Efficiency or Harmony – What do you choose?
Highly effective slave
Do you remember the moment when online resources began to gradually rebuild for the new time and change the range of topics covered? As gradually sites began to publish more and more scientific articles, more research, techniques and methods how to improve the brain, how to become more productive, manage to work more, while remaining a fit runner with the latest gadgets at hand.
At first I thought, how cool! The world is changing! We are gradually moving from an ignorant post-Soviet backwater to a new high-tech modernity! But a little later everything began to take on a few different shades in my head.
At some point, articles on the Internet about increasing productivity in all areas of life began to elicit a seemingly strange reaction: they made me laugh. All this plastic aesthetic of a semi-networked world with super-efficient people began to seem to me a thin, icy and completely unkind “high-performance slave” program..
Highly effective egoist
Doing it faster, doing it more efficiently... Taking on more than you can accomplish, spreading out even more in multitasking, following directions, even if you realize that it is wrong, trying to do “whatever you need” – cooking, reading, walking and living.You?
Not to mention if you're a single young mom. The day is scheduled by the clock and life becomes like a classy biorobot program. Spontaneity? Slowness? No, no, that's all later. On the weekend! I'll do that this weekend. And this, and this, too. As a result, the weekend is also a to-do list: a list of articles, films, books, exhibitions, meetings with friends.
The desire to sleep bordering on the requirement to yourself in any case not to miss the workout, the desire to eat the “forbidden” product with the requirement to adhere to your diet.
It is also necessary to support the body, be sure to have time to meet with everyone who wants it, answer all letters, think about projects, raise a child and at the same time remain radiant and happy, posting colorful photos on Instagram. Of course, in this rhythm, the roof begins to move, or rather, a person simply enters into an endless neurosis and stress.
In addition, a person only aggravates this state of affairs and his pride, resorting to various methods to please himself. Instead, to finally accept yourself as you are and to work systematically and calmly on yourselfPeople enter into a series of addictions to triggers that only temporarily improve their well-being and strengthen the positions of the ego.
When a person loves himself and others not just because, but because. Think about it, there’s absolutely nothing good about feeling normal just because you’re doing something “good.”
Thus, you create a division of your activities into “good” and “bad”, “useful” and “useful”. Wouldn’t it be better to come to a more balanced state and just act from the heart? If you want to do something good for yourself, for others, or for the planet, just do it because you can't do it differently. Not to hang an invisible medal for your actions.
Highly effective... For who?
And the next wave of awareness of this state of affairs overtook the penalty when reading the book “Source of Energy”. This is a wonderful and useful book! It gives excellent advice: how to break the cycle of stress, how to manage more, how to get enough sleep, plan time, manage energy. All of this really works. Proper nutrition, sleep, exercise regimen, daily ... But these helpful tips may not be as clear-cut if you dig a little deeper and ask: Who is it all for?
Can anyone answer the question of why you need all this overcoming stress, when in fact you can live without it? Can anyone answer the question of why we need to set ourselves up to rest for a period of 6 hours to deliberately rebuild our body to work in a certain way, creating a program in our brain, calibrating it every day instead of listening to our body and listening to the inner perfection and wisdom that is in each of us?
Sleep as much as you feel you need to sleep? Some day 6 hours and some more? Is there something your body needs right now? To engage in that physical activity, which leads to a spontaneous feeling of its need?
Think about why you need such super-efficiency.If it is necessary to meet the conditions of the corporate race of the new time? After all, no one is saying that you probably do not need this crazy job at all, even with a high stake, but which takes away your life? Himself. Daniel Brown late writeBy the time he completed the work, he had realized“Achievements” are not the main thing and it is much more important to be in harmony with yourself..
We can certainly make our body work as the moment dictates, but it is much better to act according to our state. Productivity in my understanding is primarily about achieving goals, not working for the sake of work. And productivity is possible without harming health!
Efficiency or Harmony?
Think about it: Do you really need it? Being a top manager, working hard, staying alert and flexible, but for whom? For yourself? I don't think many of you work for yourself. Either way, you are working for someone. And so far, in most cases, this work is still the same part of the capitalist system that needs a cog, but a new model. A cool chrome cog that will last longer than usual.
Of course, it should be understood that I do not deny the benefits of physical activity and balanced nutrition. It’s amazing that people are moving to a healthier lifestyle. Especially if they do it for themselves, not because their surroundings have become, for example, abruptly running.
Think of this actually more aggressive than motivating “you’re only better” marketing strategy, making women exercise as if without it they would become some kind of inferior. Not everyone is suitable for running and other sports - here everyone should understand and choose the optimal physical activity and its regimen in accordance with personal characteristics.
You do not need to have a super-pumped brain and intelligence, a super-body and a dense schedule filled with a thousand things, if at the same time you cease to feel like a living person and cease to feel and act from the heart, and not from intellectual reasoning “what would be good and right to do”. Remember how many times your intuition prompted you to make the right decisions that you neglected in favor of a logical solution that turned out to be wrong!
You are not your brain. The brain is a tool, a great biocomputer, but if we discarded our sensory aspect, the aspect of our soul, our conscience, our intuition, and our sensory perception of the world, we would simply become biorobots.. Yes, in slim, healthy, efficient and full of energy, but completely dead people. People whose lives are devoid of spontaneity, sincerity, faith in miracles and the ability to enjoy life as children while remaining adults.
I am absolutely sure that each of us has something to give up in order to become calmer and happier people. Money, success, status, and career can bring you temporary happiness, but they are incapable of making you truly happy and loving beings who act from their own center, listening to themselves and bringing true goodness and light, neglecting fashion, trends, and imposed ideas. You may not be perfect, but you are real. Kind, alive and sincere.
Health and happiness lie far beyond your body and mind. Stop raping yourself. Learn new things, study your mind and body, explore the world around you, but most importantly, listen to yourself. What you have inside you has infinite wisdom and love.Do not neglect this true source in favor of scientific research or the latest developments. Be careful with any information, no matter how useful it may seem at first glance. Find the courage to be yourself!

SUMMARY
- When confronted with any kind of information, check whether it is really aimed at your actual development or at strengthening the leading position of your ego.
- When you see “examples” online or in real life, relate them to your life: do you really need to repeat what others are doing or should you listen to yourself and take some advice to follow your own path, understanding what is right for you and what is not?
- Learn to feel what the thoughts that you find in all sources are really aimed at: whether they serve you and society first, are they aimed at real improvement of the well-being of individuals and of all mankind, or are just another trick of companies and the capitalist system only in a more subtle way.
- Realizing that you are completely confused and are not able to understand your problems on your own, do not be afraid to contact a specialist;
- Listen to your heart, love and allow yourself to be a guide to good.
P.S. And remember, just by changing your consciousness – together we change the world!
