As beautiful as that is, and as much as I want it to be true, it might not necessarily be true that personal growth can be compounded so easily. It very well may be nearly linear.

I upvoted anyways though, because it really is beautiful.

I like this comparison. When did you formulate this? Was it after a specific event - did you struggle with determining how to cope with what you needed to do? This seems to show that small yet sustained perseverance to change each day is the simplest key to compounding personal growth.

Reminded me of Hamming and Bode saying "Knowledge and productivity are like compound interest." http://www.cs.virginia.edu/~robins/YouAndYourResearch.html
