It is easy for you to get inspired once from a movie and go and do fifty push-ups without stopping, but then months pass by and you do not do even a single push-up. It is easy for you to write a great blog article because of the lessons that you have learned from a great book that you have read recently, but then you stop writing and forget that you have a blog at all. It is easy for you to get up early and start working on your most important tasks once a year and then you get back to your normal procrastination mode of not doing your tasks until it becomes almost too late.
People who have been showing up consistently on a regular basis and have been putting consistent efforts in their work have always distinguished themselves from the rest of their peers, because of their relentless dedication and commitment towards their craft. They might have missed a session or two of not showing up and doing their best, but that does not stop them to appear once again at the scene of action and performing at their very best. They have not only built discipline and produced results that we are amazed by, but they have also been continually pushing themselves out of their comfort zones, tending to have more progress at their craft.
It might be hard to think that this is even possible in the first place, but in fact even you can become a person who is not frightened to show up at work and perform at your full potential and unlock the hidden capabilities that are waiting for you. It is usually sufficient for you to build up productive habits and have a purpose that drives you, which will serve as a fuel when you face troubles or difficulties.
It can be hard in the beginning and you might even get disappointed by the people around you that you are simply fooling yourself about the goals that you are working towards. However, you must have a strong purpose and remind yourself that every world-class performer was once a beginner that used to have a fresh start a couple of years ago. When they have been able to achieve something, so can you. Small actions that are done on a consistent basis have an incredible impact.
