Deep dives

Linear vs. Residual Results

Linear results are one-time outputs that require effort proportional to the results. Examples include linear income, linear knowledge, and linear decision-making. On the other hand, residual results occur when effort is exerted once and benefits continue to flow without additional effort. Residual income, residual knowledge, and residual decision-making are examples of this concept. Residual results offer the potential for infinite returns and can be compared to compound interest.
