An effective way to increase productivity is setting measurable and attainable goals, which will keep you on the path toward achievement while curbing procrastination and providing you with a clear picture of where you stand on your journey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Studies have demonstrated that individuals with higher self-efficacy tend to engage in goal setting activities and experience success more quickly, persist through challenges and barriers more easily and persist through difficult circumstances more firmly than those without such high self-efficacy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Goal setting should take into account core values such as integrity, responsibility, fairness and hope in order to be as effective as possible. Furthermore, creating a roadmap towards your desired results through breaking larger achievements into smaller steps is also vitally important.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5. Meditation<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Meditation is a form of contemplation in which you focus your attention on something like breathing, an image or mantra (a repeated word or phrase), to relax both mind and body.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Studies have demonstrated the many benefits of meditation to your memory, concentration and overall mental wellbeing. Unfortunately there are no guaranteed results and it takes time to build a practice into your daily routine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When your attention wanders, as it often does, simply bring it back to breathing. Keep in mind that success in meditation is measured not by how long one can sit still but whether greed, hatred, ill will and ignorance decrease – then you are succeeding! Group meditation provides support while building discipline – however you can practice alone too – just find a comfortable spot.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
