You Arent as Busy as You Think
Summary
While attitudes toward work hours still have a long way to go when it comes to any sort of change, there are concrete strategies you can employ if you want to escape “the cult of busyness” and really get out of feeling overworked and overwhelmed. By recognizing that you need to stop using hours worked as a badge of honor, it’s possible to start getting down to implementing strategies that could move the needle and make you feel like you have a handle on all your responsibilities. Set a calendar reminder to re-evaluate your current work process and daily schedule on the first workday of every quarter so you can look at your progress and accomplishments through fresh eyes. Reserve a conference room or set up shop in a cafe, and treat this evaluation time as an unbreakable commitment. Instead of buying into the water cooler conversations about how busy and stressed you are, consider focusing on what you’ve recently accomplished or upcoming plans with friends and family.
