"Les personnes les moins productives sont généralement celles qui sont le plus favorables à la tenue de réunions"
— Thomas Sowell
Simplified Meaning:
Some people spend a lot of time organizing and attending meetings rather than actually working on tasks that need to be completed. These people often talk a lot about what needs to be done instead of doing the work themselves. Imagine a school project where one student keeps calling for group discussions, but during those discussions, they don't actually contribute any new ideas or help with the project tasks. They seem busy because they're always arranging and attending meetings, but their efforts don't really move the project forward. Because they are not focusing on getting the real work done, the progress is slow. For individuals to be more productive, they should focus on taking action and completing tasks rather than spending too much time in discussions that don't lead to any real results.
