Do you like "Productivity Porn"? Many in Middle Age do
Submitted by Wesley on June 10, 2007 - 8:31pm.
There is never enough time to do the things we want, particularly in middle age where one's time can readily be squeezed by the generations above and below. (Of course there is always enough time to do the things we don't want to but that will be the subject of another post). Thus productivity can be important for one's level of happiness since it provides both the time to do those fun things as well as give us a sense of accomplishment. Not surprisingly an entire cottage industry has blossomed addressing productivity from every possible facet--including it's own endemic terminology. For some the quest for productivity becomes an end in itself separate from the free time that it creates. In fact, some people spend so much time on being productive and all of the latest productivity tools that they end up spending more time being productive than what could ever be saved. For this group, the term "productivity porn" applies.
If you are interested in productivity porn, or more seriously just being more productive, here are a few popular resources: LifeTwo will also post productivity tips (often garnered from these sites), particularly as they relate to dealing with our midlife time demands. As mentioned above, middle age is a time that everyone and everything wants a piece of you--including that little voice in your head that says "Hey, what about me?". Read Similar LifeTwo Stories:
