Another Annoying Piece of Advice on How to Reach Your Goals...
"Consistency" has become such a buzzword due to social media strategies, and everyone talks about how important it is. But what exactly is "consistency"?
To be consistent means being able to do the same thing or work on the same task repeatedly.
They say:
“If you want to grow your social media platform, post X times daily”.
“If you want to learn a new language, you must take N classes weekly”.
The problem with all these Xs and Ns is that some people don't realize consistency isn't just about reaching something but also being able to maintain it. If you run every day to prepare for a 10k marathon at the end of the month but then never run again, you'll lose the fitness you worked so hard to build! And of course, if your goal was just to complete the marathon, that's fine, but if you want to develop endurance, that’s very different.
Another issue is that when you hear advice like “post 10 times per day on TikTok to grow,” isn't it overwhelming to even start with? You create your own consistency based on what you have on your hands and what you want to achieve.
Consider networking as an example: people talk a lot about it, but it doesn’t mean just connecting with five people on LinkedIn every day! It also means talking with them online and offline, interacting with their posts, meeting at events, etc. So you focus not just on numbers but on the quality of those connections! That's what consistency is about!
One other thing about consistency is not to expect quick results. Many of us want immediate outcomes when we start something. I have a big problem with that myself! I want to start something and be perfect at it right away; otherwise, I don't want to do it at all. But to achieve any result, you have to take small steps every day, even if they seem unimportant. If you want to be a published writer, you must write regularly and persistently!
That's where some people fall behind—working on the same thing over and over without seeing immediate results is upsetting. But you will stand out if you keep working. Your quality will improve over time, your understanding will deepen, and everything will fall into place. The secret is that there is no right formula for everyone, and if someone tells you there is, run away. It's going to be different for each of us.
It will take time to find a job, make a friend, or become better at something. Do not give up!
Here is some advice to sum up:
Find your own rhythm with the task you are doing;
It is not just about doing the task but also about the quality of it;
Be patient with yourself and give yourself some time: the more you do, the better you get with time
