I really liked this. I thought the little graphics were a nice touch. And the idea is one of those ones that seems almost obvious in retrospect, but wasn’t obvious at all before reading the post. Looking back I can see hints of it in thoughts I’ve had before, but that’s not the same as having had the idea. And the handle (“point of easy progress”) is memorable, and probably makes the concept more actionable (it’s much easier to plan a project if you can have thoughts like “can I structure this in such a way that there is a point of easy progress, and that I will hit it within a short enough amount of time that it’s motivating?”).
