Cover Quote: March 2014

Generally, the best way to make a difference is to think carefully about what to work on. I spend a lot of time thinking about what to work on next. If a project looks like it is going to fail or like it won’t have much impact, I drop it and devote more time to another project. That said, you should always be working on something. Everyone dreams of suddenly having a brilliant insight that instantly solves a major problem. That has never happened to me: insight only comes after I’ve worked on a problem for a long time, and I’ve never found the path from insight to impact a simple one.
