We use the word busy far too often. We say it when friends ask us how we are doing, as if being busy is an emotion. It’s an excuse we use to procrastinate on unpleasant tasks. We use it to sound important at work, because being busy somehow equates to being successful. But you’re never too busy for 10 minutes, which is all it takes to improve yourself just a little each day.

Studs Terkel is a particular hero of mine. I like his name, his style, his association with jazz but also the way he wrote.

What is especially striking is that he saw himself as a chronicler of other people’s lives rather than a commentator on them.
