Laziness is the road to progress, but only when it is allied to intelligent thought and high ambition.

Conventional wisdom is not to put all of your eggs in one basket. 80/20 wisdom is to choose a basket carefully, load all your eggs into it, and then watch it like a hawk.

Use all the willpower at your disposal to make yourself happy. Construct the right stories about yourself - and believe them!

Chose the niche that you enjoy, where you can excel and stand a chance of becoming and acknowledged leader.

There is no rush. If we think intelligently about what we can achieve with our time, we can be relaxed, even lazy. In fact, being lazy - having plenty of time to think - may actually be a precondition for achieving a great deal.

Few people take objectives really seriously. They put average effort into too many things, rather than superior thought and effort into a few important things. People who achieve the most are selective as well as determined.

Only do the thing we are best at doing and enjoy most.
