More From Malcolm Gladwell

Success is how you collect your minutes. you spend millions of minutes to reach one triumph, one moment, then you spend maybe a thousand minutes enjoying it. if you were unhappy through those millions of minutes, what good is the thousand minutes of triumph? it doesn't equate... life is made of small pleasures. good eye contact over the breakfast table with your wife. a moment of touching a friend. happiness is made of those tiny successes. the big ones come too infrequently. if you don't have all those zillions of tiny successes, the big ones don't mean anything.

I am a buyer of blank books. kids find it interesting that i would buy a blank book. they say, twenty-six dollars for a blank book! why would you pay that? the reason i pay twenty-six dollars is to challenge myself to find something worth twenty-six dollars to put in there. all my journals are private, but if you ever got hold of one of them, you wouldn't have to look very far to discover it is worth more than twenty-six dollars

Cultivate your own garden and let go of your tendency to examine and judge how others cultivate theirs. catch yourself in moments of gossip about how others ought to be living and rid yourself of thoughts about how they should be doing it this way, or how they have no right to live and think as they do. stay busy and involved in your own projects and pursuits.
