Episode description

On this episode, we chat about busyness—including how feeling busy is different from actually being busy. Some topics covered include:

  • How we often wear busyness as a badge of honor;
  • How we can’t be busy and focused at the same time;
  • Busyness and busywork;
  • “Parkinson’s Law”;
  • How we tend to overestimate how long we work for;
  • How busyness can be a sign we have the capacity to become more productive.
