(Newswire.net — November 13, 2015) Devon, PA — In todays fast paced environment the requests for our attention have increased while our attention span seems to have decreased. Recently, Time magazine posted that our attention span is went from 12 seconds to 7 seconds. 7 seconds is one second less than a gold fish. Yikes! Attention deficit is a personal and cultural challenge.
We are in reactionary mode moving from thing to thing, busying ourselves with activity but at the end of the day not activities that move us forward and make us happy in our lives. Busy is not productive.
Studies show that the average employee is only productive 5 out of 8 hours. So what are we busy doing? Distractions are a huge factor in managing our attention and focusing on what makes us productive.
Distractions come in all shapes and forms. Like the frog in the pot that slowly gets boiled so it is with our productivity leaks before we know it we have let our attention to go to all other directions other than the most important ones.
Awareness to the problem is the first step so you can take charge. You have the choice where you focus but you have to take charge. The Take Charge usually means to take control. In the context of this radio show it has a double meaning. Charge refers to the management of our energy.
Awareness comes in all different shapes and sizes. Experience, hardships are a few but they take time and can be painful in the process. Learning from others is a great fast, productive way to gain insight and awareness. Take Charge Radio provides this mentoring and awareness with Penny Zenker’s weekly podcast.

In two years of interview one of the most interesting thing is not one person has defined productivity the same. There is no common definition because the topic is too broad and needs further definition. Take Charge of Your Productivity comes from the P10 Productivity Accelerator system. There are 10 core drivers that make up your productivity. They call this the language of productivity. Now we have a common language to discuss what makes up productivity and how to optimize it.
