I love the line "Inspiration is like a flaky friend who borrows money and never texts back." If you have to wait for inspiration to get to work, you'll end up alone and broke.
Love the humour in this important message ☺️ reading this felt like listening to a friend.. 🌷"A bad workout is still infinitely better than a good excuse."
Such a great reminder! Showing up is about 80% of it… and it’s helpful to remove the pressure that you have to be at your best each and every time. More often than not, a little something is better than a whole lot of nothing!
Simply showing up for consistency's sake adds a new layer to the old proverb "we are what we repeatedly do. Excellence is not an act, but a habit."
Maybe we should stop belittling the minimally-viable days as wasted effort. Instead, we should celebrate them for making us available for the maximum-effort days to come.
I’ve instilled this philosophy this past year! 50% effort is better than not showing up! And in most cases, those 50% days seemed to be my best days, because the effort increases as I get into it! Nice post!

A.V. - I like that line: "A bad workout is still infinitely better than a good excuse."
Showing up on those days that you're not feeling it keeps the momentum. If you give in to your excuses, you legitimize them and give them power over you.
The most important battle between success and failure takes place inside your head.

I read this and was like: welcome to the hooood 😄
Anyway, this is how I've been working. This year, planning on launching a consultancy on Consistency Without AI, to show people how to show up rather than wait for that stroke of genius. Let it find you on the road.

Do not act when you feel ready.
Act when it is right.
Character is forged on the days when will is absent.

Exactly. Just a little bit everyday- that’s the motto. That’s how we attempt the greatest things.
just keep the IV drip running👏🏼
bit by bit mila :)
I feel like people gt consistent with those work which they really passionate about
That’s very true.
I agree! Showing up is better than perfection.

Yes I like alll of this! Peace to all today 😌🤘🏾
Show up especially when it’s hard.
Yes, lasting progress is built by minimum sustainable effort.
High standards matter, but the system survives on low-friction defaults when your mood clocks off.

For years, I had displayed it in my internist's office, where I would see it, be reassured by it, while I was seeing patients.
STRIVE for EXCELLENCE, NOT PERFECTION.
That served me well.
Yes, "sowing up" is essential.
The bedrock of Character formation is indeed consistency.
