A short YouTube monologue (Dec 20, 2023) by Eric Deeran arguing that business success comes from long-run consistency: repeatedly doing boring, necessary tasks so work compounds over time. The speaker emphasizes commitment over chasing novelty, and frames business as an unemotional machine where disciplined inputs produce outputs.
The reason most people are not as successful as they want to be is because they won't do things that are really boring for a very long period of time. And if there's anything I've learned generating millions of dollars for my own business, it's that you have to do boring shit for a very long period of time. And a lot of people are just not willing to accept that. And they want a new shiny thing happening every single week, every single month, every single quarter, every single year inside of their business, instead of committing to the actions that they know they need to take. And they end up choosing comfort over success. So if you want to be really good at something, you want to be really great at something, you need to do that thing for a very long period of time. This way, the time and the work compounds without you changing direction every single time you get bored. At the end of the day, the business does not care about how you feel. The business simply exists to be a business and to be a machine. Inputs equals outputs.
