One of my colleagues used to be
super busy in the office
it was not work that kept him occupied.
.
.
He was always peeking at his ICICI Direct account.
From the time the stock market opened till
the last trade, he will be monitoring,
buying and selling stocks.
He will be careful if no one was watching him.
It was 2005.
I saw another phenomenon around 15 years
down the line in late 2020.
Many people in the workplace were now
stuck to their smartphones
watching TikTok and Instagram Reels.
They were careful if no one was watching them.
A study by the New York Times found that
the average employee is productive for
only three hours a day.
The point is simple:
Productivity doesn’t depend on:
– hours you spend in the office
– hours you spend in front of your laptop
– hours you fill in the timesheet
It depends on your ability to focus at work.
It is not easy.
Even if you are not glued to your screens,
you get pulled into meetings or get ad-hoc work.
Staying focused and disciplined is now a skill.
Today, the difference between an
average performer and a top-rated performer
is not skills,
but their ability to stay focused.
