The Productivity Lie That’s Keeping You Stuck
For years, I believed that being productive meant doing more.
More tasks on my to-do list. More hours working. More hustle.
If I could just squeeze in a little more effort—wake up earlier, push through the exhaustion, multitask like a pro—then I’d finally feel on top of things, right?
Wrong.
The harder I tried to do more, the more exhausted and overwhelmed I felt. And the worst part? I wasn’t actually making meaningful progress.
If you’ve ever ended your day feeling drained but with nothing to show for it, let me save you some time:
Productivity isn’t about doing more. It’s about doing less—but better.
The Productivity Myth That’s Holding You Back
Most of us have been conditioned to believe that the more we do, the more productive we are.
That’s why we wear "busyness" like a badge of honor. If we’re constantly in motion, checking off tasks, and staying “on top” of things, then we must be doing something right… right?
Except, that’s not how actual progress works.
Busyness and productivity are not the same thing.
Answering 50 emails might make you feel accomplished, but did it actually move the needle on your most important goals?
Saying yes to every request might keep you occupied, but does it get you closer to where you want to be?
Juggling 10 projects at once might look impressive, but is anything actually getting finished?
Here’s the hard truth: if you’re constantly busy but still feel stuck, you’re probably focusing on the wrong things.
The Real Secret to Getting More Done (Without Burning Out)
The most productive people don’t cram their days with more—they get brutally selective about where their time and energy go.
Instead of focusing on quantity, they prioritize quality:
✔️ They work with their natural energy rhythms instead of forcing themselves into someone else’s ideal schedule.
✔️ They focus on high-impact tasks rather than drowning in busywork.
✔️ They plan with intention—so every action moves them closer to their bigger goals.
This is exactly why I built my systems around intentional productivity—because once you start working smarter, not just harder, everything changes.
