It is not shortage of time that should worry us, but the tendency for the majority of time to be spent in low-quality ways.

Creation occurs when ideas and individuals collide and collude.

Our current use of time is not rational. There is therefore no point in seeking marginal improvements in how we spend our time. We need to go back to the drawing board and overturn all our assumptions about time.

There is no shortage of time. In fact, we are positively awash with it. We only make good use of 20 per cent of our time.... The 80/20 principle says that if we doubled our time on the top 20% of activities, we could work a two-day week and achieve 60 per cent more than now.

It may be that you will be happiest in the rat race; perhaps, like me, you are basically a rat.

Most of us don't work out what we want. And most of us end up with lopsided lives as a result.

If we want to sum up the theory of evolution by natural selection in two words, which have great relevance for all societies and businesses, we should simply remember: diversity works.
