Hi everyone,
Looking back at the beginning of this journey, it’s interesting to think about what I would say to myself on that very first day.
There are several pieces of advice I could pass back. I would tell myself to never quit, to ignore the noise, and to avoid chasing unicorns. I would remind myself to focus on quality and to completely ignore the stats early on.
But if I had to pick the single most important lesson for those early days, it would be this: be consistent.

Everything else eventually falls into place, but only if you keep showing up. Without consistency, none of the other advice gets a chance to work.
How about you?
What would you tell the day one version of yourself?
If you had to pick just one piece of advice to give yourself when you first started, what would it be?
Thanks for reading,
Dan
