QUOTES BY Tim Firris


Doing something unimportant well does not make it important.

Lack of time is lack of priorities. 

Focus on impact, not approval. 

The most important actions are never comfortable.

No hurry, no pause. 

I want to measure twice, and cut once; therefore, the vast majority of my important work is deciding what to work on. 

I’m building a snowball the size of continents. The catch: it sometimes moves at a glacial pace. Big things take time, but that’s OK – almost nothing can stop a glacier from moving once it reaches critical mass.

My definition of luxury has changed over time. Now, it’s not about owning a lot of stuff. Luxury, to me, is feeling unrushed.

Emergencies are seldom that.
