If there is one piece of advice I have to give you, no matter what field you are in, whether you dislike your work, whether you think you are talented or not, the most effective and powerful advice would be to stick to your consistency, Bring stability.
The origin of the word consistency is very interesting, it was used in Latin language 1500 years ago today consistere, con means with sistere which means to remain steady or to be firm.
Consistency means to be consistent with the smallest change that you want to bring, no matter how small, if you have consistency, then changes start coming from afar, it seems that magic has happened or Then you can understand the Consistency.
Like you watch a show on TV, if that show does not come at one time and comes on any day at any time then would you like to watch that show.. no no.. Because this show never comes on time and that's why you can't get used to watching this show because there is no consistency about time, just like when you do any work at any time. You are not able to do that work for long because there is no consistency in your work.
Why is consistency so powerful?
Because this identity shifts, when we start doing some actions consistently for some reason, or if we learn to do it consistently, then a super power awakens in us which is much bigger than Habit which we call Belief.
It is known that I can change my behavior in a small way but of my own free will, I can give direction to myself, you can explain to anyone above 50 years who drinks a lot of alcohol and you tell him toleave alcohol, he will say that, nothing will happen with all these things, we have also seen the world. In fact, this person is also a victim of consistency, knowing that it is a wrong habit, by repeating it again and again, he has shifted his identity unknowingly, he has been convinced that he is weak, old habits cannot be changed. From this point we come to the next point which starts with negative tone.
Only one thing spoils someone's life, if someone does this thing, then he does his own harm, he will always be unhappy throughout his life and will also hurt around and that thing is distraction because when we are distracted, not only You waste your time and energy, we are also unhappy inside because "distracted mind is an unhappy mind" there is no consistency in our purpose in our action, so every day we have to think about where to start and spend the whole day wandering.
It turns out, in such a situation, no matter how talented we are, all the energy will be released in just starting, then we will not be able to do anything and we do not get any feedback until we finish something, we do not learn anything. Unless we learn something from our work, we cannot remove the talent that is sleeping inside us, nor do we feel confidence and satisfaction.
The biggest feature of consistency is Momentum if you ask me how logical or logical for any exam. If you want to complete the math part, then I would say any kind of reasoning logical analytical It is not a lesson or verbal chapter but an art in which we choose the right option out of five given options after thinking in a certain way in a short time, it cannot be memorized in 1 day but if you have momentum behind then any Art can be learned.
Consistency creates momentum in our work
If you are a writer and write books or any blog of yours and ask me how to write then I will say it is simple but not easy. You write a little every day, it does not matter whether you are writing well or bad or whether you have a mood or not to write. What matters is that you are trying to make it a habit.
If you have just started writing, then it is better to write 1000 words a week than to write 200 words a day and it will be good because with this we are practicing it for 15 minutes in a day, in an hour and we are doing it. Bringing it into our habit and this gives us momentum in doing any work, which is very important in starting any startup.
To learn any art, we need small break throughs, here small breakthrough means to jump from small micro level to big. When you try to solve a problem without any help in the ways that come to your mind or sometimes you solve very difficult question and then compare it with other given method and learn effective method then it is called are break through.
Like when we start learning a song, then the upper and lower voices of our throat do not open, due to excessive emphasis, it becomes a sore throat, but while practicing it is understood that it is not necessary to apply too much strength and practice for many days. Slowly the tone of the throat starts opening.
To get break through, you need constant effort on one thing, you need concentration, we can call this whole process Momentum that is why scientist, writer, artist work or think in different way every day on same problem or one dimension of art Likes because he is building momentum to move to the next level and this momentum cannot come without consistency
Japan's famous writer Haruki Murakami whose books and stories are liked all over the world tells in an interview that on the day when I am writing the Novel, I get up every day at 4:00, first work 5 to 6 hours then I go for a run of 10 kms or swim fifteen hundred meters, come home, eat, rest, then work till evening, listen to some music at night and read and I go to sleep every day at exactly 9:00 pm. I keep my routine the same, by doing this, the wandering of the mind starts decreasing every day and the creativity increases automatically. He also says one more thing “But it takes a lot of mental strength to do this”.
True indicator or magnitude of mental strength is Consistency. If you want to measure how combative you are, then you see the consistency of your difficult and necessary routines, it is necessary to keep trying once it breaks. Keep starting again because consistency is not a one time game but a lifelong process. Consistency increases only by our will power.
