Simple Wake-Up Call: Another Moment of Zen

First, thank you Heath for inviting me! It's been a wonderful ride all week long! Now, another of Ten Simple Truths I've discovered while studying how stuff gets done in most workplaces:

There are three basic reasons for doing less at work...

  • "Work is important, but it is not life.
    I want to focus on all that life outside of work has to offer."
  • "I want to make a difference. The work I do must matter.
    So I only focus on what I believe matters."
  • "I want to be the best I can be. So I focus on what excites me and helps me grow."
Which means:
  • Doing less and laziness are not the same thing
  • Every individual must decide why s/he wants to do less,
    and live every day according to that decision

Simply, work smarter. Take care of yourself, so when you go into work, the hours you put in are well focused, and you select the work that's important to do.
