From productivity porn to mindful productivity

Mindful productivity is a sustainable way to work and think. It’s not a magic bullet: it’s being consciously present in what you’re doing, while you’re doing it, in conjunction with managing your mental and emotional states.

The average person will spend 90,000 hours at work over their lifetime. To put this figure into perspective, that’s about ten years of back-to-back work. We rightfully try to make the most of the time we spend at work. However, our desire to be more productive can turn into a harmful addiction to productivity content: a phenomenon known as productivity porn.
