The Red Pencil That Changed My Life

I was five.

We were in a refugee camp.

My dad handed me a single red pencil and said, “That’s all you need.”

And he made me draw everything in red, rocks, people, cartoons, whatever was in front of me.

At the time, it felt limiting.

But it became the most important lesson of my life.

Quantity creates quality.

Repetition builds mastery.

It’s the same for authors.

Your first 100 posts will be rough.

Your first videos might flop.

But the reps are what make you great.

The road to quality is paved with quantity.
