You may finish a hundred tiny quick tasks that are totally useless and unfulfilling, which would not be rewarding enough overall, even if added together, which would make you fatigued and drained all the time no matter what you do, even if all of these tasks are infinitely important and necessary for your success.

This isn’t about pushing the narrative or notion that a normal job sucks, nor is it a call to outsource everything that looks like pure labor in your business. I am highly against this, because I do believe that getting a job could be fulfilling, and doing things you hate for a living is totally normal and shouldn’t be demonized. Also outsourcing lets other people get all the fun while you end up stuck with boring and basic management stuff, and become under pressure all the time to produce or work more, because now others work for you, and you have to pay them. It’s okay to have a business or even several businesses that operate that way, but it shouldn’t be the ones surrounding what you’re passionate about. What I wanted to say is that reward has nothing to do with how boring the task is. Some tasks are incredibly exciting but give you zero reward, because they’re pointless and get you nowhere. Gaming is a good example of that. This is about evaluating stuff on a task by task basis. Some things will give you more reward than others, even if they’re all equally important, and even if they all have the same potential to lead you to achieving your goals eventually.
