Exactly three months ago, on June 22nd, I embarked on a journey. It wasn't a journey that involved exotic locations or grand adventures, but rather a journey of discipline and self-discovery. It marked the beginning of a commitment to consistency, something I'd struggled with in the past. This journey has been both enlightening and transformative, much like the path I tread in building my startup, ComeBy .
The Switch that flipped in My Mind
In the chaotic world of startups, it's easy to let certain things slide. Writing, for me, had always been a passion, but consistency often eluded me. I would start with great enthusiasm, only to be derailed by something "more pressing". Excuses were abundant, and I found solace in them.
But something changed in June. There was no grand proclamation or solemn promise to myself. Instead, it was a subtle shift, a decision made in a moment. I decided, "Let's do it—one day at a time," an attempt at mirroring the spirit with which I was building ComeBy .
Takeaways on Consistency
So, what have I learned about consistency during these past three months?
Firstly, I've realized that consistency is more than just a task; it's a commitment to something bigger. For me, writing isn't just about producing content; it's catharsis. It's a way to process my thoughts, distill them into structured ideas, and gain clarity amidst the startup chaos. The bigger purpose gives me the motivation to stick with it.
Secondly, content is never in short supply when you're building a business from 0-1. Every day brings new challenges, insights, and learnings. There's always something worth sharing, a valuable lesson learned or an interesting twist in the entrepreneurial journey.
Thirdly, the idea of "not having enough time" was a persistent obstacle that consistency helped me overcome. I discovered that when you make something a priority, there's always time in the day to do it. Consistency has a way of expanding the hours, turning what seemed like a tight schedule into a canvas of opportunity.
As I continue to write these articles, I hope that one day I can look back and see the evolution not just of my writing but also of my mind throughout this exhilarating phase of building ComeBy. Consistency, it turns out, isn't just a habit; it's a tool for introspection, growth, and storytelling.
And so, the journey continues—one article at a time, one day at a time, and one step closer to the ever-elusive goal of consistency.
