Dull


You cannot burn the candle 
at both ends and be productive. 
Working more does not equal 
getting more things done. 
Read that statement again 
and let it sink in. 
This was a hard yet important 
lesson for me to learn. 
I mistakenly thought that 
the more hours I sat in front of my computer, 
the more I was getting done. 
What I discovered is that 
when my “blade” was dull
 it took me twice as long to get things done.
