Work Less to Get More Done

I read an interesting article about how Woody Allen works the other day. This was my favorite part:

4. Productivity. To put out a movie every year or so, plus plays, magazine stories, books. you would think Woody Allen works around the clock. From a 1980 interview, “If you work only three to five hours a day you become very productive. It’s the steadiness of it that counts. Getting to the typewriter every day is what makes productivity.”

That is how we have structured our days. We don’t work 80 hour weeks, but we sprint every time we sit down to our work, great focus and great productivity ensue.
