Quotes to ponder:

"When you get a task done in an efficient manner like that, you get the full reward of the accomplishment, with none of the extra non-rewarding guilt and time suck that comes along with procrastination."

"That simple change of going from “get something done”, to “get as much done as you can within a fixed time limit with a counter” makes all the difference for me."

"Getting a whole bunch of great work done in a short time is a worthwhile goal for any worker."
