6 Tips for People Who Struggle with Consistency

View Consistency as a Tool, Not a Test Simply put, consistency is one of the most reliable ways to succeed. It's a powerful tool, but it's easy to fall into self-talk that treats it as more than a tool, like "winners are consistent and losers aren't." View consistency as a tool suited to particular tasks, like using a powered nail gun for constructing a building instead of a hammer. When you view consistency as a tool rather than a judgment, you can explore when it's well-suited to the task at hand and take other judgments out of it. For example, you can remove judgments about whether you enjoy consistency or are good at it, and focus on how consistency can serve you in achieving what you want.
