“How could I have been so ignorant? she thinks. So stupid, so unseeing, so given over to carelessness. But without such ignorance, such carelessness, how could we live? If you knew what was going to happen, if you knew everything that was going to happen next—if you knew in advance the consequences of your own actions—you'd be doomed. You'd be as ruined as God. You'd be a stone. You'd never eat or drink or laugh or get out of bed in the morning. You'd never love anyone, ever again. You'd never dare to.”

“Mistakes can be avoided when you start asking the right questions. The more complicated the problem, the more crucial it is that you learn the skill of identifying what problem you are trying to solve and holding tight to that clarity amidst the disruptions of everyday life. If you want more time, learn not to waste time on the wrong problems. If you want more energy, learn to solve problems that have solutions. If you want more money, learn to focus on solutions that can get you more money. The success of your future and the future of those around you is absolutely determined by your ability to develop the habits of an outstanding decision maker. And you can’t make the right decision if you aren’t solving the right problem.”
