2. Simplify
“Our life is frittered away by detail…
simplify, simplify.”
Henry David Thoreau

3. Organize
“Have a time and a place for everything
and do everything in its time and place,
and you will not only accomplish more,
but have far more leisure time.”
Henry David Thoreau

4. Prioritize
“Things which matter most must never be
at the mercy of things which matter least.”
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

5. Aim
“Our plans miscarry if they have no aim.
When a man does not know what harbor
he is making for, no wind is the right wind.”
Seneca

6. Structure
“Efficiency is doing things right.
Effectiveness is doing the right things.
Efficiency without effectiveness is like
straightening deck chairs on the Titanic.”
Bill Redden

7. Balance
“To live only for some future goal is
shallow. It’s the sides of the mountain
that sustain life, not the top.”
Robert Pirsig

8. Habituate
“Habits are like a cable. We weave
a strand of it every day and soon
it cannot be broken.”
Horace Mann
