Episode notes
Compounding Effects
- Mistakes compound and can lead to a downward spiral.
- Positive actions and corrections, however small, also accumulate over time.
Slow Progress
- Positive changes often accrue slowly, making progress hard to perceive initially.
- This slow progress can discourage continued effort, leading to stagnation.
Transformation Examples
- One day of gym shows no change, but 100 days transforms you.
- Similar transformations occur with guitar playing and writing after consistent effort.
