Are you busy or productive?
We over-value busy.
You’re busy if you are
- multi-tasking
- in non-stop meetings
- attached to your phone
- constantly checking and responding to emails/slack/texts
- working long hours but not feeling accomplished
- checking off a long list of tasks
Busy = focusing on the urgent not the important.
Are you advancing your organization's strategy through goals or are you focused on urgent tasks?
