In my experience, highly successful people struggle less
than the rest of us. They simplify and organize their lives.
They know that the wonderful distractions of the
moment detract from long-term achievement and ultimate
pleasure, so they make conscious choices about where to
spend their time and their energy. They struggle less, and
can perhaps be accused of living simple or one-dimensional
lives, but in the areas that MATTER to them, they achieve
more, and we can all learn from that.
