What if the secret to being successful is not following any steps and just doing what needs to be done. I'm starting to think that the only reason we tend to want to follow steps is because we were taught like that from school, books, etc. โ because there's no logical way to explain chaos.
Excerpt from Timothy Snyder's "On Tyranny:" "1. Do not obey in advance." "Most of the power of authoritarianism is freely given.

A citizen who adapts in this way is teaching power what it can do."

One annoying thing about historical research is looking up how long it took to get from A to B in the US by train in 1880 and then looking it up now and realizing it was faster in 1880.
"That's better!"
