What should i accomplish today

Their corporate and critical successes are due to passion, customer service, and paying attention to the right things.

Hey JD — my favourite part was quantifying how many hours we really do have.

I like the question. None of which is very productive. A question like yours can get you focused and put you on the right track. What I like about this method is that everyday it makes you estimate how much you can do given the number of hours and energy you have. Over a period of time, this makes one better at planning. This somewhat leaves out the question of sacrifice though. Hi JD! Great post. I always bite off more than I can chew when it comes to planning my day—but what always steers me back to sanity is exactly what you wrote about here.

I don't even drink wine and I could tell you a lot about it. As you get older, however, you realize you only really need a handful of friends. And, that most important friend is your bestie.

You know. The person who knows everything about you and is still friends with you. Find a quality friend whom you enjoy and remember that friendships require effort. Put the time in so you have this important stabilizer in your life. But, do you want to be doing all that change-up for the next 20 or 30 years? Find your dream job and make sure that you do all you can to secure it. Doing good for others makes you a stronger and more well-rounded individual.
