A Review Of The Tapping World Summit Presentation On Work Productivity And Procrastination

Pamela Bruner's presentation is about productivity and how to overcome procrastination and putting tasks off at your work. Pamela is already a successful businesswoman and already was so when EFT came into her world. Once I heard that at the start of this presentation, my ears perked up. This is obviously someone that knows how to succeed and can genuinely advise us on how to succeed at work.

Causes of wasting time and procrastination in the workplace were discussed. In order to find the cause, Pamela suggests that we ask ourselves what is the downside of doing the task. For example, if you go ahead and make more money, then you may be more successful than your family. Or if you do not know who you will be if you move up to a higher position in work. And a very common worry about finishing projects is fear of criticism, and Pamela gives examples such as fear of finishing your website worrying what people may think.

Another cause of procrastination and lowering of productivity discussed was the need to feel busy. She explained how keeping busy is not necessarily being productive; in other words, that people can be needy of being busy. Pamela also explained that when we are doing a task and allow ourselves to get distracted, it takes 18 minutes to get back into the task. I did not know that before, and it certainly explains a lot. Pamela also discusses the need to do more social media surfing than is needed, emotional eating, compulsive checking of emails, and other unproductive activities that keep people from being more productive at work. Pamela usefully explains how to reduce overwhelm by making a list of tasks and prioritizing them, so that the important ones to your productivity get done.

All the above issues are tappable, of course.

In terms of style of EFT delivery, the interviewer, the lovely Jessica Ortner, asked a very useful question. She asked about Pamela's use of Setup statements that did not stick to the traditional "Even though I have this problem, I deeply love and accept myself" format. Together, they explained to the listener that it was perfectly OK to deviate from the traditional Setup statement. I like that, as sometimes I am doing EFT with clients and they panic when I use anything other than the strictest Setup statement format. This explanation is very helpful to anyone who would go on to use the services of an experienced and skilled EFT practitioner and saves a great deal of worry thinking they have to do it strictly by the book. Jessica also asks about the use of positive phrases in the statements that Pamela uses. Pamela explains that she uses positive statements when the charge has already released somewhat from the situation. She also explains using positives in order to bring forth aspects for healing. This is very important to note, as in my experience, positive statements can be a much gentler way to bring stuff up for release than making a load of negative statements.

And my favorite style discussion in this presentation is this. Pamela explained about how she does EFT on action rather than just tapping on emotions. In other words, considering the action you need to take next and tapping on the blocks in your path to that specific action. This is also great for new tappers who need to tap for moving forward, and it goes for any goal, not just business-related ones. Pamela also recommended speaking our business worries as we tap rather than using a traditional tapping procedure. I like that too.

All in all, this presentation gives great tips on how to be more productive at work and gives an insight to EFT newcomers on how we can tap in alternative ways. It is probably the most succinct and information-packed presentation of this year's Summit.
