The Iron & Infrastructure Podcast

Ep 231 | Busy Is a Lie | Why Productivity Beats Long Hours Every Time


Listen Later

We've all said it - "I'm busy." But being busy doesn't mean you're actually getting anything done. In this episode of The Iron & Infrastructure Podcast, I break down why time spent doesn't equal progress, how busy work kills momentum, and why clarity is the real driver of execution.

I talk about leadership, priorities, distractions, and why doing more isn't the answer - doing less of the right things is. If you've ever worked long hours and still felt stuck, burned out, or frustrated, this episode will hit home.

The goal isn't to look productive. The goal is to win on outcomes that actually matter.

Key Topics:

  • Busy doesn't mean productive - outcomes do
  • Why unclear priorities lead to burnout
  • Execution on the wrong things is still failure
  • Clarity simplifies decisions and speeds everything up
