Live the moment for the moment.

We live on the dash between our birth date and our death date.

As we advance in life, we acquire a keener sense of the value of time. Nothing else, indeed, seems of any consequence; and we become misers in this respect.

Luck is when preparation meets opportunity.

It's today I must be living.

Si quieres hacer algo, tienes que hacerlo ahora. No puedes aparcarlo durante un par de meses y luego volver. Sencillamente, no te puedes permitir decir que lo harás más tarde. Más tarde ya no estarás entusiasmado.

If you can't fit everything in within the time and budget allotted then don't expand the time and budget. Instead, pull back the scope. There's always time to add stuff later — later is eternal, now is fleeting.

If you constantly fret about timing things perfectly, they'll never happen.

In fact, for many, the hybrid approach is the right place to start. If you still want people in the office every day, change that requirement to every afternoon instead. Then let your troops have their mornings to themselves. You may be surprised to find out more work gets done this way.

Even worse, they want to drag others down into their tomb. If you're hopeful and ambitious, they'll try to convince you your ideas are impossible. They'll say you're wasting your time.

Release yourself from the 9am-to-5pm mentality. It might take a bit of time and practice to get the hang of working asynchronously with your team, but soon you'll see that it's the work—not the clock—that matters.

The new luxury is to shed the shackles of deferred living—to pursue your passions now, while you're still working.
