Consistency – Is it important in life ?

Consistency.. this is the trait which differentiates ordinary and the extra ordinary. The achievers and the normal people.

Every human being wants to succeed – be it in their studies, profession or passion. But most people just think and do not take enough action. Our action is what determines 90 % of our life.

Let’s look at it with some example.

An overweight person wants to reduce his weight by 10 KG. Many will have this desire– but will not take any action on it. And those who take some action –going for walk, gym etc- they make a definitive step and are far better than those who just think and not take any action. But .......their success purely depends on how regular they are in physical activities, diet etc. This is where consistency comes into picture.

Anything we do – we will be a novice at first; but when we do the same thing on a regular basis, we slowly start learning and improve gradually. We learn from our own mistakes and from the mistake of others too.

Once we start doing something new, wherever we go, things related to it will be visible to our eyes and we will meet the relevant people too.

To give a personal example, if I read my initial blogs, cannot control laughing how childishly have written and dared to publish them. But the good thing is starting somewhere and continuing to write. Wrote 1000 + blogs in a span of few years and improvement in writing is bound to happen.

The above example applies to most part of our life, if one wants to succeed/ progress. Being a beginner first when starting and becoming an experienced person after a few years. (There is a saying " All things are difficult before they become easy".. How true it is !)

Have always observed that anything we do with passion and in an intense manner for six months is bound to give a positive result / output..(Exams/ New entrepreneur/ fitness, applies to many things )

We get results for all our actions; but it does not happen immediately; Similar to how - a harvest happens few months after sowing a seed, the results will happen in its own course.

Anyone who takes action- positive or negative is making an impact on the universe in his own way !

If you think - you lack consistency.. do not worry. Anything comes with practice including consistency.

It boils down to how badly you need what you aspire for – that will make you passionate and consistent.

Start slow and keep at it regularly; if we do anything for few weeks consistently, mind and body become habituated and cometh the time, both will be ready for it and will do effortlessly.

Everyone runs their own race and their success depends mostly on their actions and how consistent they are in their pursuit !

Final note: This act of writing a motivating thought itself is a baby step- a beginning to me! Hope to continue at intervals and improve
