During a recent conversation with a colleague, we got to talking about busyness and importance. It is easy to fall into the busy trap and to get caught up with the details of every day home and work life. He said this direct quote during our short chat. It was so profound that after we were done talking I ran to my office and wrote it down. (You’re a genius, Justin!)
Busyness for the sake of busyness is a rampant problem in academia and in my life. Here’s to prioritizing the important things this Monday morning.
