Productivity is a waste of time, Do you know what is worth your time? Unproductivity. Basically, instead of reading all these books on how to be productive, You can stop wasting your time And Just read this post.
Have Lots Of Interrupted time!
Always have all the notifications on your phone. Live with LOTS of people, and do whatever possible to ensure that you will always be interrupted. This will make it impossible to have the best use of your time. Being interrupted is not only infuriating But funny to have happened on a consistent basis. It will keep your stress level high. Therefore your motivation will also be high!
Avoid Quadrant II Tasks
Have you heard of Covey's work? In his book "The 7 Habits Of Highly Effective People" He talks about how all your everyday tasks are in a quadrant. If you want to be less productive, you need to always AVOID those quadrant two tasks! These are the Important but not urgent ones!
This will make it help you be less productive, But also cause you to be more motivated because you'll get less of the important things done in your life.
Allow Yourself To Get Distracted
Sometimes we have those days where it's difficult to stay on task. We know we have a ton of things to-do, But we just don't want to do them for whatever reason. When you allow yourself to get distracted, you can be more relaxed and less stressed about all the things you don't want to do. You can then completely forget about the things causing you stress and pain.
Conclusion
Productivity is overrated. And we all know we shouldn't' listen to those so called "experts" in the field that have had great success in every aspect of their life. That would just be silly to listen to those kinds of people. Just because they are successful doesn't necessarily mean we'll be successful just for listening to them.

@lauralemons Drew me !
The thing is, I have far too many quadrants in my life... and I need to do something with them... perhaps I can sell them at a garage sale? Who knows...
That said, I am TOTALLY looking forward to some "unproductivity time" today.
And yes, I know this is a satire post! That drawing of you is awfully cute...

Well, sometimes unproductivity can also be the reason for potential productivity. Life is unfair, busy and for sure, not easy either. We all need a break, so being unproductive sometimes can do the job.

@kaylinart for you to be a steemian means you must be productive. Using your brain to write/develop something still means you are productive.
I stand to be corrected.

I'm starting to look forward to these posts everyday! Thanks for sharing. I think I will use all my unproductive time to post more on Steemit as I can't seem to get anything in the top priorities done today! Woosahhh! May go jump in the pool later as well if it warms up once I get off work. I'm feeling more unproductive, relaxed, and relieved already!

Sure, but what good is "productive" or "effective" without a proper aim! As the white rabbit so famously advised:
"Don't just do something stand there".
Productivity unpaired without a true purpose is a monumental waste of time!
I'm fortunate to have gone through periods of monumental unproductivity in order to better understand what it is I would love to do with my life.
:)
Just my 9 cents!
