The culture of hustling is that you can only succeed if you are regularly exerting yourself to capacity to achieve business productivity. Nearly half of the workforce brags about belonging to this culture. It is an honor to prioritize working hard over everything. This is starting to change with some people in Silicon Valley.

Jack Dorsey, CEO of Twitter, is promoting self-care and mindfulness. He is advocating for walking, ensuring you are well-rested, and meditation. Successful startups require attention and work, but there must be a balance to ensure that both mental and physical health are taken care of. Turn Busy into ProductiveThere must be a mindset change to avoid burnout and achieve business productivity instead of constantly switching from one thing to another. Lowered productivity does not automatically come with working at a slower pace that is easier to sustain. Working mindfully produces higher quantity work and progresses you toward your goals more effectively.Rested Means Increased ProductivityBusiness productivity increases when you are not anxious, stressed or exhausted. Here are some suggestions to assist in becoming more productive.

Prioritize: Business productivity comes from doing work that matters. Clearing notifications and responding to emails that aren’t work-related are not productive activities. While these things can’t be avoided, they can be moved to a time when you are not working toward goals.

Hold Yourself Accountable: Business productivity increases when you pay attention to your physical and mental needs. Burnout begins when you ignore the signs and fail to respond to them.

Delegate and say no: Focus on the work that makes the biggest impact and that you are most proficient in. Delegate the things that others can do and learn when to say no.

Work More Effectively: Setting a schedule to focus on specific things can increase business productivity.

Make sure to take time for yourself and develop other interests that are not associated with work. It is okay to ask for help when you are overwhelmed or have a problem you cannot solve alone. Boundaries are important to your peace of mind and business productivity.
