Found on a scrap of paper on my desk:

"Do all your work as though you had a thousand years to live, and as you would if you knew you must die tomorrow."

Wait a minute, does that mean don't bother working hard? If I had 1000 years to go or I was gonna die tomorrow, hard work would seem pointless.

Hmm. Good point. I think she meant to be thorough, efficient, and hard-working... but the "Oh, fuck it all" reaction could definitely work, too. :-D
