70% of business and professional people use a “to do” list on a regular basis to administer their “have to’s”.

20% of the average workday is spent on “crucial” and “important” things, while 80% of the average workday is spent on things that have “little” or “no” value.

It almost always takes twice as long to complete a task as what we originally thought it would take.

“Being successful doesn’t make you manage your time well. Managing your time well makes you successful.”

- Randy Pauschauthor, “The Last
