The 50x Productivity Framework (PART 2)
(5) Productivity doesn’t make us a machine. One of the main reasons science has progressed so far is tools that help us get finer grain, objective perspectives on reality than our senses can.

(9) It’s worth each of us individually spending hundreds (if not thousands) of hours improving our productivity.
