"If you improve by just 1 percent a day, in 70 days you’re twice as good."

[...]

"The good news and the bad news is that it takes only 1 percent a day, because while that sounds eminently achievable, it also denies you the excuse of volume, magnitude, and overwhelm. The sad reason that most people cannot make their dreams come true has more to do with procrastination than inability; delay rather than obstacle; lassitude instead of immovable objects."
