Insight
Taking things just a little further:
"Perhaps millions of people, in the last few thousand years, have had ideas for improving it. All I did was take things a little further than just having the idea."
— James Dyson, Against the Odds: An Autobiography by James Dyson

No episode in the history of The Knowledge Project has made a bigger impact than when Naval Ravikant appeared on the show in 2017. If you heard it when it originally aired, this is a good chance to listen to it again. If you've never heard of it, Naval's insights are a must-listen.
"You absolutely need habits to function. You cannot solve every problem in life as if it is the first time it's thrown at you."
Tiny Thoughts
1.
The difference between failure and success is often just staying with a problem a little longer.
One more rep.
One more step.
One more minute.
One more revision.
One more attempt.
The difference between average and outstanding is often just one more.

2.
If you see someone failing to take action, it tells you they don't know the cost of inaction.
Just because the cost of inaction is invisible doesn't mean it's not real.
What happens if you don't take action?
Nothing.
The cost of inaction is the status quo. If you're ok where you are, then you don't need to do anything. But if you want to get to the next level, you need to understand the cost of doing nothing.
Action is expensive, but inaction costs a fortune.

Level up work accountability:
"Being in the presence of other people who are also working can make you feel more accountable"
