In order to train like a professional athlete or have the routine of a highly productive person or to learn like a master student, we need to not just know and copy what these people are doing today.

That is not likely to work for us and turn us into being as good as they are.

Instead, we should do things that helps us take one step forward in that direction.

The path may have gotten more longer and complicated now than what these people we look up to took.

That is inevitable. 

All we can do is to take the next step in the direction we need to go in.

Nobody can jump to the destination.
