Pay attention

A rule for cleaning - but it applies to all of life as well…

10. Pay attention. Almost everything will fall into place if you do. Don’t think about the revisions in the tax code. Or anything else. In Latin: Age quod agis — “Do what you are doing.”

    True, true, true. From Nadia Boulanger: “Life is denied by the lack of attention, whether it be to cleaning windows or trying to write a masterpiece.”
