Productivity is defined as the ratio of outputs to your inputs. It pertains to the volume of total output generated from a given volume of resources and outputs. To put it simply, it is the gauge of a production’s efficiency. However, you have to be very careful when it comes to defining how to gauge your productivity. Did you know that all productivity myths come from inaccurate measurement metrics? Doing tasks at a faster pace is a common example of productivity. Speed may be an indication of higher productivity, but when the focus is wrong, the end results may be dissatisfying.

Écrit en 1886, "La Mort d'Ivan Ilitch" est un récit emblématique de l'œuvre de Léon Tolstoï. Un magistrat, très satisfait de lui-même, apprend qu'il est malade, condamné à mourir dans de grandes souffrances. De cette peur primitive et essentielle qu'il éprouve, va émaner en lui une nouvelle conscience du monde et de lui-même. La lucidité va surgir de la douleur et entraîner avec elle l'abandon des vanités humaines.

Préoccupé depuis son plus jeune âge par les rapports hiérarchiques qui maintiennent les hommes dans l'état de servitude, Tolstoï montre à travers ce récit combien il est difficile de s'extraire des relations de domination, qui sont elles-mêmes le fruit de la cupidité et de la crainte de l'autre. Seule la peur de la mort permet au maître et à son serviteur de se départir des conformismes pour atteindre un niveau de conscience supérieur, moral et absolu.
