The Power of Consistency When Working Towards a Goal

Many times, people will have the desire to reach a goal, but for whatever reason they lose motivation along the way.
One of the best examples of getting all excited for a new goal, only to quickly stray from the path is exercise.
Now, not everyone will view working out or achieving a fit physique as a success, but it serves as a good example of how easy it can be to fall short of a goal.
“Success isn’t always about greatness. It’s about consistency. Consistent hard work leads to success. Greatness will come.” – Dwayne Johnson

There are a lot of benefits of building habits, some of them include:

Improves Focus – With habits comes incredible focus. Questioning how to accomplish a goal is one of the most distracting activities we can take part in.
Creates Priorities – Sacrifice is a common occurrence when working towards a goal. You have to be willing to put certain activities above others if you wish to succeed.
Builds Trust – This goes along with the previous benefit on focus. You have to start to trust yourself when working towards a goal. Action is always better than inaction, and consistent action breeds results.
Reduces Anxiety –Knowing what your priorities are helps you relax and know you are doing all that you can to achieve the goal.
Increases Your Odds of Success – If you wish to achieve a goal or attain any other form of success, consistent effort must be applied. You have to keep working every day until your goal is achieved.
