The Lifestyle Guy's 6th commandment

(6) Consistency is the key to everything.

Only by doing something on a regular basis will you be able to attain anything in life.

FACT!

Consistency is like a regular rehearsal, it sets and forms new neural pathways within your brain, making the task easier and more fulfilling and pleasurable every time you do it.

It’s like taking small steps.

Remember Confucius: “A journey of a thousand miles begins with the first step”.

What he should have added, was that you also need to keep walking on a regular basis.

Think about it, even when you get up in the morning you have certain rituals that you have to go through to begin your day.

You get up, you go to the loo, clean your teeth, shower, have breakfast, get dressed, travel to work, look after the children.

Whatever you have to do to start your day!

This is an unconscious and ritualistic part of your life that is “consistent”.

If you ever find yourself breaking that “constant” you will probably find that things don’t seem to follow your normal pattern for the rest of the day.

To do anything well or to achieve some goal on a regular basis or to move closer to what you desire things need to be done consistently!

That is, rehearsed on a regular basis so it becomes a much a part of you as cleaning your teeth.

Once you start to be “consistent” it will make your new behaviour become familiar to you.
