Dear Chase,
What's up man!
I know for a fact that you and I care way more about 100 editions of AIMI than anyone else does.
So, I won't gush too much. I'll just give your audience a piece of advice that I think everyone should hear.
This is a quick one. Only because I've got champagne waiting to be popped, and I can't let it get warm.
We've been doing this series since February of 2022.
I was a different person back then, and so were you.
You had one less child.
I still had zero children, but I was in a completely different stage of my life and business.
But there's one thing that you and I have continued to do, no matter what.
This newsletter.
The lesson is this.
One thing that so few people are able to accomplish is extreme consistency.
Before you stop reading and think this is just some hustle BS…actually consider this.
Consistency is an underrated trait.
Nobody actually does it.
Pretty much every person ever gives up on everything they've ever started.
You might think that in the world of "money motivation" and "hustle grind Gary Vee" that everyone is used to being consistent.
Nope.
99.9% of people are completely incapable of sticking to anything, even if they seem "successful".
They get bored, they lose motivation, they forget their "why", etc.
The trait of "consistency" is one of the things that inherently makes you a 1% individual, simply by virtue of the fact that NO ONE else is willing to do it.
And it's not even hard.
It just requires discipline.
Discipline is not physically taxing. It's solely a test of your mental fortitude.
I'm positive there were days that Chase didn't feel like sending out a whole newsletter.
I know that because there were days that I didn't feel like writing an email to Chase.
But every single week, we show up for each other.
My advice is as follows:
Pick something that you can do for 100 weeks straight.
Doesn't have to be anything difficult. In fact, the smaller the better.
Just pick anything.
And do it for 100 weeks.
Why?
Just to prove to yourself that you CAN.
This is honestly the motivation behind the actions of some of the most successful people. They wanted to prove that they could do something to themselves and to others.
Discipline is a muscle.
And consistency (even if it's for something super small, like a 300-word weekly newsletter) is one of the best ways to train it.
As expected, very few people reading this will take this advice.
But don't be surprised if you never end up being Chase Dimond.
Anyway.
Cheers to 100 more, Chase. I don't know when we'll stop doing these.
I hope we never do <3
Yours truly,
Alex.
