In the book
What is not scheduled will be devoured by what is. Pre-spend your sharpest hour. Give the best hour of your day to what matters most, before the world spends it for you — because attention, unlike money, cannot be divided; the hour you give to one thing is wholly gone from another. Keep a "no" list, and protect it. Write down, in advance, the standing requests and commitments you will decline by default, so the wrong headings are refused before they ever reach you — the pilot who can say no is the one who arrives where he meant to. — Time
