10 Habits of The World’s Most Productive People

 Everyone has had the experience of not having enough hours in the day to accomplish everything you need to. Given the busy lives that we all lead, staying organized and staying productive can be a challenge. It is easy to get caught up on the wrong path and waste valuable time you need to get things done. Take some advice from ten of the world’s most productive people about staying on task and staying productive.

1. No Email in the Morning

Author of The 4-Hour Workweek Tim Ferriss has a brilliant strategy for handling the ubiquitous time-sink that is email. He spends the first few hours of the day ignoring it. According to Ferriss:

2. Create a System for Certain Tasks

When you have something you work on everyday it is best to create a system to handle it efficiently and without getting overwhelmed. Tony Hsieh, CEO of Zappos.com has come up with a strategy for staying on top of emails that he calls “Yesterbox.” Each morning when he boots up his computer he only answers emails he received the day before. As he explains on yesterbox.com:

3. Limit Decision Fatigue

Each time you have to make a decision you use up a little bit of your limited supply of mental energy. To make the most of your cognitive reserves eliminate unnecessary decisions and simplify others. Take an example from productivity gurus like Steve Jobs, Barack Obama, and Albert Einstein and wear the same outfit every day. By not spending time and energy on picking out clothes, you have more time and energy to devote to more worth-while things.

4. Handle Things Once

When swift action or decision-making is required, use Harvard Business Professor Robert Pozen’s OHIO strategy and Only Handle It Once. If you get an important email that requires your attention, reply immediately and move on to the next task. Keep your day moving and keep easily finished tasks off your to- do list.

5. Prioritize Tasks

Sometimes the best strategies for staying productive are the most obvious. Facebook founder and CEO Mark Zuckerberg stresses the importance of getting easy tasks out of the way in rapid-fire succession:

6. Take Vacations

In a world where everyone is always fighting to get ahead it might seem counter-intuitive to go on vacation, but more and more companies are adopting policies that make time away from the office mandatory. Taking some time to clear your head and relax can do wonders for your productivity when you return. Follow Yahoo CEO Marissa Mayer’s philosophy:

7. Sleep

Similar to taking regular vacations, getting a good night’s sleep will recharge your brain and improve your ability to stay on task. Huffington Post founder Arianna Huffington swears by the strategy of stepping away from a perpetually busy schedule to get the necessary amount of rest (at least 7 hours a night). Not only are you more able to make decisions when you’re rested, those decisions tend to be of better quality and you are less likely to feel overwhelmed by them.

8. Stay Fit

Take a page from Virgin CEO Richard Branson’s playbook and treat working out like it is part of your job. Many productive people (and scientists alike) find that engaging in at least 20 minutes of moderate intense exercise each day keeps their brains working at a high level and their energy levels high to match.

9. Start Early

You may not love the idea of waking up at the crack of dawn but a surprising number of the world’s most productive people love to get a head start on their day by starting early. Starbucks CEO Howard Schultz takes advantage of working at a company built on foundations of caffeine:

10. Keep a Routine

Let’s end with a tip from one of the busiest and most powerful men in the world, US president Barack Obama. The secret that keeps him from getting overwhelmed when the going gets tough is to keep to a strict schedule. In addition to only ever wearing blue or gray suits, the leader of the free world insists on his morning workout, dinner with his daughters, and having a late night block of time devoted to reading and preparing for the next day’s work. By limiting uncertainty, he is able to stay maximally productive.

Things That Really Successful People Have in Common

 Who doesn’t want success in life? But only a few can
manage to be successful. What is the secret of being
successful in life? Well, go through the following eight
things that really successful people do.

