Monotonous consistency. Ugh!
Sounds horribly boring, doesn’t it?
Who would intentionally choose that for a daily tagline?
My brain screams, “Noooooooooo!” with added reverb effects when it sees those two words together.
Yet.
Monotonous consistency is the fuel that runs the engine of dream fulfillment.
It separates the small pool of true professionals from the enormous pool of amateurs.
It’s what helped me write and publish my latest book, The Far Unlit Unknown.
It's behind me showing up to the mic for more than 450 podcast episodes.
It helped me raise two incredible humans. Then launch them into the world as confident, self-assured citizens.
Without monotonous consistency:
- Books don’t get written.
- Companies don’t get built.
- Deeply satisfying relationships never come to fruition.
- Dreams are never realized.
Monotonous Consistency Is the Fuel Driving BFG
Those who embrace monotonous consistency about achieving BFG* will experience something most people won’t.
Reminds me of that old story about the three kinds of people in the world:
-Those who make things happen
-Those who watch things happen, and
-Those who wonder what happened
Most people fall into the third category.
The few in the first category practice monotonous consistency, guaranteed.
The rest are all over the place, hopping from one shiny leaf to the next. They tell themselves it feels like movement. They tell themselves it feels like they’re doing something.
But that’s a fragile illusion.
Best to shatter that illusion with the tactical pen of monotonous consistency.
Then watch yourself making things happen.
*big f*cking goals
