Thanks @Antifragile for bringing up this concept.
One thing does pique my curiosity - how would you utilize this concept practically without spending too much time on small details rather than larger things that matter?
My immediate thinking was in a combination of Gary Keller's One Thing book and the aggregation of marginal gains.
The one thing(s) come first, small details and 1% improvements second.
How do you think about this?

This concept added a new variable to my productivity equation -
Deep Work + The ONE Thing + Repetition Of The Ordinary + Aggregation Of Marginal Gains
Mike,
Good question. On the surface looks like they are conceptually opposite.
Yet, I think they are identical!
If “The One Thing” is about removing any kind of multitasking, then we will be faster at hitting 1% gains across the board over and over again. Why? Because - no distractions. There is plenty of science on this. The whole book (in my mind & oversimplifying it big time) can be summarized by “don’t multitask”. But it doesn’t mean we shouldn’t know all the things we should do. Have a list of things to try, experiment, tinker etc.
