How Burnout Helped Me Become More Productive
Michael Yeung
Founder of Elite Productivity | Proven systems for consultants & agency owners to buy back time and achieve more
Back in 2019, all I can think of is to outwork everyone as a business owner...
I see people who were further ahead of me working 40 to 50-hour weeks.
And I thought to myself… as long as I work 80 hours a week, I’ll soon become the richest guy in the room.
…6 months go by, I was nowhere near the initial 3-month goal I set for myself.
Instead, I was buried in a ball of stress and anxiety,
feeling like a fraud who calls himself an ‘entrepreneur’ while allowing his business to take over his life. ??
What’s worse?
Rather than taking a break to work ON my business and rethink my approach…
…old me decided that it was a good idea to keep pushing harder.
?? ?????????? ??????????, ?? ???????????? ??????.
But to my surprise, I was more productive than I’d ever been the week after.
Because rather than brute-forcing my way through 30-40 tasks on my to-do list every day,
I paused and brainstormed on different ways that’ll allow me to get more done with LESS.
And just by looking back on the last 6 months...
?
...it became blatantly clear that 93% of the work that I was spending my time on Didn’t. Even. Matter. To. My. Goals.
But it never came to my attention... because I was so tired that I didn’t even have the mental capacity to ??????????.
As a result, I was...
?
Climbing the ladder up the wrong wall...
leaving a ton of time & money on the table...

all the while feeling like I was about to have a panic attack...
