Take this with a grain of salt, but: We have a tendency to jump at work which is easy to do. In my experience, very little of such work has impact beyond the instant gratification. Most impactful tasks which are also easy would've been done by now.

We do small things for others. They offer us an easy break from routine. I don't want to say that you should be a jerk and never do anything other people, but you should take a moment to think about if the thing actually is helpful for others. Thoughtful actions are better than the ones which are most readily visible.
