“I live by ‘Go big or go home.’ That’s with everything. It’s like either commit and go for it or don’t do it at all. I apply that to everything. I apply that to relationships, I apply that to like sports, I apply that to everything. That’s what I live by. That’s how I like it.” -Paul Walker
If you want to accomplish something don’t half ass it. Don’t sporadically do it. Work hard for it. Consistently do it. Constancy wins.
You can’t expect to become great at something if you don’t put the work in everyday. Have it marked on your calendar. Guard that time. No matter, you know everyday from 6-7 pm you are learning a language or practicing piano or learning your new skill.
If you continue doing it day after day it will become a habit. Make sure it becomes a habit. You can’t learn by doing something 20 minutes today, working on it for 2 hours 4 days later, and working for 1 hour 2 days from then. It needs to be an everyday thing. No matter what. Any amount everyday is crucial.
The more time you spend per day on your project, the more you’ll learn. Start small. Try many approaches. Work on it for a few hours every single day. On the weekends, work longer.
If this is something you really want don’t let anything or anyone stop you.
Believe in the process. Believe you can learn this new skill. You will learn. It will be frustrating at times. Keep it fun and enjoyable. It will take time. Understand the work you’re doing now is important.
If you miss a day, that’s alright. Make sure you don’t miss 2 days in a row. 2 days turns into 3 which turns into 4 and then that habit you worked so hard on is now gone.
Go all in. Work hard for it. It will pay off.
