Up at 3:45 a.m., in Bed by 8:45 p.m.: How Apple's CEO Tim Cook Uses Energy Rituals to Optimize His Life

Time management: a hallmark interview question. A skill whose importance has been drilled into us by parents, teachers, and bosses. A seeming non-negotiable for a career (and life) well-lived. 

But what if we got it all wrong?

The issue is we focus too much on time management and not enough on energy management. The former relies on frequent, ad hoc planning of an irregular, finite resource (time). The latter relies on rituals.

Annual JCK Jewelry Show Returns To Set Global Trends, Showcase Innovation And Gather Over 17,000 Attendees From 130 Countries
“One can only hope that more major players in the gem and jewelry world start taking the climate challenge as seriously as LUSIX and SCS are doing,” noted John Pollard, Senior Director of Education at the International Gemological Institute (IGI). The largest organization of its kind, IGI operates 20 laboratory locations around the world that grade finished jewelry, natural diamonds, lab-grown diamonds and colored gemstones. Pollard sets the educational agenda for IGI’s 14 schools of gemology, which graduate thousands of supremely qualified jewelry professionals each year. “Today’s gem producers, designer, jewelers, manufacturers and gemological institutes will be judged by future generations on how our industry took action to lower global emissions,” he asserts. Pollard, who spoke on the JCK Talks “Responsible Sourcing” panel with Toby Pomeroy, founder of the international, non-profit Mercury Free Gold Mining organization, added, “There are many potentially viable solutions to the problem, which is why ongoing education and imparting actionable knowledge to our students, clients and the general public is key to IGI’s mission.”

Q&A: CAMOWORKS Founder Brad Beckerman On The Companys 3D Sculptures Of Grateful Dead, Jimi Hendrix And More
Beckerman: One hundred percent. The artists that we would do that are active still in their own right need to be modern icons. And whether those modern icons are like for instance, Wu-Tang, we\'re gonna be getting ready to do something.These are timeless, but like you\'ve mentioned Dead and Co, it\'s unbelievable what John Mayer has done for that whole band. He completely reinvigorated that, not to mention the audience. But there\'s certainly modern day icons, whether it be U2 or Willie Nelson, we\'re doing. He\'s still alive, obviously he\'s still a little bit of our older demographic. And later this year, we\'ll have Tupac coming out. And while he\'s no longer here, he\'s still relevant to a younger audience. But the types of artists that we would go on tour with, like someone like Pink. Pink has 39 million fans, and she\'s iconic when she had her pink hair and a certain look. We may do a limited edition image with her. We\'re also talking right now, as an example, with 21 Savage and Nas. So I\'m looking at these cultural icons, if you will, within their own space. So Nas, when it comes to rap music, he is one of the very few hip-hop artists today that have that kind of cache and following. And certainly from his lyrics and his abilities are second to none. And then you have people obviously like Dr. Dre or Jay-Z, Beyoncé, those sort of modern icons, if you will.
