Productivity can be aimed at achieving a number of different goals, including but not limited to optimization, focusing on a single important thing, and maintaining financial stability.
It is important to have a productivity system in place in order to achieve these goals.

Once you realize that productivity ideas can offer you great autonomy in shaping your life - however you decide to do that - your relationship with it becomes more nuanced and fruitful. Productivity can be understood as applying organization tools and deliberate processes to take back control of your obligations.
