Twenty.

Wow. The big 2-0. You know, I honestly didn't think I'd keep up this consistently. 20 posts may not seem much in the likes of "no-lifer" bloggers like Perez Hilton (ugh), but for someone like me, who's rollercoaster life tends to prevent any form of consistency, this is pretty amazing. I hope you guys have enjoyed my bloggage, cause there's more to come.

Speaking of consistency, I feel the need to voice something. By asking a question: How many of you guys have been told by someone that you "aren't trying hard enough" or aren't "dedicated enough" because "they don't see 'it'"? What is 'it' exactly? Why 'it' is the effort; the blood, sweat and tears put into an object of your passion. Or at least that's holding your attention. Well it happens to me all the time. And I know that until I write the next New York Times bestseller, or become the ghostwriter for Ne-yo's ghostwriting (lol), I will be faced with those remarks of doubt.

However, to do just that, one thing that is necessary...is consistency. The grind is neverending. The research everexpanding. The talent always evolving. I think success really comes down to reaction time. Can you build up to your goal faster than people are tearing it down? And only consistency can give you the chance to do that. Unless you win the lottery, golden opportunities and sweepstakes regularly.

My point, is that whether you're just keeping a blog up to date or keeping your eye on the prize, things will halt to a screeching stop without the consistent 'it' that your family, friends, co-workers, and enemies all deem you don't have enough of.
