#Things to consider

  1. Time is what you pay attention to. It’s not that life is short but that we waste a lot of it, by not being intentional. Take stock of what matters to you and happily disregard what doesn’t.
  2. Living is the least important activity of the preoccupied person; yet there is nothing which is harder to learn.
  3. The person who spends all his time on his own needs, who organizes every day as though it were his last, neither longs for nor fears the next day.
  4. The greatest obstacle to living is expectancy, which hangs upon tomorrow and loses today.
  5. “So if you must fill your time, write something in a simple style for your own use and not for publication: less toil is needed if you study only for the day.”
