About 5 years ago, I was sitting in my friends pizza shop, and while I was waiting for my pie I read a magazine article that I have spent a bit of time trying to find again so I can give credit where credit is due. This article was about the success of a particular business man and when he was asked how he became successful, one specific phrase he expressed stuck in my mind. It was, “Do the most productive thing at any given moment.”
For each person, the most productive thing is different at any given time. In the morning we decide whether or not eating breakfast is the most productive thing. Of course at 10:00am, when all we can do is think about lunch, we may not be as productive as we can be. The point is, doing the most productive thing now can affect how productive you are in the near (or distant) future. So choose wisely my friends. Choose wisely.
