What Bode was saying was this: “Knowledge and productivity are like compound interest.” Given two people of approximately the same ability and one person who works ten percent more than the other, the latter will more than twice outproduce the former.

這段改編自 2010 年 3 月 6 日的對話。
（安：言歸正傳，我想問的是，假設我已經肯定「選對了結婚對象」，我如何「籌備好婚禮」呢？
換句話說，假設我的人生目標大方向已經正確，我應該如何執行那些細節？我應該用什麼時間管理策略，去處理那些事務性質工作？）
以前不是討論過嗎？單單是今天，我們就已經談及過很多相關的東西。
基本上，近乎所有「時間管理問題」，都和「人生問題」有關；近乎所有「人生問題」，都可以看成「時間管理問題」。
（安：為什麼呢？）
例如，你以前問我，如何和很難相處的人相處？我答，最好的方法是，不要和那種人相處。
不與難相處的人相處，你就可以節省大量時間，去與容易相處的人相處。你的人生會快樂幾倍。
這個既可以說是「人生問題」，又可以說是「時間管理問題」。
另外，你可以想一想，今天的話題之中，有哪些是和「事務性質工作的時間管理」沒有關係的呢？
其實很少。
當你自我管理得宜，妥善處理那些人生問題，很多時候，你原本的時間管理問題會自動消失。
（安：這對我來說，是一個全新的角度。「事務問題」，原來就即是「人生問題」。）

Modern computer chips handle data at the mind-blowing rate of some 10^13 bits per second. Neurons, by comparison, fire at a rate of around 100 times per second or so. And yet the brain outperforms the best computers in numerous tasks.
One reason for this is way computations take place. In computers, calculations occur in strict pipelines, one at a time.
In the brain, however, many calculations take place at once. Each neuron communicates with up to 1000 other neurons at any one time. And since the brain consists of billions neurons, the potential for parallel calculating is clearly huge.

Mara: “You who go where others dare not; Will you be my God? The architect of my house?”
Siddharta: “Finally I meet the illusion of self; Your evil house will not be built again.”
Mara: “But you live in me; I am your house.”
Siddharta: “O, trickster; phantom of my own ego, you are pure illusion. You, self, do not exist. The earth is my witness to this Supreme Enlightenment.”
