Quotes to ponder:

"It seems that the general paradigm shift at play here is one away from rigid control over your entire work day and toward one where you acknowledge a big part of your motivation is out of your control."

"Many times, however, I can’t stand the thought of it."

"The slump is the evil twin to the groove."
