How To Work Like a Lion and Take Most of The Week Off
Why Naval Ravikant suggests high octane work sprints
“We’d like to view the world as linear, which is, I’m gonna put in eight hours of work, I’m gonna get back eight hours of output, right? Doesn’t work that way. Guy running the corner grocery store is working just as hard or harder than you and me. How much output is he getting?…Outputs are non-linear based on the quality of the work that you put in. The right way to work is like a lion.” — Naval Ravikant
Minimum effort, maximum reward. That’s the holy grail, isn’t it? The gold we are all searching for as entrepreneurs.

I admit it — I’m lazy. I love writing, and I love working, but I don’t want to do it all the time. I live up to my star sign, the Leonine Lion of the zodiac.
