Much of the stress that people feel doesn't come from having too much to do. It comes from not finishing what they've started.

The real issue is how to make appropriate choices about what to do at any point in time. The real issue is how we manage actions.

You don't manage priorities, you have them.

The ancestor of every action is a thought. —Ralph Waldo Emerson

The sense of anxiety and guilt doesn't come from having too much to do; it's the automatic result of breaking agreements with yourself.

There is no reason ever to have the same thought twice, unless you like having that thought.

You don't actually do a project; you can only do action steps related to it.
