Introduction: The Long Game in a Short-Attention World
In a digital world defined by fleeting trends and constant app-hopping, we rarely stick with a single platform long enough to draw deep conclusions. We download, explore, get bored, and move on. But what happens when you treat a social network less like a fleeting distraction and more like a consistent practice?
On November 24, 2025, I opened a room on Clubhouse to mark a personal milestone: five years to the day since I first joined the audio-only platform. Back in 2020, it was an exclusive, invite-only space, and stepping into it felt like starting at a new school where you don’t have any friends. You had to make them from scratch. Everyone was new, everyone was building, and that shared experience created a unique digital culture. As I celebrated that anniversary live on the app, I reflected on the journey.
That long-term commitment revealed five essential, and sometimes surprising, principles for connection and growth in any digital space. These aren't just tips for social media; they are foundational lessons for navigating our increasingly online lives with purpose and impact.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Intentionality: The Opposite of Doomscrolling
In a sea of infinite feeds and endless distractions, the first lesson is to choose to be present with a purpose. Intentionality means reframing your use of an app from a passive consumption habit to an active, goal-oriented practice. It requires asking why you are opening the app at that moment. Is it to learn something new? To support a peer? To connect with one specific person or engage with a larger community?
This is a crucial shift because it puts you in control. Instead of letting an algorithm dictate your experience, you actively decide how to spend your time and energy. Whether you're speaking to a room of one or one thousand, being intentional ensures that every session has a purpose, which in turn fosters more meaningful interactions.
"having intentionality has increased my chances of connecting people at a deeper level."
2. Priority: You Actualize What You Prioritize
Beyond simply managing your time, the second lesson is to consciously prioritize your attention. On an audio platform, this means prioritizing the rooms you join, the topics you engage with, and even what you choose to listen to—in essence, "prioritizing your ear." You can't be everywhere at once, so you must decide what conversations and connections are most aligned with your goals.
For me, prioritizing Clubhouse as a platform for my podcast, "We Don't Play," was a game-changer. By consistently making it a key part of my content strategy, I generated new ideas and engaged with my audience in real-time. This focus was instrumental in a monumental achievement: releasing 131 podcast episodes just this year alone, out of a six-year journey. When you make something a priority, you dedicate the focus and resources necessary to bring it to life.
"When you prioritize, you actualize because what you're prioritizing, you're looking at. You're paying attention to it."
3. Patience: The Lost Art of Digital Connection
The third lesson is perhaps the most counter-cultural in our fast-paced digital world: patience. Building genuine relationships takes time. On Clubhouse, I’ve seen simple connections evolve into friendships, business partnerships, and client referrals, but none of it happened overnight. Patience is the virtue required to navigate diverse conversations, but it’s not always a passive act. Sometimes, people will test your patience, wanting to tell you off or challenge your perspective. It’s in those moments that true patience is forged.
A key practice of patience in an audio-only format is the discipline of letting people finish their thoughts completely. Resisting the urge to interrupt creates a space where people feel heard and respected, a stark contrast to the rapid-fire exchanges on other platforms. This practice of active, silent listening is fundamental to understanding, which is the bedrock of any real connection.
"listen and silent are the same. It's just scrabble differently. So I believe when you're silent and you're listening and you're patient with the person, you're taking time to respond as opposed to reacting based on what you're feeling."
4. Consistency: Showing Up When No One is Watching
The fourth lesson is about the quiet power of consistency. Building a presence, a community, or a reputation in any space depends on showing up regularly—especially when it feels like no one is paying attention. "Whether there's one person in this room or 5,000 or zero," the act of being there is what matters.
This principle was baked into the very DNA of early Clubhouse. To earn the ability to start your own "club," you first had to prove your consistency by hosting open rooms for about a week. You had to put in the work before the platform’s gamified system unlocked the keys. The reward followed the commitment. Years of this consistent presence produced connections that have become part of my daily lifestyle, but one story stands out. A woman once booked a call with me just to apologize. "For what?" I asked. She confessed that because I delivered valuable information so quickly, she couldn't take notes fast enough and had started secretly recording my audio. That was a profound, tangible testament to the impact of just showing up.
5. Tenacity: The Engine for Everything Else
The final and most powerful lesson is tenacity—the resilience that underpins the other four. Platforms evolve. Features change, communities shift, and the initial hype fades. Tenacity is the commitment to adapt and "move with the times" rather than abandoning the space when it’s no longer what it once was. It's the decision to stay, even if the "app turns into Titanic."
This isn't about stubbornness. It's about conviction. It’s a deep belief in the value of the community you've helped build and a willingness to evolve with it. As the platform changes, tenacity reminds you that it’s not about what you’re sticking to, but what you believe in. It's about staying true to yourself and the people you serve, allowing you to see beyond temporary turmoil and continue building something of lasting value.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Conclusion: What Is Your Digital Platform Teaching You?
After five years on a single app, the lessons are clear. The people I’ve met are life-changing, and true growth isn't found in chasing the next shiny object. It is forged through Intentionality, Priority, Patience, Consistency, and Tenacity. These five principles are more than just a strategy for Clubhouse; they are a blueprint for navigating any professional or personal endeavor in our digital world. They remind us that platforms are just tools; it is how we choose to use them that defines our impact, leaving us with one essential question to consider:
