I’ve talked and written many times about efficiency. As a result, I was intrigued by this comment over at lifehacker:
“My problem wasn’t that I was insufficiently efficient. The problem was
that I was way too overextended. I had taken on more than even a very
efficient person could handle. Efficiency is great, but it can only get
you so far.”
I understand the problem. Many of us find (or should I say “get ourselves into”) ourselves overextended, over strained, and overstressed at some point in our lives, maybe even at this very moment.
In these times, is the solution to our troubles that we need to be more efficient? I think not.
