You take ten times more action for one month. I asked a room what happens next, and the room said you'll learn more, you'll catch them, you'll get tired. Then you go to the mirror to check.
Two hours a day, thirty days straight, and the mirror shows nothing. What is that evidence of?
Of nothing. Honestly, guys. I don't think anything happens. One month is very insignificant time to develop skills. If you do ten times more for one month you're not going to see any change, and that is exactly where the expectation breaks, because you did the work and there is nothing to show for it. It's like a guy showing up at the gym. Two hours of workout, then the locker room. Bro, where's the muscle? You don't see the difference in one day, or one week, or, very likely, one month. But if you continue, and you compare day one against day one hundred and eighty, two screenshots of the same person who showed up every single day, you're going to see a significant transformation. Thirty days is not a measurement of you and it's not a measurement of the method. It's ten days of tomato seed.
So the thing that decides this is not talent. You don't have to be the most genius person in the room. You don't have to be smart or good at math. You have to repeat. Repeat whether you know it or not, whether you fail or not, whether you enjoy it or not.
The second trap is a hormone. Motivation is dopamine. Do you want your hormone to dictate your life? One day you wake up and you're good, one day you're down. Are you the stock market? You get excited today, ten hours, I'm going to study, and two months later you can't find the same motivation. Don't work on motivation alone. Treat this like a gym. You want it, do it. You don't want it, do it. Raining, do it. Sunny, do it. Everybody's doing barbecue outside, still do it. Shut up and show up.
And put real hours in. Twenty-four hours a week is the goal, three and a half hours a day. Twenty hours is gold. But if you do less than ten hours, don't bother. What I want from you across this journey is one to two thousand hours, and if you're going to spend two thousand hours anyway on TV and scrolling, then let's not even talk about being successful.
