If you can only read one article during the weekend, make sure you read Jeffrey Kalmikoff’s post on working smarter and harder. No wonder Threadless is such a successful business.

I escape 9-5 by working 8 to 8. I work weekends. When I’m not working, I’m thinking about work. Sound bad? Maybe we have different ideas of what work is. Work has no negative connotations to me. It’s equally rewarding as it is inspiring; equally exciting as it is relaxing. I always have my eye on the prize: making things better all the time for our company, for our community and for our customers. It’s not that I have no life, hustlers are expert life-multitaskers. They recognize that ideas or opportunities can arise at any time, and they’re always prepared.

Coincidentally, a few weeks ago I posted another quote on the same topic.
