“Consistency beats intensity. Consistency beats volume. Consistency beats passion. Consistency dictates results. Consistency is what defines character.” — Rich Roll
I want to be consistent, I wish I was consistent, I wish I could be consistent.
I am excellent at starting things. I have always said my preferred job role would be to come up with great ideas to solve problems.
Not solve the problem myself but come up with a great idea on how to do it.
But the thing with life is there is always the backend admin work that no one likes, that needs doing.
The magic behind every mastered skill is consistency in one's work.
I struggle with that.
Being consistent in life is so difficult. It is weird because it should be the easiest thing, it is after all just doing the same thing over and over again. But bruv, I get bored as hell and super lazy, to be honest.
I just want to skip to the end where I get all the accolades and results.
Lol... I really have grown. This is normally the part where I get down and start to hate myself for being so shallow and greedy.
But I am human and it's okay to get shallow, it's okay to catch and 'un-catch' random feelings. The Lord always provides a way out of every temptation. So it is okay to just be.
"No test or temptation that comes your way is beyond the course of what others have had to face. All you need to remember is that God will never let you down; he’ll never let you be pushed past your limit; he’ll always be there to help you come through it." - 1 Corinthians 10:13 (MSG)
My struggle with consistency still goes on Eve. The easy thing to do is to hope I am better this time next year. But instead, I am going to be content with my inconsistency. because this proves that I am taking my life a second at a time and that's okay.
Consistency is not perfection. It is picking off where you left off. It starts from where you are. It is resuming from where you stopped. Eve you are consistent, It might be a negative form of consistency if there is such a thing. But you are and I am proud of you.
Be you.
