Consistency matters
Have you ever promised yourself about a certain habit, and then suddenly, after a few weeks of persuasion, you just lost interest? Well, you are not alone. So many “books” and “articles” and short courses which may going to cost you around $10 to $30, they sell you a promise.
Let me tell you one thing, the core of all those “books” who are trying to point us to the same thing, in one way or another. Which is, “be consistent.”
It is impossible to mimic someone else success. If someone selling you this idea “copy my idea, and be successful,” it is a bullsh**t. No, you can't do that. You are UNIQUE. You are YOU. This means your mileage always will vary!
Here are some of the extracts I was able to get out of those books and articles to be consistent for any habit that you want to build:
Commitment
If you are a student or used to be, or employee somewhere or used to be, whatever was your situation, I am dead sure you had a routine — Why? Why you had that routine? Put, and you made a commitment to yourself, you woke up at a certain time, you take a specific route, in your mind ran some calculation about “routes” which one will be faster, etc. It was because you were committed, and you prioritized that activity.
