Much, much earlier in my career, I was always annoyed when I had to seek out information or clarification from an Executive in the companies I was working in. They always rushed me in, rushed to the point, and then rushed me out. As an ambitious youngster, I was frustrated that I couldn't grab more of their time.

Eventually, I came to realize they were doing the exact right thing. They were efficiently giving me the information I needed, then moving on to the next thing. They were also teaching me to maximize the effect of every moment of my time. I eventually learned time was more valuable than money and worked towards maximizing my time... and the time of others. Great tweets today! David

Such great comments David! I particularly appreciate that you really were able to see these interactions in hindsight through a more seasoned lens, and ingest the lessons. Thank you for sharing this.

Such a phenomenal saying...thanks for sharing it! Incredible that -> "Being super efficient and having free time is a High Value in this Society"...sounds like the best of both worlds.
