People will not bat an eye if you: - Party 3 nights a week - Become overweight by neglecting health - Go massively into consumer debt Yet people will think you're crazy if you: - Start a business - Focus heavily on your health - Create instead of consume Why?

If buying camera gear helps you to stay motivated and stay excited about your photography/videography journey, then buy gear! I wasn’t seeing results in the early days of my own journey, but investing in lenses helped me to keep the fire inside me alive Leave no stone unturned.

The full episode of the Life With Lam podcast just dropped! I spoke with Jadyn all about how I discovered photography as my passion, the pursuit of breaking free from my 9-5 job and much more! Definitely give it a listen on Spotify and Apply Podcasts if you’re interested 🫶

Consistency is literally the only metric you need to worry about. Likes, shares, follower count, what niche you pick, following trends, all of that stuff doesn’t matter if your not doing this five years from now. What do all successful creators have in common? Endurance.

All you need to do is stick around longer than everyone else. Nothing else matters but slow, methodically consistency. The harsh truth is there are plenty of people who are a lot better than me, more talented, harder working, that just won’t have the endurance to stick around.

A snippet for the Driver 88 podcast. Full episode is up on their YouTube channel. We chatted about It’s been a wild journey since the start of the year and how posting twice a day, everyday led to something miraculous that changed my life forever.

A quote that changed how I think about producing content: "You don't have a content problem, you have a volume problem" There’s nothing wrong with your content, just post more. If you commit to posting everyday for the next 5 years, how could your audience not 5x or 10x?

Random thought, and I can’t remember who said this to me or where I read it: Success lies in your ability to tolerate looking stupid. I think about this every time I put my GoPros on to make content and feel a bit self conscious 😅 It’s a pretty silly look 👇🏻

If you feel silly doing something or you're not very good at it, chances are you are probably right where you need to be. A little snippet from my Instagram Story 👇🏻

90% of your stress is from inaction and overthinking. Get up, make moves, do something significant everyday, and prioritize your health.

There’s one simple truth that I discovered on my social media journey: No one cares what you show up with, they just care that you show you. Create, share, learn, and grow. Remove all the barriers in the way. And remember that quality is subjective. So just post.
