On Discipline and Consistency

This is a post that serves as a little note to myself. A reminder that I can do things. That I have to do things — make things. A reminder that I need to stay consistent and disciplined if I want to get anywhere close to the person I always wished to be. This is a reminder that time is ticking.

Think back to when you were younger, your school or college days. There was a dream. There were things you wanted to do, and you hoped that a mature adult version of yourself would one day take care of all of it and live the life you had imagined. There was a promise made to yourself that motivated you as you grew up.

It is time to fulfil that promise. To show that little kid that everything which was once a dream can become real.

So make that thing you were procrastinating on. Go pick up that camera or that phone. Edit that video. Record that voiceover. Do the thing you have been putting off.

You have to fulfil the promise.

So do it, and don’t disappoint that younger version of yourself. Ever.

I will look back at this post every three months and recalibrate my path. That is a promise I make to myself today.
