Oliver Berkman
Marielle: 我最近迷上了成为一个文艺复兴式女性的想法，想尝试很多事情，但意识到注意力是有限的。我们关注的东西最终构成了我们的人生，所以选择关注什么很重要。
Oliver Berkman: 我们只有大约4000周的时间，所以我们要认真思考如何利用我们的时间。
Karima Batts: 选择爱好或新项目时，先广泛考虑，再根据自身价值观、需求和生活缺失来缩小范围。要预先决定哪些事情可以暂时放弃，而不是在之后因为试图做所有事情而自责。专注于一个目标能更快完成，并带来成就感和独立感。
Leah Schaefer: 找到一个责任伙伴能帮助你更好地完成目标，一起设定目标，互相监督，共同进步。
Ayelet Fishbach: 在其他人面前，我们的行为更有意义，这有助于我们坚持目标。可以加入群体活动，例如跑步小组或读书会。
Cynthia Pong: 建立常规可以减少心理负担，使行为自动化，从而更容易地实现目标。
Jose Briones: 减少屏幕时间，并利用空闲时间进行有意识的休息和思考。减少干扰后，可以重新拾起以前放弃的兴趣爱好。
Dr. Stuart Brown: 专注于结果可能会让我们失去享受过程的乐趣。要允许自己尝试新事物，即使做得不好也没关系。

Ayelet Fishbach: 'One finding from her research is that in the presence of other people, our actions feel more meaningful to us.'
Cynthia Pong: 'She says another way to keep moving toward our goals is to create defaults in our lives.'
Jose Briones: 'Right after college, Jose found that his life had been overtaken by screens and he was spending all of his time passively.'
Dr. Stuart Brown: 'The quest for peak performance and peak focus can, if we're not careful, block us from experiencing life.'
