Success = Boom or Blah!

[Please find a video version of this post here.]

Remember what you were doing on Father’s Day? That was 100ish days ago. And now we have 100ish days left in 2024.

In our house, we’ve been cracking down on a disciplined weekday schedule — keeping things simple, consistent, and focused.

Everyone loves a quick win, a big break... I buy lotto tickets sometimes, too. But what really works is doing what works. Again. And again. And again. It may not be shiny, but it gets results.

Boredom is dangerous. It makes us chase the “new” thing, or doom scroll, or fall of the wagon.

Come back to your focus.

Find your rhythm.

Repeat. Repeat. Repeat.

I spoke to a founder last week who said, “Success isn't boom or bust. It's boom or... blah.” Either way, he's working toward prosperity. Because sometimes the big win is in the mundane. It's in doing what works — over and over, better and better, more and more.

In finance, we know this. It’s all about steady compounding. Consistency. Risk/reward. Reliable returns. And you know what? Life is the same.

So with 100ish days left, what’s your focus? What’s your strategy?

Imagine what you’ll be celebrating on New Year’s Eve.

Boom or blah — either way, move forward.
