COST-BENEFIT ANALYSIS
Before working on a project, determine whether the results will justify the expenditure of time.
DON'T CONFUSE THE TWO
Urgent items call for immediate attention while important items deserve immediate attention.
DISTRACTIONS
According to Kathy Gates, in her article 7 Secrets to a Great Life, up to 75% of your mental energy can be tied up in things that are draining and distracting.
PACK RATS
If you just can't toss something for fear you may need it soon, tape a throw-out date on it - even if its two years in the future. Then swear under penalty of death that you will get rid of it then if you have still not used it.
DON'T SAW THE SAWDUST
Don't waste time re-living every mistake that was ever made. Spend the valuable time and energy deciding how you can avoid similar mistakes in the future.
DEFINITION OF INSANITY
Doing the same things over and over again but expecting different results.
