Tim Ferriss Quote

My billboard would say this: Busy is a decision. Here’s why: Of the many, many excuses people use to rationalize why they can’t do something, the excuse I am too busy is not only the most inauthentic, it is also the laziest. I don’t believe in too busy. Like I said, busy is a decision. We do the things we want to do, period. If we say we are too busy, it is shorthand for not important enough.
