We live in a culture that worships the finish line.
Numbers. Trophies. Milestones.
But here’s the truth: growth doesn’t happen in the spotlight moment. It happens in the shadows. The real prize isn’t in crossing the line. The real prize is becoming the kind of person who shows up, day after day, watering your bamboo even when nothing seems to grow.
I'm always seeking ways to be more productive and grow both personally and professionally. That's why Jerry Seinfeld's "don't break the chain" method has become one of my favorite ways of staying on task to achieve goals.
The core idea from comedian Jerry Seinfeld is this: Do the most important thing for your big goals for at least 15-20 minutes every single day without breaking the chain. Get yourself a calendar and cross off each day you put in the work.
