My secret to blogging…

When I first started blogging, I heard this statistic…

95% of bloggers give up in less than 1 year.

This really excited me! I thought to myself, “You mean if I want to be in the top 5% of bloggers, all I have to do is exist after 1 year!?”

So I made that my one and only goal.

Persistence is my secret to blogging. Simply, outlasting everyone else.

And I think a lot of things in life are similar. School, careers, relationships or hard challenges in life… Just showing up every day and not quitting puts you ahead.

Today: Keep showing up. Outlast everyone else.

And I’m proud of you.
Love, Joel.
