Productivity is money. A CRAZY IDEA - Chris Bailey

the more you see yourself like a stranger, the more likely you are to give your future self the same workload that you would give a stranger, and the more likely you are to put things off to tomorrow — for your future self to do.

By controlling how much time you spend on a task, you control how much energy and attention you spend on it.

Happiness is the rose-colored lens we place atop our attentional space, which allows us to relate to our experiences in a more productive and creative fashion.
