Productive most days

When do you feel the most productive? – Asks the daily prompt.

Usually between 3am and 9am is the time I’m most productive on my hobbies and exercise. From 9am to 5pm I’m most productive on the home and yard work. 5pm to midnight I’m most productive on having fun.

So pretty much all day.

I feel productive if the love I shared with someone is felt. I feel productive when I’ve given my best effort that day. I feel productive when I can look back and see or feel something accomplished.

Productive

When do you feel most productive? – A softball question from the daily writing prompt.

  • In the mornings and late at night.
  • When I’m happy.
  • When I’m organized.
  • When I’m motivated.

Productive times

When do you feel the most productive? The Daily Writing prompt investigates another aspect of life.

When I’ve been able to help friends or family members in some way.

Early in the mornings between 4 am and 6 am. Or late at night between 11 pm and 3 am.

When I’m going from 1st to 2nd and 2nd to 3rd and 3rd to 4th and 4th to 5th and 5th to 6th. Thank God for MANUAL Transmissions.

Sometimes while exercising or after working in the yard all day.

When I’m out shooting and come home with hundreds of new images.

Walking towards the beach to spend the day there. That’s because I’ve busted my ass being productive so I could have that time.

While spending a day with my better half.

When I’m in a good place that day or at that point in life. Because creativity flows then.

Being I don’t work for anyone else anymore I don’t answer to anyone but myself about productivity. I’m still a hard-ass evaluator though. Oh, I forgot my better half, The Boss. So you better double-check with her if my list is correct.

No problem getting down to shoot in that position but getting up isn’t as easy as it used to be..
