Steve Jobs once described the difference between good work and great work with a simple image:“When you’re a carpenter making a beautiful chest of drawers, you’re not going to use a piece of plywood on the back, even though it faces the wall and nobody will ever see it. You’ll know it’s there, so you’re going to use a beautiful piece of wood on the back. For you to sleep well at night, the aesthetic, the quality, has to be carried all the way through.”That idea has always stuck with me. It

2025/12/22

There’s an old fable I love about a villager trying to catch a monkey.He doesn’t use force. He doesn’t set a net. He doesn’t try to chase it.Instead, he hooks a single coconut to the side of his house, drills a small hole in it, and places a few morsels of food inside.That evening at dusk, the monkey quietly slips into the village. It sees the coconut, smells the food, and slips its open hand into the hole.It feels the food and grabs hold of it excitedly. But when it tries to remove its
