Many executives and futurists are saying that the world is experiencing another paradigm shift. A paradigm is a mental model of how we see the world and view reality.
A paradigm shift occurs when our basic view of our world's perspective changes to a new, wider perspective, much like when the inhabitants of the earth realized that the earth rotates around the sun and is not the center of the universe or when masses of people comprehended that the world is round, not flat.
Einstein proved all matter is energy and another paradigm was changed and expanded bringing breakthroughs in technology that otherwise would have been impossible.
New breakthroughs in personal productivity can come if a simple paradigm shift is made, a shift from thinking the workday is full of tension stress to realizing that the workday is also crammed with the stress of creative tension...a good kind of stress.
Tension can be defined as mental, emotional and nervous strain or stress.
Try this paradigm shift and observe its effect on your workday: Consciously change your paradigm of stress tension, which is negative, to a positive stretching condition. This positive stretching, this creative tension is pulling you forward and permitting tension to be a compelling force to move your work forward.
What would happen to your workday if you changed and used this paradigm of tension on even just a few tasks? Workers who have tried this shift say they feel more relaxed and creative. In this frame of mind, they get more done.
By analyzing your work day and noting the times you felt stressed by the stock market, the financial report, the attitude of the Director of Marketing, a global competitor, or the new intern and then contrast that to the times you felt stressed at writing the brief, describing the new product line, explaining the new benefits package, or defining your vision of the future, you will see the two kinds of stress are very different.
The first stress is the normal stress we have felt for centuries and is often described in caveman terms: Harry Caveman meets Lenny, the Saber-toothed tiger and must fight or flee. This stress has you reaching for the Rolaids and needing a vacation.
The second kind of stress is the pulling, stretching, compelling tension felt at creating...the stress of looking for the right word, finding the right metaphor, using the right motivational language. This is an elating stress. It becomes a defining moment that makes the workday worthwhile and makes you feel self-actualized.