 01. Making materialism
irrelevant
Many of us focus only on
the material needs. They
concentrate mainly of the
benefits of success like
suing fancy cars, having
magnificent houses. It’s
true that people like to lead
luxurious life. That’s not a
problem. But if you dream
for the luxury instead of
making proper plans to be
successful, you are not in
the right track. At first, set
your goals and work properly. Definitely you will enjoy
the benefits of success at the right time.
02. Enhancing your knowledge
To be successful in life requires vast knowledge. So, if
you want to be successful, gather as much knowledge
as you can. Work hard, communicate with the right
people and enhance your knowledge. The more
knowledge you have, the more likely you are to grab all
the opportunities before you.
03. Managing relationships
All are attracted to successful people. So, successful
persons have to deal with a variety of people.
Successful persons know how much time to spend
with each of them. They have to determine how much
important it is and how much time to spend with each
individual.
04. Using emotions
We are emotional. So, emotional appeal can be a great
way to get what you want. Successful persons know
how to deal with the emotions. They don’t let their
emotions to ruin everything. They know how to use
emotions to achieve what they want.
05. Committing to a physical ideal
Who doesn’t want a nice and healthy looking physical
appearance? To see your body in appropriate shape
that you want requires some working. It’s not
necessary that you should maintain your physical
health like a fashion model or athlete. Determine a
shape of your body which will be helpful for you and
work to achieve that.
06. Being clear about spiritual belief
To be successful and to retain that, you should have
clarity about your spiritual belief. This is important for
inner peace. Some people don’t believe in God. They
maintain some clear logic for that and evaluate the
spirituality from their personal point of view. Be clear
about your spiritual beliefs.
07. Maintaining ethics
Every individual has own point of view on how the
world is going on or how the people around should be
treated. This varies from individual to individual.
Whatever your point of view is, be clear about that and
let people know clearly.
08. Focusing on time efficiency
To be successful in life, you should be able to
determine the importance of any activity you are going
to perform. Depending on the importance of a specific
matter, spend your time accordingly. Don’t waste your
time to do something which isn’t really important.
Save your time as much as you can.

Things Productive People Do Before Bed

 The most productive people all have certain habits in
their daily routines that contribute to their success.
They understand that their success starts and ends
with their mental and physical health, which is almost
entirely dependent upon their habits before bed time.
So, here’re 10 things successful and super productive
people do that leads them being in the top 20 percent
of money earners in our society

Habits You Should Learn From SuccessfulPeople

 According to Winston Churchill, “Success is ability to go
from failure to failure without losing your
enthusiasm.” Many people who want to be successful
think that success happens accidentally and they lose
connection with the fact that it takes individual
consistency and persistence to reach goals.
Steven Spielberg, a world-
renowned filmmaker, was
met with rejection by the
University Of Southern
California School Of
Cinematic Arts multiple
times- while Dr. Seuss had
his first book rejected by
27 different publishers.
But today we
consider these people
successful. Success is
more about routine than
moments of chance. Here
are some of the habits that
have helped highly successful people to achieve their
goals:

Nigerian geniuses you should know

 Phillip Emeagwali
Born in Onitsha, Nigeria and a roommate to Chike Obi,
the first Nigerian to receive a Phd in
Mathematics. When he was 17, Emeagwali scored in
the 99 percentile on the American SAT exam. This won
him a scholarship to Oregon State University in
Corvallis, OR, where he majored in math. Today, much
of the academic and computer world is amazed by
some of the discoveries of this young “Nigerian
genius.” In February of 1989, he the prestigious
Gordon Bell Prize for programming supercomputers
to work faster than ever before and for helping to
solve one of the nation’s toughest oil recovery
problems.

How 11 year old orphan becam a millinonaire

How 11 Year Old Orphan Became a Millionaire. This story was told on http://www.myafricanow.com/a-millionaire-at-20-yrs-old-kenya-tech/. Mubarak Muyika was not a conventional school boy, the kind that depended on Dad and Mum for almost everything, from food to underwear. Not that he detested such luxury, but life didn’t just let him have it.
Orphaned at the age of 11, Mubarak knew he had to brace up and face life head-on. He was made to live with his Aunt and her husband who owned a small book publishing and distribution company, Acrodile Publishers.
While working with his adoptive parents, he discovered the difficulty they faced each day trying to reach more customers with the insufficient help of a webmaster who provided a poor service at a very high cost. Mubarak took the initiative to address this need; he began teaching himself how to build a website using online resources. The result of his work was very amazing. In a space of months, the teenager became a website pro. He then delivered a working e-commerce site for Acrodile Publishers

He told the Business Daily in an interview at Nation Centre, Nairobi.‘‘I cleared high school in 2011, two years earlier I had developed a passion for computers that saw me set up a website for my adoptive parents who were running a bookshop. ‘‘They needed an online platform to expand their venture,’

