Or a lot… depending on how many checklists and guides you’re collecting and keeping unread somewhere in your laptop or phone… People who are obsessed with manuals are often not looking for knowledge. They are looking for...
Look at the difference: Saying “it’s about intelligence” feels much harder than saying “it’s about learning something.” Saying “it’s about discipline” feels very different from saying “it’s about giving it more time.” Saying “it’s about luck” is one movie. Saying “it’s about trying as many times as necessary” is a completely different one. Different versions, of the same thing: “I won’t be able to do it.” vs “I’m not able to do it yet.” “My client is not like that.” vs “My current client is...
