However, why does it seem like some people get so much more done than others? I see people around me \u201cworking\u201d all day long on tasks, yet some people are classified as \u201cBusy\u201d while others are classified as \u201cProductive.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This confused me because I don\u2019t believe most people are lazy, I think people are genuinely really trying to get their best work done every single day. But the question kept nagging me, why do we classify some people as \u201cproductive\u201d and not others? This led me to dig more into this question.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After reading numerous <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"productivity resources (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.physicianzen.com\/productivity-books\/\" target=\"_blank\">productivity resources<\/a>, I found the fundamental answer to productivity is the following:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\"><p>\u201cProductive People Focus Relentlessly on Their Priorities\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>This one sentence seems so simple. Yet it can be extremely difficult to achieve in this ever-so distracting world of technology that is constantly pulling our focus and attention away from our priorities.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In this post, I want to dissect out how busy people versus productive people work.

Technology has so many benefits of giving us access to limitless information, but it also gives us access to limitless&nbsp;<em>useless<\/em> information as well.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Our mind and body when given the option will gravitate towards anything with the least amount of resistance such as tabloids, social media, TV shows, etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\"><p>&#8220;The Most Valuable Resource on The Planet is Your Attention.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>The most valuable resource on the planet is actually your attention! Billions of dollars a year are spent figuring out ways to get your attention. The deck is stacked against you and reclaiming your attention is the first step in being productive.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is not enough to simply work on a project, you must give your undivided focus and attention to your Most Important Tasks in order to complete them efficiently. Productive people understand the value of their attention and make sure to reserve it and use it effectively.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"2-busy-people-multitask-productive-people-hyperfocus-on-a-single-task\"><strong>Busy People Multitask, Productive People Hyperfocus on a Single Task<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Some people think that by doing multiple tasks at once (multitasking), you can complete more. Nothing could be further from the truth. Try reading 3 books at once and see how that goes!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><g class=\"gr_ gr_4 gr-alert gr_spell gr_inline_cards gr_disable_anim_appear ContextualSpelling ins-del multiReplace\" id=\"4\" data-gr-id=\"4\">MITs<\/g> will truly enrich your life and will require a significant amount of time and attention to complete. If it was easy, then you would probably already be done with it right?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Completing MITs will require your full attention and focus. Multitasking divides your attention, making it almost impossible to complete your MITs in a timely manner.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dedicate a specific amount of time to complete your few MITs every day without any distractions and you will start accomplishing much more.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"3-busy-people-constantly-do-shallow-tasks-productive-people-batch-shallow-tasks\"><strong>Busy People Constantly do Shallow Tasks, Productive People Batch Shallow Tasks<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Shallow tasks consist of tasks such as email, texting, meetings, social media, etc. I found the most common reason people can\u2019t complete their MITs is <g class=\"gr_ gr_16 gr-alert gr_spell gr_inline_cards gr_disable_anim_appear ContextualSpelling ins-del multiReplace\" id=\"16\" data-gr-id=\"16\">becasue<\/g> they simply don&#8217;t prioritize their MITs and end up constantly doing shallow tasks throughout the day. They feel they were busy all day because they were continuously performing shallow tasks.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Many shallow tasks will eventually need to be processed such as work emails but in <g class=\"gr_ gr_4 gr-alert gr_gramm gr_inline_cards gr_disable_anim_appear Punctuation only-ins replaceWithoutSep\" id=\"4\" data-gr-id=\"4\">reality<\/g> these tasks can usually be processed only once or twice a day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Productive people prioritize their MITs and schedule\/batch shallow tasks around their MITs each day. This is the true secret to having time to completing your MITs each day.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1000\" height=\"563\" src=\"https:\/\/www.physicianzen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Slide6.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3356\" srcset=\"https:\/\/zenproductivity.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Slide6.jpeg 1000w, https:\/\/zenproductivity.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Slide6-300x169.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/zenproductivity.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Slide6-768x432.jpeg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption>How Busy versus Productive People Work<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"4-busy-people-have-lots-of-good-projects-productive-people-have-a-few-exceptional-projects\"><strong>Busy People Have Lots of Good Projects, Productive People have a Few Exceptional Projects<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>You would think that productive people have lot\u2019s of projects going on. But that\u2019s actually not true. Instead of filling their life with lots of projects, they pick out a few that will bring the most meaning to their life and make sure they can complete those.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once completed they will sparingly add on other projects that create significant meaning. Productive people are okay giving up okay or good projects to reserve their time and energy for exceptional projects.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I used to think most incoming opportunities in my life were \u201conce in a lifetime\u201d opportunities. Once I started to get multiple \u201conce in a lifetime\u201d opportunities, I found out that opportunities come up much more than I realized. Productive people wait for the right opportunities and focus <g class=\"gr_ gr_9 gr-alert gr_spell gr_inline_cards gr_disable_anim_appear ContextualSpelling ins-del multiReplace\" id=\"9\" data-gr-id=\"9\">adamently<\/g> on those while ignoring or saying no to other opportunities.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"5-busy-people-say-yes-productive-people-say-no\"><strong>Busy People say Yes, Productive People say No<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\"><p>\u201cThe difference between successful people and really successful people is that really successful people say no to almost everything.\u201d &#8211; Warren Buffet<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>Early in my career, I was saying yes to almost any opportunity that came my way. It felt like an honor to be asked to be part of a group, team, or community!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I soon realized however that I was overcommitting myself to projects and was getting more stressed out because I couldn\u2019t complete any of them. The worst part was that many of these projects I took on had no significant meaning to my life.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I started to then cut down on projects to the bare essentials that would have the most impact on my career. I also started to say \u201cNo\u201d to most new projects that were offered to me.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ironically, as you become more productive, more opportunities will also come your way. It will become even more important for you to feel comfortable saying &#8220;No&#8221; to most new projects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Often times, you may feel bad for saying \u201cNo\u201d because you don\u2019t want to disappoint someone else.
