words to live by

“What focus means is saying ‘No’ to something that you—with every bone in your body—you think is a phenomenal idea. And you wake up thinking about it. But you say ‘No’ to it, because you’re focusing on something else.”

“December is the toughest month of the year. Others are July, January, September, April, November, May, March, June, October, August, and February.”

—Attributed to Mark Twain (no one seems to know for sure if he actually said this, but in any case it’s a good line)
