Curious Enough to Succeed...In Everything: Conscious Consistency


Webcam modeling advice for being a cam girl from Tacy Plush

Today's blog is based on a YouTube Video from our webcam modeling sister Ms. Tacy Plush (@TacyPlush). This is a message cam girls definitely need to hear. I've been following her Curious Enough to Succeed Vlog series for a while and her most recent post on "Conscious Consistency" was too on point. I had to share it with you.

This video comes perfectly in divine order on the heels of my last two blogs about focus and the importance of allowing yourself a break to rejuvenate. Here are some key points that Tacy touches on in her video that I know are imperative for cam models to understand.

Consistency - The results you have with your camming and in your life period, regardless of if said results are desirable or undesirable, are caused by your consistent, habitual, actions (or inactions). I wrote a short blog about consistency almost two years ago, you can see it here, "The Key to Unlocking Your Greatness"

Clarity - You must know, that you know, that you know, that you know. When I ask new or aspiring webcam models why they want to be a cam girl, the #1 answer is usually, "Oh well I need the money." I chuckle at this answer because it's like, how do you even know how much money you're going to make? This is not a regular job where you know from start that you'll get paid $10/hr. So there has to be another reason why, out of all the gigs in the world, you are choosing to do this. You must have clarity on this reason. Why do you want to be a webcam model (besides money) and what, specifically, do you want to get from this? This must be crystal clear in your mind. Your WHY and your WHAT will be the driving force for you to turn on that cam on days when you just don't "feel like it"

Commitment - Speaking of don't feel like it...one of the best definitions of commitment is, "continuing to take action towards something you said you would do, long after the moment in which you said it has passed." So for example, you made a commitment to yourself and your audience that you would cam 30 hours a week. Yet here it is the end of the week and you've barely clocked 15 hours. Now you have every excuse in the book as to why you didn't put in the other 15 hours. Guess what, those goals you said you had for yourself, don't give two flying rats behind about your excuses. You either live up to your commitment or you don't. 
LOSERS MAKE EXCUSES, WINNERS MAKE IT HAPPEN!

Personal Accountability - Simply, this means that you fully acknowledge and accept that YOU are the creator of everything that occurs in your life. You refuse to blame any he, she, it, them, they, for the results that you have. It's not the cam site's fault, it's not your webcam's fault, it's not because of the weather, it's not because you don't have this, or need that. NO. It's because you, YOU, made a choice in the way you respond and that choice and response lead to a result. Right now, make the choice to eliminate blaming and that includes blaming yourself. The great thing about being personally accountable is that you realize that if the choice you made didn't bring about your desired result, you get to choose again.

Incubation - Like I said in yesterday's post, taking time to break, incubate, get away or just veg out, is an exercise of good self care. Taking time to reflect allows you body, mind, and spirit to catch up with each other and will give you greater clarity in your purpose and inspiration for your next steps. There's a difference between being straight up lazy and taking a pause. When you take a pause you do it with purpose and with the knowing that your break will bring out something that will benefit you when you return to working towards your target.

Integrity - Keeping your word. Especially, and most importantly your word to yourself. In the video, Tacy talks about how being consciously consistent helps you to show yourself that you are dependable and reliable and this is so very important. Think about it. How many times have you told yourself you were going to do something (eat right, exercise, get more sleep, create or edit a series of video, put in more hours on cam) and you didn't follow through on your promise to yourself? Every time you do that, you are teaching yourself that you can't rely on you...and why should anyone spend their hard earned money on someone who can't even depend on themselves?

This is really a jewel of a message and I thank and appreciate Tacy for sharing her thoughts and her journey with all of us who are Curious Enough to Succeed...In Everything.
