"Busy" Is the Enemy
March 12, 2014
“If your goal is to build a remarkable life, then busyness
and exhaustion should be your enemy. If you’re chronically stressed and up
late working, you’re doing something wrong….You’ve built a life around hard to
do work, not hard work.
“The solution suggested by [research] is as simple as it is
startling: Do less. But do what you do
with complete and hard focus. Then when you’re done be done, and go enjoy the
rest of the day.”
—Cal Newport
