8 Huge Lessons From Rene Lacad’s SMM Success That Will Supercharge Your Mind
How he proved everyone wrong. Twice.
There’s nothing worse than being extremely busy, yet extremely unproductive.
Well, it turns out it’s a genuine dilemma many people — in business especially — face every day. The average employee is only productive for 2 hours and 53 minutes per day. Engaged employees are more productive, resulting in a 21% increase in profits (Source). It’s even more challenging when your business is at stake.
The struggle is real.
We’re caught up doing things we shouldn’t be doing. I’ll be the first one to admit it. After all, we live in an age where distractions rarely cease to invade our lives. So, is it really our fault?
Well, if we’re aware of it and neglecting it, then yeah, it is our fault.
If I give you 24 hours to complete a project, the time pressure forces you to focus on execution, and you have no choice but to do only the bare essentials. If I give you a week to complete the same task, it’s six days of making a mountain out of a molehill. If I give you two months, God forbid, it becomes a mental monster. The end product of a shorter deadline is almost inevitably of equal or higher quality due to greater focus.” — Timothy Ferriss
