Intentional inefficiencies and opportunistic lawn mowing
Plus: Savoring vs. consuming, a critique of paternalistic tech criticism, and a productivity master falls for Parkinson's law – Digest for the week of May 19th.
In this digest:
Intentional Inefficiencies – Good time management is not always about efficiency. In fact, it’s often by being intentionally inefficient that one gets quality out of their time.
Opportunistic lawn mowing – Remote work lets you integrate professional and personal tasks effectively, but only if two prerequisites are met.
Stop consuming. Start savoring. – Let's raise the quality bar for what we feed our minds with.
We need more refined technology critiques – Only nuanced critiques can improve how we interact with technology.
Parkinson's law strikes again – Even a best-selling productivity master cannot stop work expanding to fill the time available for its completion.
