Half of your stress is caused by doing more than one thing at a time. Multitasking = hidden costs.

Fold up and put away your lawn chair before opening another. Otherwise, when the wind begins to howl you’re chasing seven unfolded lawn chairs as they fly around your front lawn.

Homo Sapiens have existed for 300,000 years. Nations and civilization for 8,500 years. Political parties for <500 years.

What history tells us is this:

We’re humans predominantly, citizens recently, and politicos barely.

Prioritize accordingly.

In the C suite, ‘I don’t know’ leaders eat ‘genius’ managers lunch all the time. Why?

Protect your time energy and focus like the priceless treasures they are, or risk losing out to those who do.

Life is not a scrimmage match. It’s the championship, and you are captain and center forward. All of your teammates and fans are rooting for you, and counting on you to show up at your very best.

Business is not busyness, although they can feel the same.

Business is when you add value. Busyness is everything else.

You need to look forward to something because what you have in this moment is not enough. If you were completely satisfied with everything about this present moment, why would you need to look elsewhere?

“There is nothing to gain, nothing to lose in this life. You came with nothing. Whatever is happening, you’re already on the profit side.

So all you have is, how profound, intense and beautiful is your experience of life.”

How do you know when your ambition is unhealthy? When you compromise your main values and core habits.
