TOAST

What did one slice of bread say to the other slice of bread when they saw some butter and jam on the table?

We're toast!

What does bread do after it's done baking?

Loaf around…

Believe it or not, it was all fold, tuck and turn during Creativity in Business today, mixed with wood chopping and wood-fired rocket oven heating. UCT has really come a long way from the conventional thought process of intelligent people only being regarded at those good in left hemisphere brain functions such as Maths and Science, order and logic.

So with reference to baking bread I bestow onto you a life lesson learned from this baking course so far;

Exams are 3 weeks away and there is still an immense amount of work to cover as well as work needed to be done on our product. There literally is no time for loafing around, otherwise it is as the one slice of bread said to the other when they saw some butter and jam coming, we’re toast!

I believe there is a new thought process still in the dough making stages of our society and that is the idea that we really aren’t truly productive in our workspaces nor comfortable. This is the advantage of being an entrepreneur! Our workspace is literally as we define it and that could encompass the entire world. We are not bound by the usual confines of corporate society. It’s about being more productive in our work time that makes the world of difference. That way there is more than plenty of time to do the thing in life you truly desire to do.

People often respond to, “how are you doing”, with, “I’m so busy lately”. That statement of being busy implies that the person is successful and important. Is this truly the case though? The better question to ask would be, “are you productive today?” and I would bet that most people who claim they are busy aren’t productive.

So I leave you with a question which you should ask yourself every night when jumping into bed;

HAVE I BEEN PRODUCTIVE TODAY?
