John Wooden, one of the most revered coaches in the history of sports, on incremental progress:

"When you improve a little each day, eventually big things occur. When you improve conditioning a little each day, eventually you have a big improvement in conditioning.

That’s the only way it happens—and when it happens, it lasts."
