It is the small things you do consistently that make the biggest change in your life. Many of us start working on a goal with major intensity and excitement. But more often than not, that kind of intensity is unsustainable.
We often overlook making the small changes because we are motivated and want to make drastic changes. We prize those dramatic changes more than the small ones because we see them as more valuable. But are they?
Let’s say you want to radically change your life and lose a significant amount of weight. Your success is going to be found in what you do every day. What you eat, your physical activity, the quality of your sleep, your hydration level, etc. The beautiful part of making the small daily changes, is that if you have a bad day and make bad food choices, it is literally just one day that got messed up. You can acknowledge that you had a bad day, accept it and continue to make choices that support your goals. Just like one day of eating healthy and exercising isn’t going to cause you to lose a lot of weight immediately, one day of making bad food choices isn’t going to derail all your progress.
Consistency will always beat short term intensity.