He knew that was the price he had to pay for his dream. Most people found the young man’s action difficult to comprehend, but not Chris Kirubi; the business mogul who recommended Mubarak for the scholarship.Mubarak’s entrepreneurial leanings were discovered at an early stage, when he began business at Kamusinga High School in Bungoma County. This drive intensified as he grew older, I guess that explains why he turned down what young men his age would call a very rare opportunity; a fully paid scholarship to the prestigious Harvard University in the US.
‘‘Mr Muyika is enterprising and focused, I recommended him to Havard University but noticed that entrepreneurship came first and he had no obligation to pursue the course. Nowadays one can learn in many ways, even Bill Gates did not complete his studies. He walked out and aggressively did serious business,’’Chris tells Business Daily in a phone interview.
In January 2012, Mubarak registered Hype Century Technologies and Investments Ltd, a company which deals in web-designing and domain registration. He soon incorporated two of his friends in the enterprise and within three months, the business became a highly profitable one.
‘We started very small, with Sh50, 000 which I had saved from a freelance job I had been doing as a student and after High School. My first client was so impressed that he offered me space in his office at Rehema House in Nairobi,’’  He recounts.
HypeCentury has continued to grow and become profitable, expanding services to include domain name registration, online marketing, and more. Mubarak’s vision for HypeCentury is to grow East Africa’s economy by leveraging the power of the internet. Isn’t it clear that the young man is striding on the right path?
‘‘We had three computers and in a good month I would pocket between Sh60, 000 and Sh80,000, which I used to pay my two part-time employees. Our services varied from domain registration to web hosting and designing ’’ He says. ‘‘Most of the new staff were university graduates, I was dealing with the best talent in the market,’’
The entrepreneur Mubarak Muyika is also an Anzisha prize fellow; he contested in 2012 and was awarded with Sh1.1 million.
Since then, several major business doors have been opening at will for the young business man. In December 2012, Mubarak hit a big one when he entered business with Indian investor Jignesh Patel who runs I-Code Ltd. Mr Patel acquired a 25 per cent stake in the company while Mubarak had 60. By the end of the year the company had more than 900 domains.
‘‘Patel had 25 per cent shares, Wakwoma five per cent, Doursey 10 per cent and I had 60 per cent. I retained the chief executive’s position but I had the feeling that I was not maximising my potential. I opted to sell my shares and develop a new venture,’’ Mubarak tells Business Daily.
Soon after that, Mubarak registered another firm, Zagace, an enterprise management platform that uses Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) and web-hosting resources to create a basic forum for business systems and processes. He rented a two-bedroom house which acts as his office and has employed about 12 computer programmers. Mubarak is set to take the world and may never relent until he achieves his purpose.
He had the option of wallowing in self-pity with a badge on his chest that says; “I am a helpless orphan, can’t you see?” instead he took charge of his life and became a solution to other people’s needs. You too can take the world, but first, you need to take charge of your life and then step out in faith. You are stronger and more intelligent than you know.

70 Year Old Grandfather Graduates From University

70 year old grandfather graduates from university 

 A 70-year-old man, recently graduated from the Virginia Commonwealth University in the United States.

Tap Van Kieu shared a photo of himself during his ceremony, holding a sign that details timeline of his major life events — including getting married, becoming a father and even a grandfather before realizing the dream of earning a degree.
Kieu’s daughter, Mary Kieu told Huffington Post, in an interview that fled Vietnam in 1975 during the fall of Saigon, with his wife, Kim, and their three young children.

“He’s never been the kind of guy who could be idle for more than an afternoon,” she said, explaining how her father worked odd jobs all his life to provide for his family

“I would describe dad’s story as one of so many other immigrants who are lucky enough to call this wonderful country home,” Mary said. “Work hard, believe in yourself, never give up, and even at the ripe age of 70, you can reach your goal.“

