Lists.

It's the idea of creating the space.

Mundane tasks like checklists free up space in our calendars and our heads for the artistry.

The Widget is the most visible part of a ‘successful’ person’s life. We can easily assume that it’s simply the product of an innate talent or instinct or gift that we don’t have.
 
Perhaps the only difference between successful people and the rest of us is that the former have a spark that motivates them to invest the time in things like checklists that release the oxygen that allows their spark to ignite into a flame that attracts the rest of us.

The rest of us who don’t have a Widget to inspire us to do the mundane ’10,000 hours of practice’ stuff.
 
Maybe if we can overcome the reputation of Checklists and Rules and Boundaries as compliance and elevate them to being a means of freeing us up to do the interesting stuff – then we’ll be onto something.
