on showing up consistently
To be in the top 1% of podcasts, you need to release 21 episodes. 21. 90% of podcasts don't even make it past episode 3.
It's crazy how remaining consistent and showing up places you in a higher percentage of success. We say that consistency is essential to success but we don't talk about how important it is to show up regardless of results.
We admire the content creators who are reaping their rewards with flashy cars and money. But we ignore that most of them started from humble beginnings, and made sure to keep showing up even if it didn't make sense to.
This seems to be the sure-fire way to achieve success. The only way to lose is to give up. Show up in any way that you can, and something will happen.
