Casting Votes & Stacking Undeniable Proof. (009)
“You don't become confident by shouting affirmations in the mirror..."

Vote or Die.
One of my all-time favorite books is Atomic Habits, by James Clear. THE ONE THING that I continue to come back to is the quote
“Every action you take is a vote for the type of person you wish to become?”
If you want to be the type of person who values their health and trains consistently, you must take action and cast votes by working out consistently. If you want to be a writer, you must cast votes towards becoming a writer by writing (daily). To become whoever it is you want to be, it takes repeated action.
Your votes go towards the qualities and attributes you want to embody. Your identity evolves because you are stacking proof, evidence, and daily deposits that you are that kind of person.
Chris Williamson & Hormzoi have some legendary podcast conversations.
“You don't become confident by shouting affirmations in the mirror, but by having a stack of undeniable proof that you are who you say you are. Give yourself so much goddamn proof that you are the version of yourself want to be, and you'll become them.”
Your Daily Deposit is that stack of proof in the area you want to evolve the most.
The magic is in consistent action, improvement, and being intentional.
Every 4 years you hear everyone get all hyped about voting and encouraging others to get out and vote. Don’t forget you are voting every day. Every single day you are casting votes for the person you wish to become.
If you loved this one please subscribe and reply to let me know. I promise I will keep these coming! Keep stacking those daily deposits and making every day the best of the year until tomorrow.
