do not tag or label people or situations!

I happen to influenced by productivity systems a lot and making one working for you itself is a still work in progress/BIG project.

always thinking about more on the productivity system than actually making one work for you.

Productivity systems like GTD, Time blocking, PARA, Time batching, POMODORO etc are in my continuous focus and still figuring on what is the most suitable options.

With all this systems in mind and apps for each one on task management, note-taking, project management, knowledge management and above all professional tools for carrying out your daily work life, Microsoft.

this constant flow of information and thoughts has made me more of a human productivity centric mad house and started using tags, labels on the people and situation around me

Tags like #Good person #Notsogoodperson #Highlysuccessful #Notsosuccessful

this has made me realise an extremely important and useful lesson:

keep yourself open, welcome change with open arm and MIND!

systems are there to support us, to help us in performing our act well. But systems itself is not life, just a part of your bigger self expression.

Prepare a good, solid system and work on yourself regularly BUT don’t tag people or situations. People around us may look like crazy guys but still they are full functional living life with emotions.

Once we started accepting not only the people around but also ourselves as an Individual full of life and uncertainty. We allow us to make mistakes and learn from the same and grow.

Let us drop all the tags and labels AND ACCEPT us all with openness !!

Be PRODUCTIVE, keep working on yourself!
