Description
I launched a product a day and burned out 17 days in, because the habit counted launches and rewarded nothing else. An Output Habit counts what you finish and an Input Habit counts the time you put in. Bill Atkinson, Jonathan Coulton and Ed Whitlock show what each one rewards, and three questions pick the type for your own habits.
Featuring: Bill Atkinson, Jonathan Coulton, Ed Whitlock, Upton Sinclair, Andy Hertzfeld
