Think about all the productivity and organization systems you’ve tried.
Remember how you dove into ‘Getting Things Done’ with such enthusiasm? Your inbox was so full as to constitute a fire hazard within weeks, wasn’t it?
Or what about that copy of ‘Do It Tomorrow’? Didn’t you intend to read it the next day, and the next, and the next? And now it’s sitting at the bottom of a pile of books next to your desk, still unread.
And let’s not forget about our friend, the Pomodoro Timer, and its unfortunate encounter with an open window – three stories up.
If you’ve spent your life struggling to adhere to other people’s organization and productivity strategies, you’ll want to keep reading.
Your failures aren’t indicative of some inner flaw – they’re simply the result of a huge mismatch between what the productivity gurus think you need and the reality you’re actually facing.
When it comes to productivity and organization, the important distinction is not your Meyers-Briggs Type or your Enneagram Number, but rather how you relate to the world.
- Are you an analytic thinker, someone who excels at games of logic and is motivated by competition and goals?
- Are you a big picture thinker, someone who can spend hours wrestling with a problem or project – to the exclusion of even eating and sleeping?
- Or are you more people oriented, the person who’s most concerned with those around you and whether they’re happy and healthy?
If you answered yes to one of the above, then you’re one of the 75% of people who struggle with 99% of the productivity systems on the market today.
Because the productivity systems on the market today were created by a fourth type of person, one who naturally excels at creating systems, and one who approaches the world through the lens of their routines.
But you don’t want one of their strategies. You want a productivity strategy that works for you.
