AskMonty AI editorial noteSource consulted:
Drawing on a talk by Dorie Clark and personal memories, Montemagno examines the persistent feeling of having no time. Faster tools can raise expectations, working from home can blur boundaries and information overload can occupy attention. He adds a culture of constant work, fragmented tasks and perfectionism. The closing question concerns priorities: distinguishing what creates value from what merely keeps us busy, without proposing one solution for every situation.
Key points
- Time-saving tools can come with higher productivity expectations.
- Continuous information and blurred work boundaries can saturate attention.
- A culture of constant work can produce guilt during breaks.
- Perfectionism and unclear priorities can consume time without proportionate benefits.
