The professional concentrates on the work and allows rewards to come or not come, whatever they like. The amateur spends their time obsessing over the outcome, while the master spends their time inside the process."

We want the wisdom of the philosopher without the hours of reading, and the peace of the monk without the discipline of silence.

If you want to predict where you will end up in life, all you have to do is follow the curve of your tiny, daily gains or losses, and see how your small choices compound over ten or twenty years."

We daydream about the applause, the finished book, the podium, and the wealth. But the reality of achievement is entirely unglamorous.
