Cause and Effect of Productivity on Personal Finance

As I was working on an article today the opening paragraph compelled me to do more research which led to a fun discovery that I wanted to share with you.

 

My article opens with

 

Are you aware that studies show multi-tasking drops your efficiency by 44%? When I came across this statistic I stopped in my tracks. I am a multi-tasker…big-time. I immediately internalized this data and asked myself “can I really afford to have my efficiency affected by 44%?” The answer is a big NO! Can you?

 

Well in my search for statistics on time managment I came across this delightful read by Jeffery Strain on www.savingadvice.com.

 

 

He opens with “When it comes to personal finances, most people concentrate on saving and investing money. This can be a problem because issues that may not first appear to have much to do with personal finances can often have a dramatic affect on them. Productivity is just one of these.”

 

He goes on to share 44 ways to improve your productivity that are fun, practical and easy to implement. Read the 44 Ways here. In light of the fact so many are trying to do more with less I thought this might be of value to you.
