We’ve all said it—“I’m so busy!”—as if it’s a badge of honor. But what if being busy isn’t the same as being productive? In this episode of TheUPside, we’re rethinking the way we answer, “How’s life?” and challenging the idea that a full calendar equals success.

The truth? Not all tasks matter equally. The 80/20 rule—also known as the Law of Unequal Payoff—proves that a small percentage of your efforts create the majority of your results. So, how do you figure out what really moves the needle?

We’ll dive into:
 ✔️ Identifying your true priorities and putting them first
✔️ The power of saying no—and why it actually creates more opportunities
✔️ Leveraging systems, tools, and people to work smarter, not harder
✔️ Why blank space in your schedule isn’t lazy—it’s essential

Let’s stop wearing exhaustion like a trophy and start making our time work for us. Hit play and take the first step toward shifting from busy to productive!
