Multiply your productivity

Have you ever had a feeling that you could be more productive. Sometimes people do their best and again are not as productive as they could. Even taking up a lot of great opportunities they still could not reach great success. At the end they can't see neither a big progress, nor a sufficient revenue. Where the key for that is? In fact, if you look up the picture above maybe you will find the reason for that low productivity. Well it is just in not finishing what have started. The same as the buildings above. I bet that the right building is priced a hundred times more than the left, or maybe a thousand times! It's the same in life - if you finish your tasks, goals, crafts or whatever you take up - you will have hundres of times greater benefit.

Let's take for an example one my fellow. He always has had the greatest ideas in the world, however he still can not show off with any results. He've started things like "Internet Service Providing", "Web sites building", "Designing and Distributing Video Security Systems" and he is dealing with "Voice over IP Telephony" now. All of these are concurent on the market and can bring him a great revenue. However the fellow I'm talking about could not show any results. I know why. He never finishes anything. I've shared this my view with him lots of times and hope he will come out with a finished product soon. The problem is that some people always go after the last excitement for the day and left what whey've taken yesterday in the past.

In fact it's a very simple concept, which is neglected lots of times. If you don't finish fully what've been taken up - you lose lots of money, time and value in general. I can guarantee that 9/10 finished work is a hundred times less that a 10/10 (fully) finished. Lets take for an example the sphere of "Internet Service Providing" - imagine that a client wants from you to supply him with internet. OK, you buy cable, you go to the address, next you install the cable. At the end you go to the client and plug the cable for internet into his computer, however your telephone rings and left the client. Your sweat client has everything but the configurations of the computer - he just doesn't get any service (but he has almost everyting). Well it's fairly simple example but it illustrates the results of not finishing your work. It's the same with anything else, even if not so visible sometimes.

Yes it's really simple to multiply your productivity, revenue or even your leisure time. Just follow my advice and finish everything you take up to the real end.

You should not do that!

May be you've heard that words from your mom. Even more, everyday you hear something like that: "You should not smoke cigarettes; You should not drink alcohol; You should not go there". Well there're hundreds of other unhealthy things like eating MacDonalds or even going to the center of your capital and breathing the "smogish" air.

Well, if you look around, you will find thousands of delicious things. Yes, there are a lot of people who are considering all that unhealthy stops. Imagine what could be in the head of such people - a huge mess of stops: "I should not eat that; It is not good to drink that vodka with my friends :); I can not go in there - there're so many smokers". How do you think, does the productivity of such a person is less or more?

Now, I'll try to explain how it could be without all that negative thinking and stops in your mind. Try the positive way. "I want to eat healthy food", then buy a few oranges :). "This hamburger looks delicious" - get one and eat it up. The key is to do whatever is on your heart if that thing brings you happiness :). If you want to breathe clean air - well go to a mountain for the weekend but don't restrict yourself going to the dirty center of the city. If you achieve to forget all restrictions your mind will be free and more productive and you will enjoy far more your time.

At the end I will finish with a quote of Josh Billings:

There's lots of people who spend so much time watching their health, they haven't got time to enjoy it.

MySpace.com : The Jungle Makes Money

Recently I read a lot about MySpace. I even visited that jungle. Yeah, it's the most famous jungle with its users climbing to reach 100 million in the near future. If you read results from a related survey you can find that most of the teenagers use that jungle to play and communicate with friends. May be, some of you are wondering why I call it a jungle. Well it won't be difficult for anyone to randomly browse 5 public profiles and see that at least one of them is so so ugly, but who cares? It's popular! Some people even claim that myspace is even more popular than Madonna and Beatles. Do you think so?

MySpace is even in the top 5 of the most poor sites in some competitions. In fact, what do you think means to be thought for totally bad and at the same time to have millions of users. Well in my view, it's just good politics. There are so many "poor pages", that is because every one can easily make his page as his bedroom and invite there whoever he wants. Even without worrying how big are his friends` heads (most social web pages limit avatars/pics to be as big as 100x100 or smaller).

Well it looks like giving all the freedom to your clients/users is a great business strategy. If you browse the web you will find a lot of people talking against myspace. Yes, myspace could be called a jungle, however it's the jungle where every one is free. And as a result making millions of dollars. Are you an entrepreneur or just a manager of a service ? If yes - take into account the freedom of your clients.
