Freeze the Design

18

Perfectionists(完美主义者) can waste just as much time as procrastinators(拖拉者) . Thomas R. Williams, former chairman of Wachovia Corporation, discovered that many young people in banking don't know when to stop researching a project and start wrapping it up. Those trainees could have learned something from engineers, who are taught to produce the best possible solution by a certain date. Even if a design is not perfect, they've done the best they could under deadline.

Whenever you streamline a task or eliminate a hassle, you don't just save time. You make your life more pleasant. "Dost thou love life?" Benjamin Franklin once said. "Then do not squander time, for that's the stuff life is made of."
