A Hour Of Thinking Can Save You A Decade Of Work

Balloon Festival. Iphone6s Prisma app

Life is easier when you know what you want

— but most people don’t take the time to figure out what they want.

It’s not that we are completely lost,

but our efforts are often slightly misdirected.

People will work for years and ultimately achieve a lifestyle that isn’t quite what they were hoping for

—often, simply, because they never clearly defined what they wanted.

An hour of thinking can save you a decade of work.

— James Clear
