Cal Newport tells stories about some amazing people in the past that we think of today as A+ players and very productive. But by today's standards, they would be considered loafers!
- namaria 2y agoPeople fall en masse in the productivity = output/time trap because they have no direction. We are all chasing money and status, and it shows. People we regard as great past personalities are considered great for the outcomes they obtained, not for 'griding/hustling' non stop. I honestly think that the necessity to busy ourselves is a symptom of a deep malaise. Very few people even feel able to consider greater collective outcomes. We need to keep the wheel spinning and the creditors at bay.
