Consistency is absolutely one of the key success strategies to apply to any area of your life where you are seeking positive change.
It is also something I resisted for a very long time. I am a spontaneous soul. I thrive in environments that offer variety. I love the unexpected. I am a crisis and trauma specialist and worked in that field for many years. I am hard-wired that way. What I didn't like was routine, structure, sameness of any kind.
And then I applied the value of Consistency to a business that was perplexing me and frustrating me, and voila! The magic ingredient.
You can't deny it; without consistency, you will eventually falter in even your best efforts.
Consistency equals success. Ask any business building or growth and development specialist in the industry.
I found quite a few quotes when I "Googled" the subject. And what I came across was very interesting. There is a place where consistency serves you and a place where consistency keeps you stuck.
What works for me is to apply consistency to my business and my life in a very purposeful way while remaining fluid and flexible. When I am clear on what is important and what is not, I am able to make beneficial decisions in every moment.
For instance, Benjamin Disraeli said, "The secret of success is consistency of purpose."
You want to be really clear on your purpose for doing anything. Purpose is a common thread that runs through the tapestry of your life, holding it all together in a meaningful way.
If you are serving clients or customers, you want to be consistent in your communication with them and your service to them.
If you are dissatisfied with any area of your life, look closely at what you are consistently doing and not doing. This will tell you what is keeping you from having what you want.
You may have heard the quote, "It takes twenty years to become an overnight success." Eddie Cantor said it, and there is much truth in this.
Aristotle said, "We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act, but a habit," and it still holds true today.
Cultivating persistence and establishing consistency will put you on track for the personal success you desire.
Before you get into the daily doing that is required, do some inner work around clarity of your purpose. What are you here to do? What nudges at you? What drives you? What lights you up?
