Finishing well
jasonleow • 2 Nov 2024 •
Just passed 300 days of daily commits!
(In fact, it’s longer than 300 days because I started this streak from around mid-October last year!)
Some learnings and thoughts:
- Consistency is great if you have product-market fit.
- Before PMF, be consistent at experiments.
- Consistency is nothing without direction.
- But easy to underrate consistency when you have direction/product-market fit.
- Some days, one tiny commit is all you got and all you need to give. Some days, you make 20 commits and you can still go. Consistency can be variable too.
- It’s not the quantity of work but the fulfilling a promise you made to yourself. Your inner child tracks and knows. Fulfil these promises, and it lives up to the promise.
- Consistency is a kind of self-love. “Discipline equals freedom”.
- Fuck critics who have not tried. This is the arena, and they are just the dumb onlookers.
58 days left to 2024. About 2 months.
What do you plan to do to finish well?

that my 2025 goals! but i believe i got tons of local repo that I didn’t commit to github in order to populate my chart properly
@Winkletter Oh nice! Let’s keep going!
@knight Cool, join us over at Commit365 for 2025 then! - https://t.me/commit365
“80% of success is showing up” 😃
For the next 2 months I want to experience visible improvements in my fat-loss and to work on a few content products (books and online courses) and ways to market them. I still didn’t achieve PMF (or maybe it’s establishing my personal brand because the topics I write about are already popular products with a proven market), so I need to work on that!
888 Huat ah! You are the most consistent person i know!
Consistency is a kind of self-love.
— love this
@jasonleow lol I’m no a telegram person leh, the only thing that I do on telegram is check what my kid’s school teacher share
@haideralmosawi Yes agree about the 80%! I think fat loss is inevitable if you keep it up. PMF is trickier, but yeah, more marketing, SEO etc definitely helps to carve out your slice of the pie!
@poppacalypse Haha you caught the 888! I should tweet that consistency self love thing 🤔
@knight I think someone in the group started a Commit365 list on Twitter too - if you want - https://x.com/i/lists/1812355420033544519
I started my daily newsletter around that time… Oct 16th. My plan to finish well is to keep my two-week buffer going and maybe even grow it.
