“Somewhere there waiteth in this world of ours For one lone soul another lonely soul, Each choosing each through all the weary hours, And meeting strangely at one sudden goal, Then blend they, like green leaves with golden flowers, Into one beautiful and perfect whole; And life's long night is ended, and the way Lies open onward to eternal day.” WorldWayLoveLongSoulWholeBeautifulLyingNightGoalHoursPerfectThis WorldFlowerEternalLonelyGreenMeetingsGoldenWearyLoneLong NightsGreen Leaves Author:Edwin Arnold

“I write 3-4 days a week, 4-5 hours at a time (with lots of breaks). My goal is 2000 words when I sit down to write and usually, I hit that, though it can take anywhere from 3-7 hours to get there.

“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
“To go in the direction that I went takes a lot of work. And I don't think you can do the work - the five or six hours of working out a day - if you don't have a clear goal or know why you're doing it.

“The practice sessions of aspiring champions have a specific and never-changing purpose: Progress.

“You yourself create all your misery, hour after hour, day after day. You think the goal justifies the means, even the vile means. You are wrong: The goal is in the path on which you arrive at it. Every step of today is your life of tomorrow. No great goal can be reached by vile means. That you have proven in every social revolution. The vileness or inhumanity of the path to the goal makes you vile or inhuman, and the goal unattainable.” ThinkingMeanTodaySocialGoalHoursStepsPathRevolutionTomorrowMiseryJustifyProvenEvery StepInhumanInhumanityUnattainableSocial RevolutionAfter Hours Author:Wilhelm Reich
“Learning to pause is the first step in the practice of Radical Acceptance. A pause is a suspension of activity, a time of temporary disengagement when we are no longer moving toward any goal ... The pause can occur in the midst of almost any activity and can last for an instant, for hours or for seasons of our life ...
