There’s something to be said about being too productive, which my WorkAwesome colleague, Mark Garrison, alluded to in a recent article, I’d say that the old adage “less is more” is the best practical approach to any workplace situation. We’ve all heard the quality usurps quantity time and tie again, yet it seems as if we’re always trying to do more…better. The problem is, you can’t do “more” better if you first don’t learn to do “less” best. The practice of doing more stuff adequately is classic underachievement. You take on so much and even if you manage to pull it off and appease your superiors you know deep down that you’re capable of much better.
