Episode Synopsis

Anyone can start. But what happens when the spark fades? In this scroll, Cary Hokama explores the cost of quitting too soon — from NFT rug pulls to the ghosts of unfinished projects that haunt us in silence. You’ll hear the story of Sylvester Stallone at 30 years old, broke with only $106 in his account, refusing to sell out and holding the line until Rocky changed cinema forever. Cary also shares his 13-year journey to a jiu-jitsu brown belt, including three times he quit — and what it took to come back with a wiser relationship to the art.This scroll is a reminder that consistency is sovereignty, and sovereignty is consistency. The two sharpen each other — one is the blade, the other the edge. Without one, the other doesn’t exist.You’ll leave this episode with a Kaizen practice: pick one thing you once quit, and return to it for seven days. No perfection, no pressure. Just proof that you can still continue.
