Genuine interest build connections. Not self-interest.

Many people want different results without changing their effort - because change is uncomfortable, we avoid it.
But change is also the way to learn, grow and increase your likelihood of success.
Accept the temporary discomfort to improve your long-term happiness.

Your overall work takes longer, but only because of relentless task switching and the time it takes to refocus.
Multitasking kills productivity.
