Most of the time we focus on the things that really don't matter to us at all. We spend more energy and time on unnecessary things which literally do not bring a minimum result in our life. Thus, we try to speed up on everything we face and reach quickly as possible. I am not talking about a 100 meter race, but I am indicating about the life race. Life is simply not a 100 meter race to win, it is a marathon. Things happen, event comes and goes, however, the life we are living cannot be measured with a single event. Solving a temporary problem does not give us a permanent satisfaction. Life is simply a journey while we have multiple realistic goal.
Why speed does not matter in life
Life simply does not slow down or speed up by itself. Also, there is no rewind, pause or half-speed options. Whatever life you are having, its on your hands to make it easier or complicated by choosing the events ahead. You can be more efficient, you can be more effective, you can apply focus, best practices, and work smarter. Pick the right things, goals, and follow the right path. Following the right path is better than making things right. Making things right is always harder. It does not happen by choice but you need to follow the process that you like or not, and make it happen. Speed does not matter in life, because;
Your accomplishment of goals are not limit
You are not in a single race but you are in a journey
If you make mistake to choose the right decision, speed won't help at all
Slowing down is an illusion, for real, it gets harder or easier
Speeding up things doesn't mean you will get quick results
Consistency matters the most
No matter how fast or slow you go, keep the consistencies. This is the most common topic in personal and corporate life. It is exceptionally powerful to everyone. However, it is not easy to keep the consistency all the time. It sounds easy but when you try for real, you face this is the hardest to continue something such for a long time. Consistency matters the most because;
Consistency creates awareness
Consistency allows a proper measurement
Consistency creates self-trust and build confidence
Consistency helps to create loyalty
Consistency brings utmost result
Consistency shows the right path and help to decide the right thing
It develops discipline and self-control
It creates accountability and helps to track improvements and developments in a specific area
How to be consistent
Here are few things to consider to be consistent and become a more successful person;
Have some realistic goals
Allocate time to the things that matters the most to you
Know your motivation and what triggers you better
Check your progress and ask for feedbacks regularly
Celebrate any success and maintain momentum
Do not focus on other peoples' thoughts
Know your worth
You can accomplish anything and much more capable of doing right things. Use the right strategy, method, and keep focusing on the things you are aiming for. If you do not develop consistency of what you want, success will always be far away.
