Friday Slackers

Friday, February 24, 2012

Admit it. Three PM on a Friday at any office, in any part of the world is rough. It's also one of the most unproductive times during the week, second only to 3 pm on a Wednesday afternoon (so say the Internet data sources. peak time for surfing across the board is 10 am M-F and 3 pm M-F, and of course, 12 noon for those poor saps who are confined to their desk).

Since you're loitering on my blog, I'll take some pity and not make this a hard core blog about rising prices, unemployment or bad fashions. We have enough of that going on. How abt  good food, family and the really rude policy of not responding to emails.

If you are still being unproductive, bribe yourself back to productivity, so suggests a productivity guru (people are so creative. Have I ever heard this before outside of Stephen R Covey? Talk about inventing a profession. Mom, Dad, I'm going to college. To learn what son? To tell others how to be productive. Wow! Great news!)

What you really want to do is stop wasting time on unproductive websites, (not this one of course. You are actually learning something here)...like....

 carbonation purportedly accounts for 3 extra pounds of water weight per day? Contrast this with coffee, a natural laxative that rids itself of water. Ask any model. They'll tell ya...

spending time on Facebook actually hurts your self esteem? yep. the more time you spend, the less secure, and happy you are. $1 billion isn't worth happiness.

twenty minutes of adrenaline-pumping activity is all it takes to release endorphins, which in turn, makes us feel happy.

When you stop reading this, get yourself a date with anything that gives you 20 minutes of heart-pumping adrenaline. I can think of several that will produce the happy factor....
