An unproductive day.
You finish your tasks, check your todo list off, add more stuff to the todo list, and maybe check that off too. And now you have more tasks for the next day.
Tasks are overrated, as Seth Godin says.
There are people, and technology, that can do tasks in more efficient & cheaper ways. Maybe even better ways.
What's rare - what's productive and doesn't feel like it - is emotional labour. It is working with a project and making decisions. Giving it shape. Making assertions. Dancing with fear. Creating something that didn't exist before.
It doesn't give the satisfaction of checking things off a list, but it makes change happen.
Choose your productive, choose your future.
