The Hidden Enemy of Productivity: System Entropy

Most people don’t burn out from doing too much.

They burn out because they’ve outgrown the systems they once built.

The dashboards that used to work?
Now they feel bloated.
Confusing.
Overwhelming.

You don’t stop producing because you lost motivation—
You stop because your system isn’t built for who you’ve become.

This is called System Entropy.

It’s when your once-organized system becomes chaotic.
Not because it was bad—
But because you didn’t maintain it.
You didn’t evolve it with you.

And when entropy takes over, so does the spiral:

• Overthinking replaces execution

• Self-sabotage replaces flow

• Procrastination becomes the default

• You start thinking about progress more than making any

But there’s a solution:
It’s called System Hygiene.

Just like your body needs daily habits to stay healthy…
Your systems need daily maintenance to stay functional.

A few minutes a day to review.
Refactor.
Remove what’s not serving you.
Add what reflects who you are now.

I’ve made over six figures selling Notion templates.
I’ve built dashboards for creators, coaches, agencies…

But even I fell into system entropy.

That’s why I made it a habit to spend 1h per day maintaining and improving my systems.

It might not be a you problem.
