Increasing Capacity for Joyful Productivity
I had a meeting yesterday morning with my guides about what's next and want to share a bit about productivity and capacity with you.
Context: I have a lot of projects. So much to do. They are things I feel good about and have little to no resistance at this point about them. And yet I only get so much done in a day.
In one training I did a few years back, someone mentioned that the normal amount time that humans can function productively is 4 hours a day. I did a quick google search right now to check my memory and found one study claiming it's only 3 hours a day!
I think we all have days where we are super productive, and then a low version, and then an average. True for you?
Would you like to expand your range?
On a good day I can be productive for about 12 hours. Those days are rare and usually occur after a long period of planning and incubation with the guides when it's time to implement. I can run stretches of days like this with a kind of tailwind where everything is easy and even fun. Those days are some of my all time favorite-feeling days. I truly love to work. On an average day, maybe 4-9 hours a day?
But yesterday morning I had to have a talk with my guides because I'm sitting here with armloads, bucketloads of creative projects all that I truly would love to complete, and yet my brain shuts down after a time and I need to rest. It's a pandemic, I'm not out doing social things and have plenty of time.
The short version is --they said I need to do more work on evolving my brain and mind. That is the key to unlocking more capacity for joyful focus and productivity. I have been obsessed with developing my mental gridwork and healing my brain. I have been applying my focus of consciousness to this task for a very long time, and what they told me is as I continue to do this, I will expand my easeful work capacity. At least for me it's not about affirmations or mindset or resistance or any of that. It's about the actual capacity of the human mind.
