Are You Really Being Productive?
It turns out there's this thing called “task masking” where people pretend they are being productive to deceive their “helicopter managers” and get them off their backs.
Now, although acting like you're working instead of actually working might be tempting it shouldn't be a habit.
If you're going to put so much effort into acting like you're working why not just work right?
Helicopter managers can be extremely annoying but at the end of the day it's better to use your time intelligently and be productive.
Some tips:
Manage your energy, not just your time
Build a better to-do list
Tune out distractions
