I received this super thoughtful message over the weekend.  
It said "I haven't been on your website for a bit but I really love the new format. It definitely has a magical feel."

[Insert blushing face emoji here]

People are so helpful.
Also, the people who point out the typos and the broken links and all of the flaws that are still there and are helpful too.
It's a work in progress, for sure.

The changes in my website are a result of the
The Diderot Effect applied to habits.

For those of you who don't know - the Diderot Effect is this phenomenon where buying one new things leads to a slew of other purchases. 

We recently got a new couch which lead to a new area rug which lead to new throw pillows which lead to a new blanket, etc, etc. 
It happens when you paint a room and then realize all the light switches look really dingy and that the ceiling fan is outdated and the carpet needs cleaning. 
ETC, ETC, ETC.

That's the Diderot Effect in action.

But.... when applied to habits, it is a superpower.
I joined a gym which lead me to run a 10k with the gym members which lead me to a half-marathon all within six months.
ETC, ETC. ETC

The compliment that I got on my website is because last year I had my logo redesigned (for $30!).  This lead to changing all the colors on the website which lead to updating the pages which lead to updating the course platform which leads me to today where I am still updating other things.
Every time I look at the website, I see something else that needs fixing or changing.  Every time I update one thing, it creates a chain reaction of other things that can be improved upon.
And also....I can look back and see that it was a thousand little tweaks over time that got me to this particular piece of feedback.

Use the Diderot Effect as your superpower. 
It's the first domino in a chain of dominos that can give you amazing results.
It's the 1% progress that adds up over time.

Warning:  You are likely to have some regret that pops up once you get started though. Because the results are so great, you are likely to have moments where you wish you had started a long time ago.
You will notice that other people are hundred (or a thousand) dominoes ahead of you.

Use that as motivation, not as grief. 
Look at what others are doing
as evidence of what is possible in the future.
Do not let it distract you from what you are working on though.
Be kind to yourself and focus on where you are going instead.

Think about how you can apply the Diderot Effect to something that you've always wanted to do. 
It's pretty magical what can happen when you do.
