Random Observation/Comment #275: If something’s important to you, then you will make time.
Why This List?
The name of the list really gives it all away. Imagine you were stuck in a loop where each day you woke up repeating the same day and remembering what you did the day before. What would you learn if you were stuck in this endless loop? In the Groundhogs Day movie, Bill Murray learned how to play the piano and make ice sculptures with chain saws. Maybe I’d do something similar.
