures, about some decisions I had to make and spent time with my family.
I didn’t do a lot of Next Actions and I didn’t finish one single project. But now I can tick off one, Maintain blog / write blog item about unproductive week.
