From the moment that we know what we want, we should increase the amount of time that we invest on what we really care about and reduce or eliminate the time that we spend on non-important things. We should try to be aware as often as possible. I mean COMPLETELY AWARE.
Over the last couple of years, I came to realize that I was wasting time by trying to accomplish too many projects at once. By wanting to do too much , I ended up do much less than expected. I had to learn to say NO to very interesting oppornunities in order to say YES and to focus completely on THE MOST IMPORTANT.
The intensity of your desire on the project will influence how long it will take you to accomplish it.
Most people are busy, some are very busy, the question is: Are they busy doing what they really care about?
