People don’t burn out because they’re weak. They burn out because they keep doing things that don’t matter.

It’s not volume that drains you. It’s the weight of meaningless work.

Running hard in the wrong direction? Still makes you tired. But you’re not getting anywhere.

That’s not hustle. That’s exhaustion theater.

You think you’re overwhelmed because your calendar is full. But it’s not the amount of tasks. It’s the quality of tasks.

High-output people don’t work less. They just eliminate the 80% that doesn’t move the needle.

The problem isn’t that you’re doing too much. It’s that you’re doing too much of what doesn’t matter.

You:

And still feel like you’ve done nothing.

Because you haven’t.

Meanwhile, one hard thing that actually moves your goal? Would’ve done more than your whole “productive” day.
