DEVELOPING A SENSE OF URGENCY - Episode 35

I talked about A SENSE OF URGENCY last season in my episode entitled DRIVE, but for me, it’s really one of the cornerstones of productivity itself. John Kotter’s quote there says it very well. This is not about panic, anxiety or fear (although you may have to fight them off a wee bit along the way) it’s about killing complacency and replacing it with something else. An "inner energy" that drives your forward, to complete on your plans, to hit deadlines and to achieve great things. For a full transcript of this episode please go to the official website https://www.filmproproductivity.com/ Quotes:“A higher rate of urgency does not imply ever-present panic, anxiety, or fear. It means a state in which COMPLACENCY is virtually absent.” - Professor of Leadership at the Harvard Business School, John P. Kotter“If your bias for action is to put it off till tomorrow then you need to start reprogramming yourself and get rid of that delaying crutch. Change up your tempo to something a bit more lively, and as I’ve warned many times before - don’t wait for the planets to get into just the right alignment before you move – if you do that, THE RIGHT TIME will slip through your fingertips. BUILD MOMENTUM – remember it’s much easier to keep a body in motion than it is to initiate that motion.” - BRYAN TRACY“Everyone should have a sense of urgency – it is getting a lot done in a short period of time in a calm, confident manner.”  - Bob Proctor You can find out more about the show on these links.OFFICIAL WEBSITE: https://www.filmproproductivity.com/TWITTER: @filmproprodpodFACEBOOK: @filmproproductivityCONTACT: https://www.filmproproductivity.com/contact Sources:https://bizfluent.com/facts-5879843-sense-urgency-definition.htm Music: Adventures by A Himitsu https://www.soundcloud.com/a-himitsuCreative Commons — Attribution 3.0 Unported— CC BY 3.0 http://creativecommons.org/licenses/b...
