Q: My friend believes that if you take a single vitamin, you will be just a little healthier than if you never had taken one. Or if you park a car inside a garage only two or three times, its body will be in better condition than if you hadn't, even if the difference is so small you can't see it. His reasoning is that something is always better than nothing. I disagree. What do you think?
A: I think he's wrong. The difference must be large enough to matter in some way - any way - or nothing is "better." Something has been lost: time. Whether your friend is taking a vitamin or parking his car, he is spedning precious time - which is a limited resource - and maybe money. Too many people spend time and money pursuing lots of goals just a little.
