ANNOUNCEMENTS: Hot Toddy Triple Q next week

COT:

Brad Stulbeg:
Consistency is more important than intensity. If you win at consistency, you have a good chance of winning at everything else. Consistency means:

– Showing up on good days and bad days.
– Zooming out and playing the long game.
– Focusing on the process over outcomes.

James Clear:
If you want to maintain your sanity, reduce stress, and increase your odds of long-term success, then you need to plan for failure as well as focus on consistency. Research from Stanford professor Kelly McGonigal has shown that the number one reason why willpower fades and people fail to remain consistent with their habits and goals is that they don’t have plan for failure.

Planning to fail doesn’t mean that you expect to fail, but rather than you know what you will do and how you will get back on track when things don’t work out. If you’re focused on being perfect, then you’re caught in an all-or-nothing trap.
Meanwhile, if you realize that individual failures have little impact on your long-term success, then you can more easily rebound from failures and setbacks. Being consistent is not the same as being perfect.
