from The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett · host The Experience Plus
In this moment, YouTube and productivity expert, Ali Abdaal discusses the power of consistency and how to overcome procrastination. Ali discusses the power of compounding interest, and how small actions over time can snowball into trigger larger rapid changes such as viral success from making a YouTube video every week for 2 years. However, to get to this position, Ali says you have to first learn to love the process, moving away from an outcome based mindset that means success is out of your control, and instead to a view of success that comes from within. To get there first means overcoming hurdles such as procrastination.

So rather than worrying about moving a whole mountain, people should focus on moving one pebble at a time.Listen to the full episode here - https://g2ul0.app.link/kHoT6TnDwFbWatch the Episodes On Youtube - https://www.youtube.com/c/%20TheDiaryOfACEO/videosAli: https://aliabdaal.com/https://www.youtube.com/@aliabdaalLearn more about your ad choices.
