Stop being busy –be productive instead

Experiments have shown that when animals are faced with a choice of doing an activity to earn an meal rather than eating a meal with no activity required, then many animals will prefer to do an activity first (obviously the domestic dog and cat may not fit this).

We humans are no better - preferring to be busy is hardwired into us. It is educated into us.

When you are busy are you actually being productive. You might feel satisfyingly exhausted at the end of the day but did it actually do anything for your business at all?

If you can keep your focus on what is necessary for the business then you will get better at being productive.
