And the answer is, “Yes! I run the world’s biggest honeypot for teenage idiots who want to post pics of themselves racing on a freeway with a suspended license and a beer in the cupholder.”
I suspect the answer is “making as much money as I possibly can”, and he’s doing much better than all of us. He can convert that to other forms of value later.
Actually, this book, which is where I found the quote, demonstrates how much of a social and political impact Facebook really has. It’s definitely an interesting read.
Or no, because someone has to take care of minor stuff too, and some of it has to be done personally. No one manages to do important stuff all the time.
Pretty close to Lakein’s Question: “What is the best use of my time right now?” (from Alan Lakein’s How to Get Control of Your Time and Your Life, 1973).
I found this quote brilliant solely because of the incongruous “like” in there. It makes the whole thing turn into a Deep Mystery instead of a Deep Saying.
After all, wouldn’t someone who does the important things also stick to the most important words, ie those with content, unlike “like”? If so, how delightful is the erroneous arrogance of this quote! If not, what a fascinating challenge to my assumptions about the implications of language pattern!

The key is to neglect the minor stuff until it becomes important to do it!
That only works if the effort stays the same and the cost of neglect are acceptable.
I usually shower before it becomes necessary, and brush my teeth from time to time.
I’ve found that mindset is really bad for meeting deadlines.
