This is something that has been on my mind for some time. Why do we put so much emphasis on consistency in weight loss, while so many other areas in our lives are about perseverance?
If you take a marriage. A long streak of perfect days doesn't make a good marriage. It goes with ups and downs and hanging in there. It's about choosing over and over to invest and learn in a relationship. If you have a fight with your partner, you don't think. To hell with it I'll just throw the whole relationship out! You work on it.
A career is not build on consecutive days of high productivity. It's about learning, adapting and sometimes you find yourself not matching with your environment. So you change it up.
Another thing is your financial situation. You might treat yourself from time to time. But you don't think, oh as I've indulged myself to tap into my savings account I might as well just clear it out. No, you enjoy the purchase and keep on saving after that.
Just some examples on how most of us understand that although we might "screw up" here and there, the next day, or week, or month we just keep going. Working towards our goals.
Consistency is great. And if you're able to do that, all the better for you. But if you (like me) screw up here and there, just keep going. Like you would in other areas in your life.
