Inhaltsangabe

"A practical and compassionate approach to common productivity challenges faced by college students." — Kirkus Reviews

"[Productivity is Power] will offer students deeper-level thinking about study and achievement. This approach expands the topic beyond better study habits and into realms of social, psychological, and philosophical thought. This, in turn, creates an uplifting atmosphere that promotes different mindsets, linking them to solid achievement processes. Take joy, for example. Readers won’t expect this subject to appear in a study analysis, but its discussion both enlightens and promises an attractive alternative approach to achievement."" — Midwest Book Review

Can't finish your work?

Can't start it?

Feel like your grades don't reflect your potential?

These days, there's more pressure on college students than perhaps ever before. A bad economy makes it even more important to get great grades, get great internships or work-study experiences, and to graduate with a great plan. The competition at every stage is intense, and so is the stress. Meanwhile, social media isn't helping. Not only is it massively distracting, it's full of competitive, critical, negative, and otherwise destructive messages.

At the same time, you're probably dealing with all the "normal" productivity challenges that most people face, including procrastination, perfectionism, and time crunch.

Traditional productivity books for general audiences can help some, but what's really needed is a book that addresses college students' unique needs and productivity challenges. Productivity is Power is that book. It will help you:

• Locate, understand, and overcome your barriers to productivity and success so that you can become immediately more productive, successful, and happy.
• Start your work on time, work steadily on it, and hand it on time. (Or early!)
• Work through problems and obstacles. (No procrastination or derailments!)
• Handle mistakes, failures, and other setbacks.
• Manage your time well, so that you can succeed academically while also living a healthy, happy, and balanced life. And,
• Work more effectively with your professors, teaching assistants, and other academic personnel.

And much more! Productivity is Power also offers many unique, and uniquely effective, solutions, including:

• Re-Empowerment. How to locate and remedy the specific forms of disempowerment that keep you from doing your work.
• Compassionate Objectivity. The mindset that neutralizes perfectionism while maintaining accountability and a success orientation.
• Timed Work Intervals, Randomization, “Dialoguing with the Critic,” and other solutions to perfectionism.
• The Joyful Dance, a highly effective work method founded on principles of personal empowerment and compassionate objectivity.
• Values-Based Time Management, which helps you achieve not just maximum empowerment and productivity in the short term, but maximum success and happiness over the course of your career.
• Many solutions for common writing and work problems including not finishing, not submitting, over-researching, constantly starting over, and avoidance (of difficult parts of the project). Also, for efficient decision-making both within and around projects.
• Solutions for coping with criticism, rejection, and perceived failures. And,
• Solutions for “digital distraction,” online harassment, and other 21st Century obstacles to work and success.

...all of which will help today's undergraduate not just succeed, but thrive.

Don't procrastinate on achieving your full potential! Get Productivity is Power now for yourself, or for the student, teacher, counselor, advisor, coach, or parent in your life.
