哪句话让你起鸡皮疙瘩？

这是我的答案：「你浪费了数年，因为你无法浪费几个小时。」

关于这个陷阱的 13 个思考：

1. 在学校里受奖励但后来生活中惩罚你的行为：在不问原因的情况下完成工作。

2. 在学校里受惩罚但后来生活中奖励你的行为：问“我为什么要做这件事？”

3. 忙碌陷阱：今天的忙碌会导致明天更加忙碌。你永远没有时间去质疑、委派或优先安排你的日程。

4. 忙碌的标志：你不知道最重要的问题是什么。

提示：如果你不知道最重要的问题是什么……好消息是：你刚刚找到了这个问题，最重要的问题是找到：“现在最重要的问题是什么？”

1. 清理收件箱和消息可能是一个忙碌的陷阱。你所做的只是增加了未来会收到的回复数量。

2. 你的时间比你想象的少。你一天并不是有 24 小时。这就像是把收入和利润搞混了。一旦你把睡眠税算进去，你每天只有 16 小时。

3. 自我提醒：如果我太忙以至于没有 20 分钟的时间去思考当天最重要的事情是什么：我可能应该花一个小时来思考。

4. 令人清醒的数据：调出去年这个时候的日历，看看从现在的角度来看你浪费了多少时间。

5. 能量剃刀：如果你不安排能产生能量的行动，就假设它们永远不会发生。如果你不监控消耗能量的行动，就假设它们会不断扩展。

所有低控制感的道路都通向熵增。

1. 把维多利亚时期工厂工人的思维方式带到无限杠杆的时代，就像带着拳击手套去参加无人机战争。

2. “平均技术工作者不能平均超过 6 分钟不检查通讯工具。”——Sam Corocos

3. “有这么多人工作如此努力，却收效甚微。”——Andy Grove

4. 清晰思考的产出在人类历史上从未如此之高。忙碌的产出在人类历史上从未如此之低。

What sentence gives you goosebumps?

Here's mine: "You waste years by not being able to waste hours."

13 thoughts on this trap:

1. A behaviour rewarded at school that punishes you later in life: Doing the work without asking why.

2. A behaviour punished at school that rewards you later in life: Asking "Why am I working on this?"

3. The busy trap: Being busy today causes you to be more busy tomorrow. You never get the time to question, delegate or prioritise your schedule.

4. Sign of being too busy: You don't know what the most important question to solve is.

Hint: If you don't know what the most important question is... Good news: You've just found that question. "What is the most important question to solve right now?"

1. Cleaning out inboxes and messages can be a busy trap. All you’ve done is increased the number of replies you will get in the future.

2. You have less time than you think. You do not have 24 hours in the day. That’s like confusing revenue with profit. You have 16 hours per day once you factor in the sleep tax.

3. Note to self: If I’m too busy to spend 20 minutes thinking about what the most important thing to do is that day: I should probably spend an hour instead.

4. Sobering data: Pull up your calendar from this time last year and see how much time you wasted in hindsight.

5. The Energy Razor: If you don’t schedule actions that produce energy, assume they’ll never happen. If you don’t monitor actions that drain energy, assume they’ll keep expanding.

All low agency roads lead to entropy.

1. Bringing a victorian factory worker mindset to the age of infinite leverage is like bringing boxing gloves to a drone war.

2. "The average tech worker can not go more than 6 minutes on average without checking a communication tool." - Sam Corocos

3. "There's so many people working so hard but achieving so little" - Andy Grove

4. The output of clear thinking has never been higher in human history. The output of being busy has never been lower in human history.