Why You Must Finish With At Least A 2.1 (Second Class Upper) SHARE THIS

  I was busy roaming about the internet when I stumbled upon this great piece,check it out:
This piece is for those undergraduates that will like to seek for jobs after school but do not have solid connection. A 1st class or 2.1 will help you AVOID or ALLEVIATE the labour market frustration. Nevertheless, the ones that have influential parents, uncles and aunts can also take a cue from it because it is easier to help someone with a good result. I am a recent graduate from a Nigerian Federal University. I finished with a strong 2.1 but I wish I made a 1st class. I would have made that First class if I were very hard working. I know many people are like me, they would have had better grades if they were more serious. What I’m saying in essence is that most of us are powerful beyond measures but we do not realize how powerful we could be. Finishing with a 2.1 is just about having 3.5 out of total 5.0 CGPA. One can achieve this by mixing Bs with Cs in your courses. I had many friends that didn’t have solid academic background, weren’t very quick at learning but struggled to finish with 3.5, 3.6 after a lot of hard work. Not to talk of many of you that are sharp, it’s just that you are too lazy. I was also a lazy brat but that’s bygone because I’ve learnt my lessons. As a result of the very high rate of unemployment in Nigeria, employers use all possible strategies to pre screen as many as possible applicants and the most popular is the class of degree. 9 out of every 10 Graduate Trainee adverts ask for a minimum of 2.1. The other thing they use in pre screening is age and many also require to have a minimum of 5 credits including maths and english @ one sitting for O’level. Now let’s analyze it: By the time KPMG, Ernst & Young, PWC, Akintola Deloitte, Shell, Chevron, Exxon Mobil, Total, Schlumberger, Diamond Bank, GTB, Zenith, First Bank, Nigerian Stock Exchange, P&G, Unilever, Honey well, Nestle, Cadbury, Guiness, Nigerian Breweries, Consolidated Breweries, PZ Cussons, etc all advertise graduate trainee positions and they all ask for a minimum of 2.1. How do you think someone that finished with a 2.2 will feel? I’m currently observing NYSC and I’ve been applying for jobs. Many of my fellow corps members always ask me to share latest job openings with them but many of them have not been able to apply for any because they finished with below 2.1. I hope we all have an idea how frustrating this could be, for you not to have the privilege to prove yourself even when you might be better and more employable than some of us that finished with 2.1 and 1st class. As I’m writing this piece, I have two friends that just got job offers from a reputable multinational company in Nigeria. Guess what? They are both still serving and will resume immediately after NYSC in October. You know what? One of them finished with a 1st class and the other with a strong 2.1. I know some of you will ask about me, I’m also at the last stage of interview and I have reached some recruitment stages in other good companies. All I need is Almighty God’s favour and your prayers can also help land a job offer in some days time *lol*. Many of us have been misled. We’ve been made to believe that even if you finish with good grades, you still won’t get a good job in Nigeria if you don’t have connection. For those that will listen, I can confidently tell you that we still have Firms that act with INTEGRITY in Nigeria, Organizations that will hire you based on your abilities, Companies that will not compromise standards, Employers that will give you an offer without knowing even a gate man. Many Multinationals in Nigeria fall in that category. At least, I know of Klynveld Peat Marwick Goerdeler (KPMG) and Procter & Gamble(P&G). We have many others but those are the two I’ve had comprehensive experience with. Finishing with a 2.1 is very easy only if one can put in the required effort and above all pray to God. For the atheists, just keep working hard, working smart and always have a destination. I know you will believe in God someday*lmao* In Conclusion, one of the commonest things in life is seeing talented people that are unsuccessful. Many of us are gifted but we are just too lazy to make the best use of our potential. If Talent sleeps, Hard work will outshine Talent.

Secondly brothers and sisters, consequent upon the return to the previous mode of school fees payment until last year that E-payment was introduced I advise that you all pay in the Zenith Bank PLC nearest to your place of Resident to avoid heavy queue at the branch in the school. Still on this I sincerely sympathize with all of you that had to go through the tedious process today in school-- I sincerely appreciate all those concerned for their understanding and I pray God Almighty strengthen us all to overcome all further challenges in pursuit for knowledge. Our activities may not be too obvious but please be rest assured that Nakoss is not asleep and unaware of your challenges and pains and upon this we are seriously trying our best to ensure that your interests are protected as we are always open to receive complaints and most times observe them ourselves and take it up for solutions through the necessary and concerned stakeholders. To this effect you can tell your friends and acolytes who are yet to get their school fees paid if you have that as from tomorrow payment shall be made at Idachaba LT1 as from 8am and this is due to our cry to the management and the Bank Authority having seen how hectic it is for you all to stand under the scorching sun all in the name of paying school fees. I celebrate you all and I hope we all remember that Nakoss alone cannot do it all and as such your assistance and supports too are needed especially in the area of information sharing. (07068294440). Remember: Endeavor to pay your school fees if you are still at home and have not in the nearest zenith bank plc to you to ease stress for both you and the bank. Best Wishes! Please endeavor to forward to others. ABDULMALIK HADI ADINOYI. NAKOSS PRESIDENT K.S.U.

I recently read this story about this awe inspiring grass to grace story about a 30 year man named Mr. Hillary Agbo-Odeh,who after completing a pre degree programme in benue state university in 2005,was offered physics instead of the course he wanted which was medicine. Due to his lack of intrest in the course he had 17 carryovers by the time he reached 300 level and was placed on probation. He then withdrew from the school and wrote jamb again(this time he applied for psychology which he said was closer to medicine and surgery),fortunate for him he gained admission,and now he is a graduate,but not just a graduate,a first class graduate with 4.75 as his g.p,grabbing different awards with him for the best graduating student of the 14th and 15th combined convocation of BSU held on January 17. Wow!!...I know God is wonderful and all that but this guy just made God's work easier on his life with his guts,hardwork and passion. Congrats
