I'm back. If you haven't read my emails over the past few days, Merry Christmas.
I've been at home, visiting family, and eating, often too much.
But now it's time to get back to work? At least it feels that way for me, because I'm a bit of a workaholic.
That's ironic, because the whole reason I quit my 9-5 job 12+ years ago and started doing stuff for myself was that I'm lazy by nature, and I wanted to work less, and have more free time.
In the words of Ernest Hemingway, about the topic of work:
"It’s a hell of a habit to get into and it’s just about as hard to get out."
But I've set my mind to getting out of it.
In other words...
I'm trying to get as much (or more) important stuff done... while having more free time.
In still other words, I'm trying to improve my productivity, while reducing my business.
What about you?
Where do you stand with respect to the concept and promise of "productivity"?
Productivity yea?
Productivity nay?
A New Year's resolution for 2026? Or just the opposite?
