Focus and Consistency

10 replies
We all know we should dive in and take action until we see results but most times , it never gets done and we never get a chance to see the results we want to create . It is very simple and you probably already know , but over 80% never bother to do and create the result they desire

There is no secret , work smart and solve people problems . Learn the value of consistent hard work on smartest strategies .Consistent hard work brings success. In the face of the your biggest challenges , KEEP WORKING .

KEEP GOING . Things would always be easy . If making money online was that easy everybody would be making money . People face challenges . For some people , it is getting the technical stuff done , for some people it is creating a product , for some it find affiliates to promote for them , for others , it is getting people to buy their produc, whatever it is , you cannot give in and trow in the towel ... Be in this race for at least 5 years .


There would be problems around the way , you are notgoing to quit and lose your chance . If you would just keep going with constructive actions everyday and stay on track , you would reach your destination .

You probbaly know the story of the race between the hare and tortoise ... the story is very simple but true . the hare is more talented in running than the tortoise still lost race to the tortoise

because he took his ability for granted and did not run consistent enough to finish the race . the tortoise even though terribly disadvantaged by speed got to finish before the hare because of consistent effort .

Because of consistent hard work


It is not sprint like the hare thought it was , it is a marathon where you keep a consistent pace to reach the destination . It is hard to contine sprinting everyday ,

you would burn out but if you keep a slow but CONSISTENT PACE you would finish the race . if you just sprint one day and you stop , it is no good . You worked one hard day

you built all this momentum only for you to waste it . Don't sprint and stop hence wasting your energy and the momentum . Rather take action with 3 simple things you can do everyday and

keep building momentum until you reach your final destination .

    certainly focus and consistency are needed to achieve success but without the stron whys momentum will probably not be maintained. We need to explore and then keep in our view our reasons for wanting to do something. Those reasons are our leverage on ourselves and need to go deeper than I want money to pay my bills. That sounds good but keep asking why until you get to the root reason. Then keep those in front of you so when you do hit a bump, when your enthusiasm wanes, you can remind yourself why, refocus, and continue.

    Stunning message about being consistent and believing in yourself.

    Society & the media (to a large extent) places huge emphasis on 'Instant Gratification'. This is one of the reasons why many people start a process hoping for quick results & rewards and when the going gets tough they often sadly quit just moments from the winning post.

    No two people are created the same. This can be frustrating when trying to duplicate others successes as we automatically want to assume that if someone else succeeded at a process within x amount of time, that we too will be able to succeed in the same x amount of time. Our passions, experiences & motivations however are completely different to the next persons and when we compare our achievement of that goal to others, we are sometimes dissapointed that we are not closer to the goal.

    I always try to setup a realistic plan to achieve an end-result which includes steps which need to be taken daily to achieve the goal as well as the setting of realistic smaller goals which will eventually add up to achieving final success. It certainly does help to evaluate the process consistently, not only to ensure that you are moving ever closer to the ultimate goal but also to celebrate your successes along the way and to pick up on potential obstacles in time to change the plan for the better.

    True success is worth working for and worth waiting for, especially when one perseveres and takes positive action on a daily basis to achieve that success. Believing in yourself and your abilities definately goes a long way towards helping each and everyone of us achieve success.

    so true!

    focus and consistency can make wonders! Sometimes, you can feel scared of something due to some lack of knowledge or experience. But anyway, I try to make a plan and stick to it on a daily basis. In a week or so I can definitely feel more confident and thus persistent in achieving some goal, say in IM.

      At this generation, there are a lot of distractions everywhere we look around. Technologies, equipment and modern gadgets are to name a few of the distractions. Staying focus on what we do and where we want to go is a challenge to us. Can we stay focus on what we want to do with these distractions every where? Certainly, the answer is yes. One person can do that and that he/she has to stay focus and be consistent in everything he does.
      Consistency is needed for one's success, to go along with patient and perseverance. Stay positive in life.

    You are very right.
    It is not sprint but slow but sure pace that will make us reach Canaan- the promised land.
    Consistency is key in this business of IM, there are days I don't want to do nothing. Yet I have to sit and my computer and post a comment, write an article, do blog commenting, build link wheels, key word research etc etc and all these are not easy, it is hard work.
    I know the fruits will come one day and so I have to encourage myself that choosing IM was the right decision I made and so I keep working. One day I know, I will get there.
    Thanks for the great encouragement.

    My favourite parallel to consistency and focus is in proverbs 22:29,"Seeth thou a man deligent in his business, he shall stand before kings; he shall not stand before mean men."

    It is great but I would like to add that from very beginning we should be very alert, so that we can feel the response to anything new immediately, if good persist but if bad change a little and wait for the reaction, and keep following this continuously. This if done smartly will yield.
