In Ayurveda, productivity is being able to generate, create, enhance, or bring forth your dharma, or true purpose or raison d’être. Productivity on purpose happens when we align to tejas, or laser-focused insight. To enter your highly productive flow state find the element most out of whack below – and start there.

Ether: Own Your Space

Architect your space to heighten your consciousness. Optimize every space you have control over (your home, office, car, computer, web browser bookmarks, project management tool, your fridge, your nightstand) to meet your evolving needs. Your spaces require constant improvement with your attention. Owning your space pays back in spades with clear focus to apply to open blocks of time.

Air: Own Your Time

Your time is your own. If your beliefs tell you otherwise, don’t believe it. Take control of your time. Create an ideal week calendar for yourself. Dream big. Then, commit to a small step this week that you can do daily to align your current calendar to your ideal calendar. Once that is automated, bite off another small step. In due time, you’ll invest your time in that which you care to attend to.

Fire: Own Your Focus

Your focus is pure gold. Develop your focus by setting specific quarterly targets with the rest of the incorporated world. Then, break down your targets with specific actions you will take to hit your targets. Schedule those actions in your calendar. Do what is on your calendar when it appears. Be intentional with your focus to attend to your attention.

Water: Own Your Flow

When the other 4 elements are aligned you enter a flow state. When you’re in the flow state, pause. Appreciate the flow state. Reflect on what actions got you here. Then, flow on. If you’re not hitting a flow state at least once daily – find the glaringly out of alignment element and do your work to evolve there.

Earth: Own Your Body Habits

Get grounded in your body habits. Without a strong, clean, high functioning body and mind you shoot your productivity attempts in the shoot. The two key habits are: eat a lighter dinner before 7pm to hit a 10 pm bedtime on an empty belly. Wake up early, hydrate with a quart of water, get your poop out, and move your body firmly to fill with invigorating breathe.
