Hello everyone! Just doing a close community poll. If there are any video ideas or topics you would like to hear me speak about or go more in depth on, this is the place to let me know! Hope you all have been well, I'll be sure to check every comment on this post :)

Hello, welcome to the community! We have some new members, I would just like to do an introduction post. My name is Yip and I love learning and growing. I have found that my life's goal is in growth and teaching others skills. I have been through issues with depression and anxiety, and have grown out of these issues with room for even more improvement, and I would like to share my progress with the world. I love skateboarding, going to the gym, creating content, and making art. I also enjoy reading and learning about social media and I'm on track for a Bachelor's degree in marketing. I want to know more about my community, What brings you here, what are you interested in learning about, and what are the areas in life that you want to continue growing in? Also, how can I help my people in their search for their ideal self? Thanks for reading, talk to you soon! 😄

If you truly care about what you are interested in learning, growth comes naturally. Your consistency will allow you to grow as long as you keep on learning actively. Often, we are clouded by fear and doubt and excitement. We think that the best way to grow is to put in 200%, and then we will be successful. This is a common misconception. Real growth comes from doing the activity with as minimal effort as possible. This allows us to stay consistent with growth and avoid burnout. When we reach burnout before truly building a habit, it is easy to just completely quit the activity as a whole. When we build a habit first of consistently working on our craft, it allows us to eventually get to a point where what felt like 200% in the beginning now only feels like 50% effort, because your mind and body are in alignment with the activity. Things only get easier over time, and the hardest part of learning anything is the first 10%. It is hard to learn something without loving it. If it was not meant for you, you will never find real joy in doing the activity, even if you see external success. I want to know what is the thing that you love most in your life, and what would be a way to incorporate it daily with as minimal effort as possible to ensure you avoid burnout. Thank you for reading, I will talk to you soon!

I often struggled with consistency in the past, and falling behind in progress would be so detrimental to me that I would quit the thing that I am attempting to learn, do, or create. As I age and continue to learn about myself, I realize that the only path to failure is quitting. Many of our favorite artists, musicians, athletes were rejected or "failed" countless times, but it is that dedication and commitment to their craft that prevailed in the end. Every failure just became a stepping stone on the way to success that they were able to learn from. That is to say, consistency will iron out all the ups and downs of your progress. Some days may feel better than others, but as long as you repeat your desired action day after day, there is no option but to surpass the competition. You reap what you sow in its entirety, so those who practice their chosen discipline day after day will excel, even if the results are delayed. Great things take time, nothing good was ever done in haste. Patience with yourself and realizing that mistakes are all part of the success is what will allow you to win in the end. What are some tools you use to be more consistent?

Thanks for joining and welcome to the community! I hope to grow this page through consistency in practicing the things that I love. I hope we can all share our growth and development through this community. So with that out of the way, I would like to ask, what have you been working on learning?
