Dear Test, there are two types of productivity. The first is “worldly productivity.”
This is the building of things.
It could be the creating of a company.
The making of your art.
The construction of your days.
The realizing of your dreams.
“Worldly productivity” is about getting (big) things done. It’s important to a human life as it improves your lot, adds value to others and provides a sense of meaning, through your progress. People are happy when they make progress.
Yet, there is a second, quieter form of productivity that is less about scale—and more about soul. I call this “Spiritual Productivity.”
There are times in many human lives where one feels the call to go within.
The urge to revisit and rewire their interior.
To slow down and read more.
To walk and meditate and pray.
To ask The Big Questions.
To reflect on why they are running.
To consider who they are becoming.
To imagine how they will be remembered.
When their life has ended.
In such seasons, the ego says “you’re wasting your time. You should be producing. Everyone is getting ahead of you.”
Yet isn’t upgrading your inner life, refining your philosophy and optimizing your integrity during a season of stillness and rich personal growth the very thing that later leads to true leadership, mastery and outer winning?
No point in climbing a mountain only to realize once it’s too late that you’ve climbed the wrong one.
Yes Test, “Spiritual Productivity” is just as important and, just maybe, far more important than the worldly type.
I love both and encourage you to find the balance between the two, that your wisest self senses is right for you.
What if your greatest work is the work no one ever gets to see?
I hope today’s message has brought you value. If you’re in the mood for some great learning and are really ready to make this year your best one in a long time, you should know that I’ve created a valuable new online program called The Amazing Day Blueprint.
It’s not a course for beginners and isn’t the content that you hear being talked about everywhere. Instead, it’s a science-based, insight-rich program for people who want to experience consistently happy and productive days. And as you know, the way you live your days is the way you’ll handcraft your life.
I recommend you test out the program now (it comes with a full guarantee so you have no risk) and start experiencing the information and tools today. Here are all the details for full access.
Love and respect,
Robin
