Inconsistency is arguably one major obstacle to human activities and achievements. All major human pillars of activities i.e social, economic, religious, and political dimensions of life, this element remains to be a big obstacle. This article focuses on how to fight inconsistency in 2023
People from all walks of life have put effort and resources to fight it, technology gurus have had a hand in doing so, but still, it remains an obstacle. For a long, I have personally been shifting focus from one thing to the other. Start some online classes then stop, a little writing with a stop, do some small incomplete business, and many other aborted missions without a valid reason. This experience made me go to the drawing board and reinvent myself. Taking too much of something is known to be a true recipe for disaster.
What is Inconsistency?
In everyone’s daily activities, there are those moments in which you can do your task well even though it is repetitive and there are those instances when you feel bored doing the same thing and you find yourself abandoning it. Inconsistency is the inability to do something continuously without losing focus.
First Know yourself
Fighting inconsistency, though challenging, is an achievable task that is more intrinsic than extrinsic. As a first step to fight inconsistency, you need to master yourself before being the master of what you want to achieve. How does it happen?
Have a convincing area you want to grow in. This should be something you believe you can do and that whatever hurdle you go through, you are determined to achieve. If this first step fails, then the entire journey may not be attainable. In determining this, you should be SMART-Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Realistic, and Timely
Plan Daily and consistently
Have a daily plan in place to incorporate small steps towards your desired goals. Most people ignore small steps in their daily routines for they think they will remember and act. But it is easy to forget or ignore some of them. One good way to do this is by writing somewhere in your diary or a place which you record your daily activities. As you do this, watch out not to forget and give room to inconsistency.
Ruthlessly committing to the plans, you make
Commit yourself to your plan. Having a plan only is not enough, ensure you follow and where possible share with your coach or partner. To achieve this, you require utmost discipline. In some cases, you may have to forgo some things to pave the way for what you intend to happen.
Create a structure for your habits
Lack of structure demotivates, and it can also make you do things at the last minute. Robert Fulghum said that habits are sacred because they give deliberate structure to human lives and structure gives a sense of security which is the ground of meaning.
Measure your Progress
Legends say that what can be done can be measured, as you progress with your goal, ensure you measure so that you don’t end up doing it repeatedly without results. Measuring enables you correct where you have not done well and where you performed well. As you continue to measure, you will realize how you have fought inconsistency.
Final Word
As you start on the journey to fight inconsistency, you will realize that goals change to become habits that will be ingrained in you. Ultimately, you will become focused, successful and consistent in your endeavors. At maxbriefs.com, we educate, inform and disseminate information
