The Power of Basics

Success lies in doing the little things well.

1. "Basics" are not Basic

The more I learn, the more I realize there’s an inherent power in Doing the Basic Things Well. 

Fun Story – There was a time when Newborn babies dying right after birth was really high. 

Doctors wondered what caused this problem. 🤔

It turns out, the babies were dying out of an infection because the doctors didn’t wash their hands between surgeries and deliveries. 

Washing hands, from then on became the norm in hospitals. 

Babies stopped dying. 😌

2. The Power of Basics

We often think we are too good for the little things.

We consider them lesser than us. 🤷

That we are too advanced. 

But are we? 🤔

If we are not doing the little basic things well, what’s the point of advanced strategies.


So reminder to self : Ask What Basic/Little thing I can do well right now?

What are the “Basics” of my life?

3. Favourite Quote of the Week

“Modern man can’t see God because he doesn’t look low enough”

– Carl Jung

That’s it for this week folks.
See you in the next one 🙂

Best
