How Smart People Work Less and Get More Done

How Smart People Work Less and Get More Done | ISC Recruiting News & Views | Scoop.it

Some people have an uncanny ability to get things done. They keep their nights and weekends sacred and still get more done than people who work 10 or 20 hours more per week than they do.

A new study from Stanford shows that they are on to something.

The study found that productivity per hour declines sharply when the workweek exceeds 50 hours, and productivity drops off so much after 55 hours that there’s no point in working any more.

 

That’s right, people who work as much as 70 hours (or more) per week actually get the same amount done as people who work 55 hours.

Ann Zaslow-Rethaber's insight:

With time being the most valuable commodity any of us have, I am always eager to learn more ways to maximize my time, allowing me to get more done, in less amounts of time.

 

Great, easy to implement suggestions!
