- exact: the work that needs to be done is not a finite list of tasks, it is a
neverending stream. Clothes are always getting worn down, food is always getting
eaten, code is always in motion. The goal is not to finish all the work before

Instead of struggling to reach the end of the stream, simply focus on moving
along it.
