Many people tell themselves they will carry out various plans when they have the time, or after they retire, but, he argues, if you don't work at managing your recreational life when you are young, even when you retire with plenty of time and money, you won't be able to really enjoy life, but will simply end your days pointlessly killing time.
他表示，很多人都推說等自己有時間或退休後，就可以實現某些計畫，但「若不從年輕時開始努力經營休閒生活，就算到退休，有了時間、金錢，也不會徹底享受生活，只有在漫無目標的生活中結束了自己的人生。」
