I am surprised no one has quoted something from Steve Blank http://steveblank.com/2009/06/18/epitaph-for-an-entrepreneur... "Work Smarter Not Harder As I got older I began to realize that how effective you are is not necessarily correlated with how many hours you work. My ideas about Customer Development started evolving around these concepts. Eric Ries’s astute observations about engineering and Lean Startups make the same point. I began to think how to be effective and strategic rather than just present and tactical."
