Coming from a young guy trying to 1. Transition a career and 2. Continue my education, you writing is a tremendous resource. I find the length absolutely digestable but full of details and a level of specificity that is tough to find. Perfect for a long bus ride home. I reread most of your posts to be honest because it reminds me that what I did in the classroom may only matter in class. The realities of the biggest successes and failures are far more fraught. Keep doing what your doing because your making a whole fo of education for guys like me.
You're right consistent effort and output are key. Many successful writers have very consistent routines (start writing at the same time every morning..).
That said, I think it's important to be aware of when it turns into a grind and be ready to make changes. My experience has been that the output becomes less engaging and fun when writing turns into a chore.

Thanks Rob, that means a lot!
As a content creator myself, know that I struggle with the exact same issues you do.
It's tough as nails.
I'm working on ironing out a new plan myself.
But here is the key (you seem to have already found it): consistency.
Writing a 3,000+ word issue every week on a company has been challenging to say the least, but very rewarding.
Keep on keeping on, and just know you are not alone in the struggle 😉👍
