  How to increase productivity    Productivity and efficiency go hand in hand, and there is something in a productive day that gives you a sense of peace and satisfaction. It is like you unleash your finest version of yourself in the greatest possible way, or at least that is how I feel it. You are mistaken, if you think I am one of the most productive people you have ever met, in fact, there were some days in my life when I just let the days pass by without doing anything, and there were some days when the day entirely went by plan. These days, everyone's life has become busier and busier, filled with so much obligation, sometimes we forget how it looks like that a day goes as we want it to go. Being productive and efficient is becoming hard, and some of us even beat ourselves up and think we are not able to do what we have in mind for ourselves.

  How to reduce resistance to change in an organization Resistance to change is an opposing force that carries out by employees in an organization that is going through a restructuring process or implementing a change or a new procedure. The resistance can complicate the process of the change or create a longer process.
