You know writing every day will change your life.
But you still struggle to stay consistent.
The reason is not that you’re lazy or undisciplined.
It’s your mindset.
You’re writing for an outcome.
You’re writing to grow an audience.
You’re writing to make money.
These are not what you should write for.
When you write for an outcome, you won’t stay consistent. The moment you don’t get the likes, followers, or money you expected, you’ll lose the drive.
If you want to become dangerously consistent.
You need to shift your focus.
From outcome → process.
Focus on building a writing habit.
Focus on creating a writing system.
Focus on improving your writing skills.
When you focus on the process, the result follows.
In fact, I recommend you to COMPLETELY ignore the results.
Because…
If you have 34 followers — you’re going to write every day.
If you have 34k followers — you’re going to write every day.
If you make $0 — you’re going to write every day.
If you make $3k — you’re going to write every day.
The process is going to be the same. You need to give the result some time to catch up.
And it will only catch up if you stay consistent.
Simply put…
Act like a writer who already has tens of thousands of followers and makes tens of thousands of dollars.
What do you think a writer who has tens of thousands of followers and makes tens of thousands of dollars does?
He writes every day and doesn’t give fuck about the vanity metrics.
That’s the secret.
It’s: Be → Do → Have.
You first become the guy. Then you do the work. Then you have what you want.
Writing consistently is easy if you focus on the process.
