**Without structure, we tend to revert to default behaviors** according to our environment and circumstances. This may be okay when you're already "good enough" in a given domain (see: [[Satisficing]]), but it doesn't really allow for any sort of personal growth to take place. Sometimes [[Good is the Enemy of Great]]. > [!tip] _**Structure provides the needed framework around which improvements can be built**_. If you want to [[Build On Yourself]] you have to pick up where you left off last time, not start from scratch each time. You need a standard place to incorporate improvements (see: [[Standardization Enables Creativity]] and [[Periodic Reviews]]). Structure allows for the repetition and accumulation of marginal gains to happen often enough to get [[Traction]] to make a real difference (see: [[Habits Have Compounding Returns]]). **** # More ## Source Me ## Related - [[Standardization Enables Creativity]] - [[Habit Loop]] - [[Periodic Reviews]]
