    “Two is twice as good as one, but one is infinitely better than zero.

    • One minute of making sales calls is infinitely better than zero minutes.
    • One minute of meditation is infinitely better than zero minutes.
    • One minute of writing is infinitely better than zero minutes.

    Sure, it might be ideal to spend an hour doing these things, but one minute gets you in the game. Now you’re learning. Now you’re improving. Now results are possible. One doesn’t seem like much, but it’s something real. At zero, you’re still dreaming.”

    James Clear

      “A paradox of life is that the greatest returns come in the long-term, but the opportunity cost of moving slowly is huge. Long-term thinking is not slow acting. Act fast on things that compound. Never let a day pass without doing something that will benefit you in a decade.”

        “On the ground, a rock is just a rock. But when moving at high speed through the atmosphere, a rock becomes a meteor—alive with fire and burning bright. People are not so different. Without activity, we are lifeless and dull. When moving fast and taking action, we come alive.”

          “The teacher learns more than the student. The author learns more than the reader. The speaker learns more than the attendee. The way to learn is by doing.”

            “Whenever you are stuck searching for the optimal plan, remember: Getting started changes everything.”

              Gerhard Richter Quote on Ideas and How They Won’t Come to You—You Have To Find Them

                “It is a danger to wait around for an idea to occur to you.  You have to find the idea.”

                Gerhard Richter, via Daily Rituals

                Beyond the Quote (Day 413)

                Ideas are the treasure of your mind. They represent pockets of overlapping information that have the potential to yield a valuable return. And like treasure, they’re revealed only through motion, activity, disruption—never the opposite. Treasure is buried. It’s hidden away. It’s off the beaten path. It doesn’t just lay itself on the front door of your mind. It’s only discovered in the depths of your consciousness. It doesn’t come to you; you go to it.

                Quote on Starting Where You Are With What You Have—Even With Fear, Pain, and Doubt.

                  “Start now. Start where you are. Start with fear. Start with pain. Start with doubt. Start with hands shaking. Start with voice trembling, but start. Start and don’t stop. Start where you are, with what you have. Just… Start.”

                  What makes you think starting later is going to be any better than starting now? What makes you think the fear or pain or doubt or trembling won’t be there later just as much (if not more) than it is now? What makes you think starting is ever going to be easier? How about we call your desire to do later that which you could do now what it actually is: procrastination.

                  Tony Robbins Quote on Doing What You Know Because Knowing What To Do Isn’t Enough

                    “It not knowing what to do, it’s doing what you know.”

                    Tony Robbins

                    Beyond the Quote (286/365)

                    While common sense is common (although some might argue), common sense is not common practice. I find it to be true more and more every day that what we are lacking in the world isn’t more solutions. Solutions are plentiful. What we’re lacking is execution of solutions. What we’re lacking is people’s ability to choose to do what’s hard over what’s convenient and expedient. What we’re lacking is the will, work ethic, and wherewithal required to bring the viable solutions that have already been thought up, to life—to our lives. Or is there more to it than just that?
