In his attempt to emphasize the difference between efficiency and effectiveness, management guru Peter Drucker famously drew a line between “doing things right” and “doing the right things.”
I like your post. It encourages reflections. I have read certain individuals claiming to spend up to two hours a day. Merely thinking. I have to chuckle. I know some of them are in finance. Personally, as someone working multiple jobs. Two hours for me is better spent on chores around the house, exercise, and/ or reading. Again, I too find reflecting useful. At the same time, doing it for two hours or more makes people like me sigh and wonder.

Thank you for your time and post.
There are a variety of ways to spend those two hours where it might integrate into a daily schedule differently than just quietly sitting.
What works for you, Joe?
