One of the more modern classics of productivity focuses on the value of our time and" “highlighting” our day’s most important task - something that comes up regularly in productivity reads about less. Ali Abdaal reviews this read well!
🔥 Super quote this week!
From the book Four Thousand Weeks - this quote really sums up the less is more concept. Something we hear so much of, but the goal of productivity isn’t more - it’s actually the act of doing the “right things”.
The real measure of any time management technique is whether or not it helps you neglect the right things.
— Oliver Burkeman
🍱 Our New Bento Methodology Course
