"The Point of Life is Getting S**t Done and Being Happy"


Here at Lifehacker, we may not always look to musical acts for our productivity tips (though there are exceptions), but Kanye West might have just summed up the entire point of lifehacking in general.

Speaking to GQ, Kanye West dropped a number of memorable quotes. While some articles may have focused on some of the crazier things that Kanye says (and it's hard to find a celebrity that doesn't say something weird). However, one of the pulled quotes pretty succinctly sums up what we're all here for: get things done and be happy. The two feed into each other in a cycle (the more you get done, the happier you are with life, and the more you want to keep doing things). It's hard to get much simpler than that.
