A friend wondered how come a coworker managed to do so much.

I got to talk with him (not on this topic), and I got the impression that he puts different priorities and goals into his life.

Maybe we spend more time playing, getting out with friends, or maybe he has a life (and a wife) that allows him to spend part of his free time doing other things, those same things that we see as a result.

He managed to do this while having a job, while doing his best at his job and still having a mind presence very hard to find in other people.

Side note: Writing in e-prime seems more difficult than I expected. Many of the natural thoughts I have uses the “to be” verb that I cannot replace very easily, at least for now.

I wonder if this will reduce my writing skill or will improve it.
