Here it is: Stop looking for tips.

The tips, tricks, and tactics are nothing but a blanket to hide behind. They’re the 1% you can add on at the end to edge out some more from your work.

But it doesn’t matter if you have Stephen King’s pen. Tim Ferriss’s morning routine. Steve Wozniak’s keyboard. Ronaldo’s ab workout.

The 99% you’re seeking is nothing special. It’s always built from consistency. It means showing up everyday without any excuses. And you already know what to do when you show up. So what are you hoping to find out there?

Everything else is just a cherry on top. Sure it might help. But what are you putting the cherry on top of?

You’re going to get a lot more done by simply doing than looking for marginal benefits. Focus on the big wins. Leave the tips and tricks for later. You’ll probably end up finding you don’t actually need them.
