IF AT FIRST YOU DON’T SUCCEED………..

An Olympic gold may be won in seconds, but it is earned over years.

If there is any secret to success it is consistency. Consistency of thought, consistency of focus and consistency of effort. It is found in consistently doing what is required, day in, day out, come rain or shine.

In order to become a better runner, you must run every day. It doesn’t so much matter how far or for how long, as long as you run. Speed and distance will improve over time, but only as long as you run consistently.

It is this consistency that is the base for success in any field. Without it, any effort put in will be wasted and success will remain elusive. Deciding on, and setting goals, is easy. Achieving them needs for us to, daily, perform those tasks necessary for that achievement, the work, the training, the effort. This daily effort cannot be based on how we feel, it must be based on choice – we choose to do those things.

In the beginning this is not so easy, but once we have established the habit then we are able to focus on performing the tasks required at increasing levels of competence as we aim for our goals.

I guess, if there is any secret to success, then, it is to get started and keep going, not to stop, until we reach our goals.

So, start today, get the habit – and just keep going.
