If The Ant Could Do It So Can You

"The reality was that many tiny ants had taken many tiny steps— one step at a time, one grain of sand at a time, one day at a time.  And voila! A city was built. It hit me and hit me hard. This entire amazing feat was really no more complex than one ant with one pebble. One step at a time, one grain at a time. Suddenly it became clear how to get a dissertation done: one grain of sand at a time; one brick at a time; one step at a time.  If the ant could do it, I could too."
