On Type A Personality Limitations

“Let us each examine his thoughts; he will find them wholly concerned with the past or the future. We almost never think of the present, and if we do think of it, it is only to see what light it throws on our plans for the future. The present is never without end. The past and the present are our means, the future alone our end. Thus we never actually live, but hope to live, and since we are always planning how to be happy, it is inevitable that we should never be so.” --Pascal’s Pensees

Just food for thought. Mostly for myself. A reminder that my value is not dependent on my slightly neurotic attachment to to-do lists.
