Success isn’t linear, there is a valley of disappointment then an upshoot.Īll big things come from small beginnings.
To make a meaningful difference, habits have to persist through the Plateau of Latent Potential. Bamboo spends 5 years growing underground, then shoots up “overnight” Breakthroughs are due to many previous actions built up. But at 32, it starts to melt = breakthrough. An ice cube won’t melt aat 29, 30, 31 degrees. Knowledge compounds: reading doesn’t teach you something new but gives you different ways to think about old ideas. What matters is whether your habits are putting you on the path toward success…you get what you repeat. It doesn’t matter how successful or unsuccessful you are right now. It takes 2–5–10 years to see the value or cost of habits Habits multiply like money with compound interest. Too often, we convince ourselves that massive success requires massive action. It is so easy to overestimate the importance of one defining moment and underestimate the value of making small improvements on a daily basis.
