The difference between success and failure is usually how much effort we’re willing to put in. Going an extra mile (or 10), putting in the hours and the reps. Pushing beyond “good enough”.
That difference usually isn’t due to the brilliance of the thinking, the uniqueness of the idea, the pedigree of the workers. It’s much more likely a result of a lot of extra sweat.
It shouldn’t be surprising that success isn’t easy. So take another minute to ask a few more questions. Push yourself a little further. Game things out another step or three. Because good enough rarely is.
