A lot of people tell you to focus on the subject and a lot of times we can't focus for various reasons. And the thing is that persistence is pretty much missing and people are chasing perfect life and perfect everything. And that never happens in their life and instead they keep on moving ahead.

So how does persistence helps you to go from mindset of broken perfection and gets the flow? Let's discuss how this works.

Perfection Requires Start


You have to start in order to do something in life. And that requires some level of efforts. If you lack that then you would pretty much lack a lot of things persistently. And that means your start would be affected too. Unless you start, you cant go towards perfection and so persistence is even missing in this flow.

Start Requires Focus


You have to eliminate 10 things to focus on 1. And so that is basically a focus. Something that you have to do in order to get perfect and do lot better things in life. So you have to consistently do the things in focus which would start your work. And that means you have to persist by focusing on one thing that is the way to go.

Focus Builds Flow


In order to be persistent at something you would need a certain amount of focus. And that focus builds the flow. So once you realize how the flow works you can keep on working towards similar things and keep going ahead. But you have to learn to focus as that is the key towards the flow of the actions in the question.

Flow leads to Persistence


Before you can achieve perfection you will meet the persistence and so you will have the flow that you always wanted. So some of the times you have to keep on pushing for the persistent life. You need to earn the flow in order to start the motion towards perfection.

As you can see like any other perfection is not final phase, but a temporary resting position. And the goal post for the perfection keep on moving. You have to understand that persistence is always a good idea when you want to bring clarity to your thoughts.

Conclusion


Persistence is something many people are not chasing over. Instead a lot of people are chasing the direction towards perfection. But the act of persistent effort despite the failure is missing and so the flow of the journey also gets missed.

Do you chase persistence or do you chase perfection? How do you get into the flow?
