My Personal Struggle With Being Consistent Earlier in Life

As I searched for my true calling, I realized that I was dropping out and abandoning stuff because that was NOT something I really wanted to do, and deep down I knew that.

Once I found my “true calling” and started to manifest the kind of life that I wanted to create, I became very committed and consistent, because what I am doing is consistent with my inner self

10 Principles to be Consistent at Anything You Do

Follow these principles to be consistent in any area you seek to master and conquer.

Setting goals and making plans to achieve those goals isn’t the real deal. The real deal is to follow through on those plans and be consistent with your efforts.

Commit IF You Really Want To Do It

Ask yourself if you really want to do it.

Are you willing to face the challenges that will come along the way?
Will you go through the learning curve and develop all the necessary skills necessary to achieve the desired goal?

Don’t Complicate

The key to Sustainability is Simplicity

If you get into too much detail trying to make everything perfect and fretting over tiny details, it will be difficult for you to last long after the initial hype fades off.
Just get in the habit of getting things going.

Value progress over perfection

Things don’t always have to go smoothly and go the way we expect

It’s okay to make mistakes
We cannot always give our best all the time
Sometimes we have to perform at an average level to be able to maintain consistency

Learn To Say NO

Prioritize and don’t let any distractions drag you away from your priority tasks

If you made a commitment to a certain thing, keep it high on your priority list and say No to anything that might get in the way

Set Realistic Goals And Expectations

Aim the highest, but set realistic goals and expectations

Things take time to develop
Shoot for the stars, but expect to work hard for several years to build a rocket
Sow a seed, but don’t expect a fully developed tall, luscious tree in the next 10 years

Forgive Yourself For Not Being Consistent And Then Come Back To Your Commitment

The thing that determines your consistency is not how perfectly you follow through, but how fast you come back to your commitment if you get off track.

Instead of beating yourself up, accept it and be forgiving towards yourself, and then get back to it!

Bonus Tip: Create a System and Automate Your Work

Set a specific system so that everything clicks

Look towards automating as many things as you can through apps and online services
Automation will tremendously simplify your life, save your from being overwhelmed, and free up time which you can utilize on other important things
