We’ve all said it—“I’m so busy!”—as if it’s a badge of honor. But what if being busy isn’t the same as being productive? In this episode of TheUPside, we’re rethinking the way we answer, “How’s life?” and challenging the idea that a full calendar equals success.

The truth? Not all tasks matter equally. The 80/20 rule—also known as the Law of Unequal Payoff—proves that a small percentage of your efforts create the majority of your results. So, how do you figure out what really moves the needle?
