    ✅ Skill of the Day: How to Keep a ‘Done’ List (Not Just a To-Do List)

    You’re not unproductive.

    You’re just forgetting what you actually got done.

    We obsess over what’s left — but we rarely track what we’ve already conquered.

    That’s where the ‘Done’ List comes in.

    🔁 How It Works:

    At the end of the day, write down everything you finished, no matter how small: Sent that message Did the workout Read 5 pages Didn’t check Instagram during work Drank more water than usual

    🧠 Why It Works:

    Shifts your focus from incomplete to accomplished Builds confidence through proof Reinforces the identity of someone who executes

    🧱 Pro Tip:

    Start with just 3 wins a day.

    You’ll be shocked how much you’re actually doing.

    📘 Don’t just plan your progress — record your proof.

  • 🧠 Skill of the Day: How to Be Consistent Without Motivation

    🧠 Skill of the Day: How to Be Consistent Without Motivation

    Motivation is a lie.

    Consistency only comes when you stop relying on feelings — and start relying on systems.

    Here’s how I built consistency I can trust:

    Identity first. I stopped trying to “get motivated.” I asked: What would a disciplined person do today? Design friction. I deleted distractions. No motivation needed when there’s nothing tempting me to stop. Daily 1% wins. No heroic efforts. Just one brick every day — no matter what. Pre-decide your actions. If you have to think about it, you’ll find a reason not to. Pre-decide. Execute. Done. Make your system unmissable. My routine is easier to do than to avoid. That’s by design.

    Motivation fades. But systems keep showing up.

    🧱 Discipline is a system — not a feeling.
