“Stacking Days” – Why Consistency Beats Perfection

Chris Paul’s mantra, “stacking days,” is a powerful reminder that greatness isn’t built in a single burst of effort — it’s built brick by brick, day by day. In a world obsessed with overnight results and instant perfection, this mindset brings us back to what really matters: consistency.

In life — and especially in fitness and nutrition — chasing perfection is often the fastest route to burnout. One missed workout or one indulgent meal shouldn’t undo weeks of progress. What moves the needle is your ability to show up again tomorrow. And the next day. And the next.

Stacking days means honoring small wins. It means choosing the workout even when you don’t feel like it, prepping the meal even when it’s not Instagram-worthy, drinking water instead of soda, walking instead of skipping movement altogether. These aren’t grand gestures — they’re daily deposits in your long-term well-being.

Progress doesn’t come from being perfect; it comes from being present, committed, and consistent. And when you stack enough good days — even imperfect ones — the results start to take care of themselves.

So stop aiming for flawless. Start stacking.
