Obsessive work until we are alone and sick is clearly not the path. So everyone believes in some work / life balance (WLB).
I dream of world-changing impact without ever inconveniencing myself with any unpleasant task. That is just as unlikely as "working myself sick" is a bad idea. So we all also acknowledge that to make a real impact is going to take some effort.

We made it fast and affordable, so that more people could benefit.
One morning, December 7th, real life change for you.
Where are you struggling to optimize and prioritize?
