Distracting reactions about anything undermine a clear mind about anything else.

Decision-making when things show up instead of when they blow up is actually a habit that can be developed and enhanced. The trick is to get used the clean feeling of having decided, instead of sitting on a fence.

If you’re at zero backlog, it’s a whole lot easier to change priorities.

Things rarely get stuck because of lack of time. They get stuck because the doing of them has not been defined.

'I need milk' and 'I need to decide whether to buy this company' both tie up space in psychic RAM. The solution is simple. Write it down. Look at it. Do it or say to yourself 'not now'.

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.

Trust yourself to do what you really feel like doing, and what you feel like doing will change. Don't, and it will plague you.
