“Focus on being productive instead of busy.”
— Tim Ferriss
“If you don’t have time, the truth is, you don’t have priorities. Think harder; don’t work harder.”
“What we fear doing most is usually what we most need to do.”
“The most important actions are never comfortable.”
“It isn’t enough to think outside the box. Thinking is passive. Get used to acting outside the box.”
“Do not overestimate the competition and underestimate yourself. You are better than you think.”
“You can lose money and make it back, you can’t do that with time.”
“Lack of time is actually lack of priorities.”
“One can steal ideas, but no one can steal execution or passion.”
“Reality is negotiable.”
“The best way to improve mental performance, is to improve physical performance.”
“Life is too short to be small.”
“An entrepreneur isn’t someone who owns a business, it’s someone who makes things happen.”
“If the challenge we face doesn’t scare us, then it’s probably not that important.”
“Think big and don’t listen to people who tell you it can’t be done. Life’s too short to think small.”
“Three ingredients of luxury lifestyle design are time, income, and mobility.”
“A person’s success in life can usually be measured by the number of uncomfortable conversations he or she is willing to have.”
“But you are the average of the five people you associate with most, so do not underestimate the effects of your pessimistic, unambitious, or disorganized friends. If someone isn’t making you stronger, they’re making you weaker.”
“Money doesn’t change you; it reveals who you are when you no longer have to be nice.”
“Fear is your friend. It is an indicator. Sometimes it shows you what you shouldn’t do, more often than not it shows you what you should do.”
“Ninety-nine percent of people believe they can’t do great things, so they aim for mediocrity.”
“Simplicity requires ruthlessness.”
“Short, sweet, and to the point. Clear writing, and therefore clear commands, comes from clear thinking. Think simple.”
“Believe it or not, it is not only possible to accomplish more by doing less, it is mandatory. Enter the world of elimination.”
“Be bold and don’t worry about what people think. They don’t do it that often anyway.”
“People will choose unhappiness over uncertainty.”
“If you are insecure, guess what? The rest of the world is, too.”

“Doing something unimportant well does not make it important,”
“Excitement is the more practical synonym for happiness, and it is precisely what you should strive to chase. It is the cure-all.”
“What you do is infinitely more important than how you do it.”
“Perfection is an impossible destination.”
“Just because you are embarrassed to admit that you’re still living the consequences of bad decisions made 5, 10, 20 years ago shouldn’t stop you from making good decisions now. If you let pride stop you, you will hate life 5, 10, and 20 years from now for the same reasons.”
“The decent method you follow is better than the perfect method you quit.”
“Don’t suffer fools or you’ll become one.”
“The best results I have had in my life; the most enjoyable times, have all come from asking the simple question: ‘What is the worst that could happen?’”
“Luxury, to me, is not owning a lot of stuff. Luxury, to me, is feeling unrushed.”
“Luxury is feeling unrushed. It is designing a life that allows you to do what you want with high leverage, with many options, all while feeling unrushed.”
