Tom Peters famously coined the phrase, excellence is the next five minutes. He was making the point that success in the long term is the accumulated result of lots of small often barely noticeable actions and events. Overnight successes and instant innovations are a fiction, they are the result of a combination of things coming together, the accumulated outcome of a series of incremental steps to move in a chosen direction over a period of time. This truth also applies to tragedy and instances of preventable patient harm, which are often also the accumulated logical and hence largely predictable result of a build up of unresolved unaddressed issues.
