71. How to Use Rest to Fuel Your Efficiency


Listen Later

News flash trying to be MORE productive is wreaking havoc on your brain.

 

Why? Because this isn't the industrial revolution and you are not some cog in a machine.

 

The old way of thinking had us measuring our self-worth by how many widgets we produced. The more we produced the better we thought we were. So we kept producing more and more, even at the detriment of our own mental health.

 

The old way of thinking is outdated and doesn't take into account how beautifully complex your brain is.

 

You see, your human brain desires more than just producing widgets.

 

It desires human connection, and it has ambitions to serve and self-actualize. 

 

The way to get your brain to do this is by shifting your focus away from productivity and instead focusing on how to be more EFFECTIVE.

 

On this week's podcast, I share one of the kindest ways to improve your efficiency. You'll be surprised at how effective this one thing will be.
