“My goal from the very beginning was just to write good songs that don't require any production to be felt or understood.

“Working from home meant we could vary snack and coffee breaks, change our desks or view, goof off, drink on the job, even spend the day in pajamas, and often meet to gossip or share ideas. On the other hand, we bossed ourselves around, set impossible goals, and demanded longer hours than office jobs usually entail. It was the ultimate "flextime," in that it depended on how flexible we felt each day, given deadlines, distractions, and workaholic crescendos.” IdeasHomeHandsJobsGivenFeltGoalHoursWorkViewsBreakImpossibleShareDrinkOfficeUltimateCoffeeEach DayGossipDistractionDesksFlexibleVaryDeadlineSnacksPajamasWorkaholicCrescendoGoofsOffice JobsCoffee Break Author:Diane Ackerman
“When I started swimming again two years ago, it felt like I was starting from scratch. My mind-set was [to tell myself that] every time I swam, it was going to get easier-and it did.

“I've always relied on discipline to achieve goals great and small. At a young age, my father instilled a real work ethic in me - and a fear of men. I always felt like if I didn't have a natural knack for something, I could kind of out-discipline the competition as it were. So I would always work as hard as I possibly could, sometimes to my own detriment and my personal life. For me, I think will power and discipline are very synonymous.” IfsThinkingMenKindRealSometimesHardAgeYoungFatherFeltGoalNaturalMy OwnAchieveDisciplineEthicsCompetitionPersonal LifeWork EthicYoung AgeWill PowerKnackReal WorkAchieving Goals Author:Ryan Reynolds

“I went to extreme measures to achieve my goals, from strapping heavy sandbags on my ankles, hopping on one leg, up and down four flights of stairs at 5 am to practice my turns in front of the candle light when others are asleep.

“Government programs aim at getting money for poor people. Our hope was that knowledge would in the long run be more useful, provide more money, and eventually strike at the system-causes of poverty. Government believes that poverty is just a lack of money. We felt, and continue to feel, that poverty is actually a lack of skill, and a lack of the self-esteem that comes with being able to take some part of one's life into one's own hands and work with others towards shared-call them social-goals.” PeopleFeelsBelieveLongSelfHandsGovernmentRunningAbleSocialFeltCausesGoalPoorPovertySelf EsteemSkillsProgramAimStrikesEsteemMore MoneyLong RunsPoor PeopleGet MoneyGovernment ProgramsCauses Of Poverty Author:Karl Hess
