Day 310 - Sanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results https://golifelog.com/posts/sanity-is-doing-the-same-thing-over-and-over-and-expecting-different-results-1636167761736
“When chance plays a big role, the definition of sanity is doing the same thing over and over, and expecting a different result” – @dvassallo
Doing the same thing over and over is insanity, yes, but only in predictable environments. Because the environmental inputs are always the same, so we can’t expect different outputs. That’s the caveat no one mentioned, ever.
So in stochastic environments, doing the same thing over and over is not insanity, but sanity.
So consistency won’t work in such environments. 1% compounding won’t work. Routine and rituals won’t work. Like in marketing. Like in entrepreneurship.
Read that again.
And again.
Burn it into your mind.
