I used to make myself busy every waking hour. I convinced myself that I was being super productive because I was working so much.
What would happen if we boiled down our work into the essentials each day?
Hack away the filler, the stuff we do because it makes us feel good, and leave the essentials to be done.
You’ll probably get everything done in 6 hours and feel incredible.
To be fully transparent, this is something that I still do not do to this day. I waste away hours every single day avoiding the important things and filling in work that feels good to do but isn’t all that productive.
