**Slow burns are easier, more sustainable, and can produce better results.** Heavy Lifts and Slow Burns are two ways to approach large Projects/goals. **Heavy Lifts** are done essentially all at once.

They don't wear you out, at the expense of producing results more slowly. Slow burns utilize the [[Sweet Spot 🎯]].
