Compounding is something so substantial! You can do it with notes (Compounding Note-Taking), money, and in life (Principles). It is slow, but it’s the right way to grow.
An interesting thought came up with my wife on 2024-01-30: Not only can the above positive things compound, but also negative emotions. e.g., not talking about what you feel or something big in your life, like a crisis, but you avoid it. The consequences of not talking about it might be minor, but they compound over time. It could be as bad as you get a Manie. The longer, the worse.

Albert Einstein called the eighth wonder of the world. “He who understands it, earns it. He who doesn’t, pays it.

Less is More. Don’t feed the algorithms. Quality beats quantity. Just keep going; over time, it. Be authentic; be you. If it won’t work out, at least you had fun and learnt something. Me on selling yourself.
# Fame comes from consistency that compounds
Rory Sutherland on consistency
Having a brand is playing the mode of capitalizing on easy mode. Brand building is like a Pension. It’s a compounding effect. What most people miss about marketing, YT.
More so, Success I’d call a life worth overnight fame. Because people see it as overnight success, but forget that you work all your life on it. It’s the compounding effect at its peak.
# Domains
Same with working on my domain with all My Subdomains (Website).
«Knwowledge compounds over time»:
This subdomain’s ecosystem reflects my passion for learning and creating. It may seem like a lot, but it’s consistent, incremental work.—Everything is hosted on my simple hosting server from 20 years back, either through my website (GoHugo), Book (mdBook), Second Brain (Quartz), or Newsletter (Listmonk).
I consider myself a slow writer and thinker. I’ve learned that knowledge compounds over time. That’s why I encourage everyone to invest in their own domain. Even if you’re not ready to create a website, pointing your Substack or WordPress to it allows you to start building up.
Start small. The compounding effect of consistent effort shouldn’t be underestimated and is super powerful. How do you organize your ideas, notes, and knowledge? What methods have worked best for you?
