100% is Easy, 99% is Hard

Success is far more likely when you are fully committed!

It doesn’t matter if it is about passing a certification, running, writing a book, or anything else.

Here is quick video of me after a have just completed running 20+ miles a week for 140 weeks in a row. Why? Because my health matters.

When something matters, whether it is professional, personal, or something else, 100%, being committed, makes a difference!

If you are doing 99% percent it is easy to slip to 98%, 97%, 80%, and much much lower!

Constant effect, even though progress may not always seem 100% upwards, is easy with some commitment.

Not trivial, but much easier than 99%!

If you have a job and lose it, you are unemployed – it’s binary: “job” or “no job.” And unfortunately people lose their jobs, especially during difficult times.

Consultants typically have multiple clients. If you lose a client, you still have others. Typical consultants have 3-6 clients per year. If one client doesn’t have any work for you, perhaps they “fire” you, go out of business, or are having a difficult time, you still have work from other clients.
