Episode description

Time and time again, we’re reminded that success comes from repeating steps. Which ‘boring’ steps should you continue to take? How can you stop thinking of your routines in a negative way? On this episode, we’re discussing why mundane, everyday activities are crucial for success.

 

 

If you want the highs, you have to do the boring things. -Matt Johnson

 

Takeaways + Tactics

  • Following ‘boring’ routines is really a simple approach to mastery.
  • It’s fun to create something new, but remember that a lot of our great ideas don't get brought to completion.
  • There is the “doing”, and there's the “perception of the doing”

 

If you think about some of the most celebrated sports stars, like Tiger Woods and Michael Jordan, they often have something in common: committed, repeated activity. Even when they’re at the top of their games, they’re continuing to practice the steps that took them to the top in the first place. Don’t allow yourself to be put off by the banality. You’re mastering small steps, every single day.
