- If you do something you enjoy, you'll naturally devote more of your brain power/energy to it, and you'll get better and better.
- Says you're going to spend one-third of your life at work; if you don't like your job, it turns into torture.
- Believes that taking on the big challenges at work often leads to bigger rewards down the line.
