[I]t is the consistent daily action that builds extraordinary outcomes... Skipping one day makes it easier to skip the next.

A recent New Yorker article quotes singer Tony Bennett on his practice regimen as saying "The first day you don't do the scales, you know. The second day, the musicians know. The third day, the audience knows."




I've heard this saying but in the context of martial arts. "The first day you don't practice, you know. The second day, your coach knows. Third day, your competitors know" I wonder what about origin of this saying.
