The majority is caught up in the “relentless release of stuff.”

Most producers rush to deliver many materials rather than investing the time and painstaking care to handcraft a single masterpiece that stands the test of time.

I go into great depth on this pivotal subject in The 5AM Club yet for now please consider this: it’s wiser to make one Fifth Symphony versus many pieces of mediocrity [that never establish domain dominance].

Release Limited Magic VS. Ubiquitous Mediocrity

Perfectionism isn’t healthy. Yet, here’s the reality based on my nearly 25 years in the trenches with the titans of industry, world-changers, NBA superstars and music icons: the great ones are all obsessive. They cannot bear being mediocre. They cannot live stagnating at ordinary. They have uncontainable hunger to exploit their potential, bring on mastery and turn their entire field on its head. 

Mahatma Gandhi said it beautifully. "One cannot do right in one area whilst he is occupied and doing the wrong in another area."

So please remember - the way you do one thing defines the way you do everything.

The Way You Do One Thing Defines The Way You Do Everything

Producers with drained batteries are highly unproductive. ⁣
⁣
The idea that working longer and harder makes you more productive and better is outdated.⁣
⁣
Legendary producers outfocus, outinvent and outwork everyone around them when it’s game time. And then, after they’ve expressed their mastery in a hot burst of flaming audacity, they go dark. Ghost. Silent.⁣
⁣
And recover. And read. And exercise. And daydream. And regenerate.⁣
⁣
This seasonal or cyclical way of running a day and then a week and then a month and then your years is unpopular. And counterintuitive, given the way we’ve been socially programmed to think about productivity.⁣
⁣
Yet if you really want to express your genius, lead your field and stay in your sport for the fullness of a career, it’s the best way to operate. ⁣

An Uncommon Method to x100 Your Productivity

A Profound Quote To Help You Reclaim Your Primal Genius

Stop using victimspeak. Our words have dazzling power to shape our results. And to energize ourselves. Excuses, gossip and criticism diminish your native talents. And degrade your original magic. Deploy words of hope into the world and watch your creativity rise.

How Legendary Leaders Speak

Reading a book is having a conversation with the author. And as you know, we are transformed by our conversations. 

Install a ritual of reading a book by one of the great women and men of the world for 60 minutes a day. Every day. 

Study how they set up their days, the beliefs on which they conducted their lives, the way in which they translated adversity into victory and how they continued to pursue their mission when they were exhausted, dispirited and attacked. 

The more time you spend with the best human beings who have graced our planet, the more peace you’ll feel as you make your own rise toward your very best.

Ultra-producers and genuine virtuosos focus on steady and incremental accomplishments acutely focused in the direction of their most important projects. They get that success happens through evolution – not by revolution. And that small daily micro-wins when done continually over time lead to staggering results.

The Micro-Wins Advantage

Upgrade your life and you upgrade the world’s life. As you strengthen and improve, the way you reply to [and view] the crises will be reshaped. You’ll see what’s happening through the eyes of a warrior sage versus from the perception of a terrified victim.

So in this time of enforced quietude, work on you. Your inner core. Because life always reflects you. And during this time that many of us cannot go outside, the smartest among us are going inside. So that when this all ends, they will model mastery, act on possibility and completely lead the field.
