The biggest productivity strategy in the modern world is getting ruthlessly clear about what you want to do and cutting out everything that doesn't contribute to it, says the speaker. With so many opportunities available to us, we get easily distracted from our priorities and stray from our highest point of contribution, causing frustration and lack of progress.
Tiago discusses how perfectionism often leads to procrastination and how prioritizing high-leverage activities can lead to more effective efforts. He also shares the idea that serving others comes from the overflow of our own cup, rather than trying to serve from an empty cup.
