Let’s face it we all want more time in our ife to
get more done, be more, do more and have more.
The thing is, we are all given the same 24 hours
in a day as everyone else. So why is it then that
some people are just so much more efficient at
squeezing more out of every moment of every
day? Well they have a few secrets up their sleeve
that you should know about.

3. PRODUCTIVITY DEFINED
It is the measure of the efficiency of a
person, machine, factory, system, etc, in
converting inputs into useful outputs. It
is computed by dividing average output
per period by the total costs incurred or
consumed in that period.

It is the state or quality of being
efficient or able to accomplish
something with the least waste of
time and effort or with a minimum
