Quality Over Quantity

You Can Always Come Back And Do More

Garth Beyer

When it comes to quality versus quantity, you can always come back and do more.

If your form sucks while working out, you’ll either be exhausted or injured before you think of upping the quantity of reps.

If your writing has to go through four rounds of edits before it’s good enough to put out there, your editor will be done with you before you get through half the chapters in your book.

If your deck presentation is putting your audience to sleep in the first few slides, what are the chances of them caring what you have to say by the time you get to slide 35?

It’s reassuring to me that nothing is stopping me from coming back and presenting a few more lifts, a few more words, a few more slides. In fact, people want you to when they see you’ve put quality first.

 

Stay Positive & Quality Not Over Quantity, Just Before It

Doing Something A Thousand Times

Garth Beyer

Many of us get ourselves stuck in a situation requiring repetition, monotony and banal movement. Think about something you’ve had to do a thousand times or even a hundred times. Data entry. Licking envelopes. Picking four-leaf clovers. Opening every e-mail to make sure you don’t mistake something important for junk.

What do you get out of it in the end? Is it just a task completed and you move on to something new? Or do you look back at a job well done and consider how it can be better done next time.

Often times you’ll realize it can be better done next time by not being done at all.
