Are You Busy or Productive?

Just being busy at something is not enough. The tasks we are occupied with should relate to the "big picture." Try this: record your activities for a week, listing the time it takes to complete each task. At the end of the week, analyze your record. Are you completing projects on track? Or are you wasting time on "busy work" that could actually be skipped? Were all the tasks truly necessary? Or are you allowing distractions to interrupt legitimate work? Try to eliminate the big time-wasters and you´ll boost your productivity.
