Point a power hose at a rock and probably the most that’ll happen is the rock will get wet—maybe even move if the rock is small enough.
Leave that same rock under a dripping waterfall however… and after a few years, erosion will wear away at its seemingly impenetrable surface. Leave it there long enough and you might even see it drip its way all the way through the rock to the other side.
This is a strategy that works.
Sure, there’s a time and a place to blast at a seemingly impenetrable challenge with full force… but, more often than not—full force blasts fatigue and burn out before any noticeable change ever takes effect.
Drip, drip, drip, however? …With unrelenting consistency and over a long enough period of time? And no rock stands a chance.
P.s. If you appreciate these daily drips in the form of 1-minute emails, you can support my future work by buying me a coffee here. Thanks :)
