day by day by day

I can’t write enough about incrementalism.

The classic proverb asks: how do you eat an elephant?

One bite at a time.

I have been writing and creating and writing and making and writing and posting. If I went back in time a year to when I set out on this little writing life adventure and looked out upon the quantity of work that I have banked in the intervening year, I know I would be completely overwhelmed.

Think of what you can accomplish just doing a little bit each day or even each week.

If you record ten seconds of video every day for a year, by the end of the year you will have over an hour of footage.

If you open a document and write one paragraph of one hundred words per day every day for a year you will have a document over thirty six thousand words long.

If you post one thing online a day every day for a year, you will have over three hundred and sixty posts at the end.

Incrementalism. One bite at a time.
