Laura Vanderkam
“people were happiest when they were completely absorbed in activities that were difficult but doable, to the point where their brains no longer had space to ruminate about the troubles of daily life.”
Laura Vanderkam, 168 Hours: You Have More Time Than You Think

Laura Vanderkam
“You cannot remove randomness from the universe. You can, however, use your 168 hours to stack the odds in your favor. To do this, you have to place many bets, and leave nothing you can control to chance. In other words, you have to be open to possibilities, and plan for opportunities.”
Laura Vanderkam, 168 Hours: You Have More Time Than You Think

Laura Vanderkam
“by trying lots of things you think you might enjoy, you will learn more about yourself, and what you are actually good at, what might be your core competencies, and which of the biggies are worth going for. You may be shocked by what you discover. This is why you just have to keep an open mind and try things.”
Laura Vanderkam, 168 Hours: You Have More Time Than You Think

Laura Vanderkam
“you’ll need to figure out what you want to do during your 168 hours. Many of us have no idea; one of the benefits of claiming to be overworked or starved for time is that it lets you off the hook for dealing with the burden of choice. From interviewing people who love their lives, I’ve found that these people focus, as much as possible, in the work and personal spheres, on what I call their core competencies. These are the things they do best, and that others cannot do nearly as well or can’t do at all.”
Laura Vanderkam, 168 Hours: You Have More Time Than You Think

Laura Vanderkam
“Though you will save many hours by seizing control of your calendar, and clearing away non-core-competency activities, in the long run, the best way to create more time is to actually get better at your professional craft.”
Laura Vanderkam, 168 Hours: You Have More Time Than You Think
