This strategy guarantees big wins in 2024
Jan 05, 2024 8:06 am
Hey there people!
I don't know about you but I love Dave Chappelle.
He's been label a lot of titles but my favorite is "America's comedic genius"..
That title was given to him by Esquire Magazine.
But...
For all his genius...
He doesn't come anywhere near Jerry Sienfeld.
By almost any measure of wealth, popularity, and critical acclaim...
Jerry Seinfeld is among the most successful comedians, writers, and actors of his generation.
However, what is most impressive about Seinfeld's career isn't the awards, the earnings (over $1 billion), or the special moments...
It's the remarkable consistency of it all.
That is the remarkable difference between the comedic genius and an otherwise
regular Jewish guy.
Show after show, year after year, he performs, creates, and entertains at an incredibly high standard.
Jerry Seinfeld produces with a level of consistency that most of us wish we could bring to our daily work.
Dave has been doing that took from 2016...
But the 10 year break between 2005 and 2015 cost him dearly.
And we can all relate to Dave...
We all have dreams and goals that have been derailed for one reason or another....
We want to create, but struggle to do so.
We want to exercise, but fail to find motivation.
Wanting to achieve our goals, but...
For some reason or another....
We still procrastinate on them.
What's the difference?
What strategies does Jerry Seinfeld use to beat procrastination and consistently produce high quality work?
What does he do each day that most people don't?
That's what you're about to find out and how you can use one simple strategy to crush your goals and make this your best year ever.
So what do you do when the math is not mathing?
When your attempts to change do not change you...
Or your new workout plan does not work out for you...
Or when goals do not get across the finish line of achievement...
Understand that it doesn't mean that you are weak or incompetent...
It means you never started a winning streak or...
You started it but interrupted it.
A winning streak is an uninterrupted sequence of wins.
It's when you are able to do something consistently and courageously for a defined period of time.
Let's get back to Sienfeld...
The secret to his success was to create better jokes...
And the way to create better jokes was to write every day.
He places a big wall calendar that has a whole year on one page and he hangs it on a prominent wall.
The next step he goes through is to get a big red magic marker...and for each day of writing new jokes...
He puts a big red X over that day.
After a few days he develops a chain (a winning streak) and he keeps at without interruption.
According to Seinfeld, his primary responsibility and key discipline is to "not break the chain.”
Those of us who like Jerry Seinfeld are able to string together LONG WINNING STREAKS make the record books...
They set the standard...
They elevate the game…
And they put their permanent stamp on history.
Don’t you want a piece of that action?
Of course you do…but how do you do it?
How do you apply the idea of winning streaks to your life and transform your results?
Lucky for you, it’s a lot simpler than you think...but please make note that I did not say easy.
HOW TO CREATE A WINNING STREAK
A winning streak in any endeavor is an uninterrupted sequence of wins…it is consistency personified.
From a behavior standpoint...
Think of consistency as the absence of contradiction.
All top performers in every field, athletes, musicians, CEOs, artists, are all more consistent than their peers.
They show up each day prepared to win and consistently deliver day after day while everyone else plays the game of false starts, half-hearted follow through, blame and excuse making.
CREATING A LONG WINNING STREAK begins with the right strategy…
And strategy is defined as a plan of action intentionally designed to achieve a desired goal.
So what's the right strategy for you?
It's this: KNOW YOURSELF.
How long can you be consistent for at anything?
For some of us it's two weeks...
For others it three days...
Still others can go for 90 days straight or more...
The key is to know what it is for you and act accordingly.
How do you use this?
I typically can't keep anything going to for more than 20 days straight.
Surprising right?
Here's my secret trick.
I focus on a 14 day sprint and give myself 6 days to goof around...
Then set another 14 day sprint....
What typically has happened over the years is I've developed the ability to do 30 day sprints....
But I don't because the chances that I'll maintain that is not very high yet...
So I give myself interim breaks...
And then reset my goals for another sprint...
That's how I'm able to do a daily newsletter....
My record so far is 300 days of emails.
MASTERY FOLLOWS CONSISTENCY
Consistency is about starting and maintaining a winning streak...
And that starts and ends with being honest with yourself and your commitments.
There is NO EXCEPTION to this rule.
TO TRANSFORM ANY AREA OF YOUR LIFE IN 2024…the solution is simple (not easy).
Start with the minimum number of days you KNOW you can be consistent for...
Set your intention...
Start right now...
Don’t break the chain...
Remain consistent for that number of days…
Break for a day or two...
The reset your sprint...
And I promise, you’ll enjoy a level of consistent progress that you've never experienced before.
Many times....
We assume that the key to transforming our lives and accelerating our results require a monumental effort...
And that our goals demand a maddening mix of speed, willpower and insane motivation.
But really...
All we need to enjoy is commitment and consistency to small, daily, time defined tasks and activities.

And quite possibly share (with your permission of course) the AHAs that you share with me.
Yesterday I was chatting with one of the amazing people signed up for this year's Start The Year Right Program...
===========Beginning of Gossip===========
Him: Victor when will you be back in Lagos, I really need to sit with you and have you screw my head on tight.
Me: If it's any tighter bros you mind go break #evillaugh. Serious though it's better you take advantage of the access you have to me in STYR. It'll be easier on your pocket, an hour in person with me will most likely set you back a million and you already have a lot going on at the moment.
Him: Chai! Father when? Victor how do you do it? Where do you get the courage to call out the amounts you are calling? It's not even the calling it's the fact that you get it. How do you do it?
=======End of Gossip========
Well....
Over the next few days as I help you prep for 2024...
I'll be sharing 6 distinctions with you that made it possible for me to transition from the guy who couldn't get people to PAY N150,000 for a year of working with me...
To the guy who comfortably gets $50,000 for a year of private work with me.
Till then...
Get out of your own way and play a bigger game than you've ever played before.
