How much of a constraint is consistency space on agency?

The 4 hours aren't always 4. The energy you have in those 4 hours isn't always the same.

In payoff space, you can focus your energy for bursts of effort. Or you can focus your recharge/recovery times around your work.

The availability of rest after work likely affects how hard one is able/willing to work. The allure of rest is likely different.

Rest as an escape from work vs Rest as a place to prep for work

Athletes will perform differently in teams depending on if the system is built around them or they are recruited for the system; if the level of pressure is suited to their person; and if the coach is willing to be patient for them to adapt to their situation.

I'm reminded of that Mourinho press conference:

“Look at how they play, where they play, if they play”

Lots to ponder…

Excerpt: “Over the last 15 years, Excel has been unbundled into a host of other apps, such as Asana, Looker, and QuickBooks. But this unbundling was only possible once Excel became ubiquitous enough for users to know they wanted a purpose-made alternative. In order for that to happen, Excel needed widespread adoption with power users who began using it for niche workflows that it wasn’t originally designed to support.

…

Once those workflows were created, the power users realized that parts of their workflow were inefficient, or that features were missing for their use cases. They felt a need for purpose-built tools—and that became the opportunity for B2B SaaS to develop into a $327 billion market.”
