Stop being too obsessed with productivity.
別再過于迷信產(chǎn)出率了。

The productivity of a worker is rather important.
一個(gè)職場人的產(chǎn)出率是挺重要的。

The amount of work you do says something about your ability, but only in a limited way.
你完成的工作量可以說明你的能力,不過它的程度很有限。

Besides, comparing two people’s ability simply by the amount of work they do is really not a smart way.
而且,光以工作量的多少來比較兩個(gè)人的能力,真的是一種低端的比較方式。

Such value is used to judge the assembly line workers in the industrial age, and it is obviously inappropriate to judge today's brain workers.
這種價(jià)值觀是在工業(yè)時(shí)代用來評判流水線工人的,現(xiàn)在拿來評判腦力勞動者顯然不合適。

If you think about how to do more work every day, your mindset will become increasingly fixed, and your ability to solve open problems will get worse over time.
如果你每天的思考重心都是怎樣做出更多的活,你的大腦就會越來越機(jī)械化,久而久之你解決開放性問題的能力就會越來越差。

Moreover, this way of working will take up your time when you should be making strategic planning. Instead, you are only trying to become a better-functioning part of a machine, which is definitely not good for your long-term career development.
況且,這樣的工作方式會讓你無暇做戰(zhàn)略性的規(guī)劃,你只是在努力成為一個(gè)更好用的零件,這對你長遠(yuǎn)的職業(yè)發(fā)展肯定是不利的。
