Productive Vs. Busy: The Difference

Productive Vs. Busy: The Difference

There is a distinction between the habit of being productive and being busy —

  1. Being busy is activity-based execution with no direction.

  2. Being productive means executing the activities that bring you closer to the experience of personal and professional fulfillment.

So, review your activities and ask yourself:

  • What will completing those activities do for me?

  • What end result or goal do they lead me to?
