I used to watch the people at work run around all day long talking about how busy they were. They would talk about all the things they had to do, but never really accomplished anything. They were very active, but not at all productive. If they didn’t have anything to do they would get really nervous. I think most were afraid if they stopped they would realize how miserable they were.
Since employees are basically just renting out their time, I would hear things like, ‘I like to be busy because it makes the time go faster.” If you stop and think about it, you are saying that you want to speed up your time. Since you are going to die someday, maybe that is not the best approach, maybe you should find something productive and meaningful to do with the limited amount of time you have.
What are you busy doing?
| Activity | Productivity |
| hanging out on facebook | marketing on facebook |
| reading a blog | writing a blog |
| going to the gym | exercising |
| reading a book | writing a book |
| surfing the internet | building a website |
| watching television | playing with your kids |
| going to a meeting | not going to any meetings ever |
| watching sports | playing sports |
| going out to dinner | making dinner |
| working hard | working smart |
Focus on producing, it makes you feel good and creates the things that you want in life. You will get things done and achieve your goals. You will value your time and enjoy your life, instead of just trying to hurry up and get it over with.
