from Profit Your Knowledge · host James Allen

Parkinson's Law is explained as "Work expands to fill the time available for its completion." Today we're going to cover how to understand and maximize this principle.   If you want to learn how to work less and achieve more, check out the Performance & Productivity Planner here - https://www.consistentpeak.com/planner  In 2014, there was a survey done by Salary.com that found, that 89% of workers, admitted it to wasting time at work every day. And out of these people, 61% claim to waste between 30 minutes to an hour a day.    While it may not seem like much, what happens is that time compounds so those five hours per week, end up turning into 260 hours per year and that's per employee!    Or if you're an online business owner, that's time that you have just wasted being unproductive and focusing on tasks that are completely unrelated to your actual goals.    So, in today's lesson, we're going to go over a wonderful productivity principle known as Parkinson's Law and I will explain how to best leverage this tried and true principle.
