Consistency > Intensity

• Long-term results come from consistency, then intensity.
• To run a marathon, start by running a mile every day.
• To write a book, start by writing 500 words every day.

To win long-term, start with consistency, then build the intensity.

In the short term, you are as good as your intensity. In the long term, you are only as good as your consistency.

Most people need consistency more than they need intensity.

Intensity:<br/>-run a marathon<br/>-write a book in 30 days<br/>-silent meditation retreat

Consistency:<br/>-don't miss a workout for 2 years<br/>-write every week<br/>-daily silence

Intensity makes a good story. Consistency makes progress.

Long-Term Success Requires Short-Term Focus.

Consistency before intensity.

Start small and become the kind of person who shows up every day. Build a new identity.

Then increase the intensity.

Consistency becomes more important than intensity.

I've learned from experience that if you work harder at it, and apply more energy and time to it, and more consistency, you get a better result. It comes from the work.

"Consistency …… you will get your results ….BELIEVE”

Consistency is the key to achieving and maintaining momentum.

Reminder to self: be aggressively patient.

Execute relentlessly in the short-term. But zoom out to let those efforts compound.

Impatience with actions. Patience with results.

The best students understood the role intensity plays in productivity and therefore went out of their way to maximize their concentration — radically reducing the time required to prepare for tests or write papers, without diminishing the quality of their results.

We get what we focus on consistently."

Success is built on persistence, patience and consistence

Persistence guarantees that results are inevitable.
