Our efficiency relies on “no.”
When new projects happen, keep three things in mind:
- Every day we walk around with a limited supply of energy.
- Every task we take on consumes a part of that energy.
- There is a willpower tax for doing things we don’t want to do.
The last one is important because we all have things we don’t want to do but have to anyway. Often, we have no choice in the matter.
It serves as a reminder to create buffer time around and allow a chance to relax.
We aren’t robots, and we don’t work at our best when we emulate them.
