It feels good to be productive.

In the industrial world we have the problem of having more productive capacity than we know what to do with. That's at the root of the unemployment crisis: we've got so productive at making things, we don't require people to be involved in making the basics of life any more. Or nearly as many people.

You don't have to get things done all the time to be productive.

Once you get into the habit of work, you can be more productive in the things you want to do.

We must make working life more human.

We will reinvent productivity to empower every person and every organization on the planet to do more and achieve more.

Being productive gives people a sense of satisfaction and fulfillment that loafing never can.

It takes as much energy to wish as it does to plan.

All of us want to be better. Human nature is always seeking advancement.

We cannot perform our tasks to the best of our power, unless we think well of our own capacity.
