If you spend a lot of time doing minor things can expect to get major results?

It’s sounds obvious but if you look at how your day is structured and where you spend your time, you’ll be shocked.

As the productivity saying goes, “it’s not how many hours you put in but what you put in the hours.”

Where are you spending your time?

On major things that will move the needle or minor things that don’t.
