Being called boring used to be an insult, but not anymore.

Today boring is a contrarian goal. To understand what gets you excited. Even if others find it boring. You shouldn't force yourself into one box or label. Instead, you should find what you want to pursue. And often chasing a goal with consistency can look boring from the outside. That's why there is surprising value in slowing down and letting boring be the goal. Because you can create outsized results, from plain old boring consistency over time preventing distractions. What's your brand of boring?

Let's keep everything simple, and make progress one step at a time.
