“The key to productivity is focus when there is no pressure, no deadline, no observer to drive you on. It’s not difficult to work under pressure—then you have to address the most pressing need. You don’t have to think about priorities, you simply address the compelling. It’s the discretionary hours of one’s life that are most critical. Not that it’s necessary to always be busy and always producing; recreation and socialization are also important. But one should take care to not indulge discretionary time, and one should care for that discretionary time so that it is not dominated by self-indulgence.” – G.W.P.
