This is awesome. Reminds me of the girl who learned to dance in one year by recording herself every day. Also reminds me of Seth Godin who recommends starting the day by producing rather than consuming and follows the practice by writing a new blog post every day, without fail.

Consistency is so hugely important. Quality is born from quantity.

Could be. But Seth Godin is hardly the living proof. In fact, I've stopped reading his blog long time ago precisely because of the sheer number of "I need to write about something today" type of posts. I much prefer when people write when they have something really meaningful to say. Which is what Paul Graham usually does, for example. I guess that's a case for "quality breeds quality".

A blogger I read, Tynan ( http://tynan.com/ ), writes a blog post every day, however he posts only the best ones, in order to maximize quality (i.e. both from being selective and from the practice of writing).

"Start the day by producing instead of consuming." Sounds wonderful. I'm going to try and live by that. Thanks for this :)

Good luck. My longest streak doing this was 6 days I think.

Then cook it before you eat it.

But don't "consume" any energy cooking it?
