Chain, Chain, Chain

Day 32

I’ve tried to remember when I first heard about Jerry Seinfeld and The Chain .  This much I do know: I had planned to start a number of Seinfeld-inspired chains on January 1, 2010, and I’m pleased that some of them are unbroken.

There’s another theory that could be a corollary of  The Chain.  Author Malcom Gladwell says you’ve got to put 10,000 hours  into any sustained effort in order to produce master-level results.

I’m not intentionally racking up mastery hours (they’re a bonus) but I’m finding The Chain to be a very satisfying discipline in this year of abandoning my usual disciplines.
