jobs stress thinking
People really do think they have to choose between high stress and high reward jobs, and low stress and low reward jobs.
real thinking goal
A goal without real consequences is wishful thinking. Good follow-through doesn't depend on the right intentions. It depends on the right incentives.
thinking views internet
At its core, I don't view Facebook as a social network. I think it could become the driver's license of the Internet. And beyond that, it can become the pipes and the plumbing upon what most of the Internet is built. I think it's very well positioned.
moving exercise thinking
You think you're fatigued, therefore you can't exercise. In fact, you choose not to move, therefore you feel fatigued.
gun thinking doubt
In all cases where doubt crops up, ask yourself, "If I had a gun to my head and had to do it, how would I do it?" It's not as hard as you think.
thinking special bars
Language learning deserves special mention. It is, bar none, the best thing you can do to hone clear thinking.
thinking our-generation self
Food became for me a way of becoming self-sufficient with my hands, to regain manual literacy, which I think has been lost on our generation and certainly younger generations. Very few people can actually make things with their hands and do things with their hands.
thinking people worry
Be bold and don't worry about what people think. They don't do it that often anyway.
thinking views people
I think time management as a label encourages people to view each 24-hour period as a slot in which they should pack as much as possible.
dark thinking people
I'm not averse to making a lot of money. But where does that end? I hang out with people with hundreds of millions of dollars. Is that the standard by which I should measure myself? Where does that take you if you're in my business? I think it takes you to pretty dark, corrupt places.
thinking lazy important
Being busy is a form of laziness - lazy thinking and indiscriminate action. Being busy is most often used as a guise for avoiding the few critically important but uncomfortable actions.
thinking giving people
People are smarter than you think. Give them a chance to prove themselves.
thinking differences lazy
Slow down and remember this: Most things make no difference. Being busy is a form of mental laziness-lazy thinking and indiscriminate action.
thinking people masochistic
Poisonous people do not deserve your time. To think otherwise is masochistic.
