As a Chef, when Ryan Semelhago would step into his kitchen, he would find his team in a flurry of activity. He would smile and tell them 'Don't DNLB'. DNLB meant 'Do Nothing yet Look Busy'.
In today's fast paced, competitive world, productivity is king. We are expected to optimize workflows, prioritize tasks and attain goals. Pretending to be productive is a common occurrence.
Why do we pretend to be productive? Fear of judgment, pressure to perform and the desire for validation are top reasons. In some cases, it's also about avoiding actual work or responsibility.
The problem with pretending to be productive is that it can lead to burnout, decreased motivation, and a lack of real progress. It's a short-term fix with long-term consequences.
Pretending to be productive might provide temporary relief, but true productivity comes from focusing on meaningful work and being honest about your capabilities.
Pretending to hustle in a hurry and posing as busy
Productivity Paradox makes output difficult not easy
