What is Consistency?
To become Consistence one must understand how to be persistent over a long period of time and to control the vector of there objective. So knowing how to perform at high level for a long period of time and controlling the overall direction and intensity of how to accomplish your goals.
Understanding Consistency and how to remain persistent is key to avoid burn out and create the life you want. Burn out can be very Denter mental to everyone success in pursuing their dreams and goals in life. Being consistence of the action you take towards accomplishing your goals is key. We all have a rough spurt where things slow down or objects get in our way. In these periods where we are going through hell and not alot of support, this will be the deciding factor of your dreams and aspirations. INTEGRITY and COMMITMENT to yourself!! What are you doing when no one is watching??? Taking consistent action without having to have the attention that follows. Being able to work when no one is looking and choosing to work on your craft instead of going out every weekend with friends.
Remember don’t talk about it!! Be about it!
When we are working towards are aspirations and goals. Were excited to be on this journey and often want to talk with friends and family about what were working on and share are ambitions. Must be careful in this process who you share this with and most the time is better not to share your ambitions at all. Our minds are a natural defense mechanism against others. Such as if you tell someone your going to change the world and the person your talking to is cannot comprehend your ambitious. This will cause them to unconsciously put down your ambitions. Guard your dreams and ambitions and let your actions speak for you.
Developing a routine/habit of getting things done is important in developing the tools needed for success. However, it is important that we are using these routines as a tool and not a crutch for getting something done. When we over stress the small thing such as missing a morning/daily routines and feeling off for the day, as if missing something or not completing something. We can sabotage are focus on the task at hand, instead of getting after what’s really important we waste mental and will energy on the routine that we missed that day. Creating a invisible crutch that says I need to work out, drink …, wake up at this time, and so on. Focus is a superpower in itself, do you have great focus or are you day dreaming too much??
The best way to understand anything in life is to break it down to its simplest form and build from the bottom. Such as life, sometimes we need to reset what we’re doing a remember to always go back to the basic fundamentals. Without doing this we become cocky and sometime arrogant of what we’re doing. For example a lot of people will be taught how to do something the wrong way or maybe there method of pursuing a subject is ineffective. However, they are unwilling to admit fault due to having do it a certain way for years. Being able to admit that you have been performing the wrong way or not performing a task the most efficient way can be a hard pill to swallow. For some people they have done the same task for 10 + years and it has worked fine. However, there methods work but, they are slow and inefficient and have not adapted to the new technology to hasten there process, leaving them behind and outdated. Not to over analyze the process but, to ensure that you are perfecting it along the way.
Remember that being able to push yourself is vital to sucess. Being able to develop a “get it done mentality” without relying on external sources to give you motivation. We all know what needs to be done to complete the task at hand. However, we over analyze and come up with many self-limiting beliefs that slow us down or stop us from moving forward. The fear of failure or laziness to perform a task quick and with full effort comes to be an issue.
Conculsion
We talked about becoming consistent and bringing a high intensity of action. Being able to perform when no one is looking and grinding when others are sleeping. Breaking down you goals and aspirations into simplest form to help navigate the direction have to pursue to get it done. Finally, we mentioned not letting you daily routines become a crutch for not getting things done. Focus being a superpower all by itself, focus and intensity of action can bring massive results.
Challenge Accepted
Challenge yourself to work on your focus. For this whatever obstacle you choose to work on next commit 30 minutes with high intensity focus. Means no cell phone no distractions, go at it as everything you do is of the highest importance. We often take time for granted and don’t see it slipping away.
