Focus and scattterfocus is all that matters.

Time and attention aren’t the same thing. They're barely related.

Forget about time management.

Productivity is not at all about having planners.

How we make decisions:

We like to think we make complicated decisions based on rational analysis, but most of the time, we actually make an emotional decision and then invent a rational analysis to justify it.

Much time management and getting things done is not about time: it's about scale.

This caught my attention:

Taken as a whole, these results suggest that, sometimes, attention can mislead us about the world. This is not to say that attention always distorts our knowledge of the world, but it does suggest that it might not be the unproblematic guide to knowledge that we originally thought.

Investing advice:

A recommended daily habit: Replace one hour of screen time with one hour of reading in your job's subject area.

Slow down!

An easy trick to slow down is to ask: “Why the rush?” and to take a step back. Is speed really adding to the quality of the output?

What do you do when all of your inboxes are empty or ignored? That’s your purpose in life.

What activities act as a magnet for your attention? Which of today’s actions will you dream about? What makes you truely happy?

You can find breadcrumbs to your purpose in many corners of life.

Effectiveness:

The flip-side of the "To-Do" list should always be the "Not To-Do" list. 

I’m loving this quote:

Develop what’s inside first, because what’s inside is reflected outside.
