"Yes, monotony and routine can be truly wearisome. They transform our colorful, over-stimulated existence into black and white. But a task left undone SHOULD be a burden. If you make your system for productivity too productive, you will become anesthetized to your responsibilities.

You will feel burdened, but you will also catch a glimpse of just how busy you are and what you should prioritize."
