This is a deceptively important point.  As I recall, there's all sorts of 
'psychology of decision making' research to back it up.' For those who know the 
reference to the frog in water that is gradually heated, this is a bit like that.

Making a decision to continue on a daily basis makes it more likely that there 
will be burnout than having to make it once every 2 years.
