Instead of saying “I don’t have time” try saying “it’s not a priority,” and see how that feels. Often, that’s a perfectly adequate explanation. I have time to iron my sheets, I just don’t want to. But other things are harder. Try it: “I’m not going to edit your résumé, sweetie, because it’s not a priority.” “I don’t go to the doctor because my health is not a priority.” If these phrases don’t sit well, that’s the point. Changing our language reminds us that time is a choice. If we don’t like how we’re spending an hour, we can choose differently.

Great way of looking at the issue of time management and prioritizing — N

It’s Very Easy To Be Different, But Very Difficult To Be Better

I like the way this is written. — N

Jonathan Ive  - Being different is art; anyone can do it, because we all have something already there that distinguishes us from everyone else. But being better, wow, that takes time, decades even. Being better is the same as being different, but it’s being different with a purpose.
