The Accountability Coach: Business Acceleration | Productivity 8 Ways to Achieve More by Working Less
For years, the idea of success was tied to hustle. The longer the hours, the greater the sacrifice, the more valid the ambition… or so it seemed. Think: 14-hour days, skipped meals, late-night emails. Exhaustion doesn’t equal effectiveness. In fact, the opposite often happens, and performance starts to plateau, and burnout creeps in.
It’s a pattern many professionals recognize. After too many late nights or costly mistakes made from fatigue, the realization hits…there has to be a smarter way to effectively work within ‘normal’ hours.
Turns out, there’s solid research behind it. A Harvard Business Review study found that taking regular breaks improves productivity, decision-making, and job satisfaction. Stanford research shows that output per hour drops dramatically after 50 hours of work in a week, and output really falls off a cliff beyond 55 hours.
Working less isn’t about doing less. It’s about doing the high payoff activities that moves the needle, with clarity and energy. It’s not laziness, it’s leverage.
Here’s how to apply this ‘achieve more’ mindset and get even better results by doing less.
When you embrace the idea that rest, movement, focus, and systems are tools and not indulgences, you’ll start to experience what real productivity feels like.
And it definitely won’t require 14-hour days to get there.
