Living a Productive Life



Living a Productive Life

Author Mary Jaksch recently emailed participants at a retreat as to the one thing they wanted from life.  She has put all seventy-one responses in an on-line article and you can read the entire article by clicking  What Do People Want

Today, we will focus on the responses given for living a productive life.

Here are their responses:
1. To master time-management
2. To develop self-discipline
3. To create good habits
4. To experience a paradigm shift that helps
    me view challenges differently, especially discipline and 
    motivation
5. To learn how to be in the zone
6. To be more productive and focused



Six words jump out at us from this list.
   Self-discipline
      Good habits
         Learn
            Master
               Focused
                  Motivation

Each key word on this list begins as an inside job, including “motivation”. 

We find it within ourselves to make the changes we desire in any area of life. 

Searching for what you want is a good thing.
Identifying what you want is even better.
Having the guts to make the necessary changes is the best step we can take in accomplishing these changes. 

May you and I do the work in order to experience the changes we seek.
