What is personal productivity?

Increasing productivity has become a cultural obsession. People want to get stuff done more efficiently to be better, faster, smarter, richer, or just to free up more time for things they enjoy. But people rarely discuss what productivity really means.

In the traditional sense, productivity is about maximizing outputs, increasing profits, or both. But in the modern sense, when we say “productivity,” we often mean “personal productivity.”

Personal productive is ultimately about achieving goals.

A goal could be anything from making more money in a business (as in the traditional sense of the word), to getting a nine-to-five job done faster so that a parent has mental and physical resources left at the end of the day to pursue personal interests. Some people want to get out of the office faster to spend more time with their families. Some people want to have energy left at the end of the day to put two hours of work into writing a movie script.

On a personal level, being your most productive self means:

  • thinking about what you aspire to get done,
  • figuring out what you are physically capable of getting done in an optimal environment, and
  • following through on creating an optimal environment and completing the necessary tasks to achieve your goals.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
