What consistency teaches you when motivation disappears?

Hi guys, hope you are doing great. Today, I was thinking that yesterday, when I was publishing my blog, it was my fourth day of writing. So I thought, why should I not write about whats the key that I am writing even today? You all must be familiar with the words I am saying — the key: motivation and consistency.
Motivation is what people have at the starting of doing any work, and consistency is the action which individual repeats. But do you think what happens after some time to individuals who start with motivation but lack consistency? Surely, you know the answer — they move towards failure. The main key they lack is consistency. Motivation can give you the start to take off, but consistency makes you stable to reach towards success.
When I started writing on the first day, I was carrying motivation inside me for the skill of writing. I was carrying a lot of thoughts which told me that you are neither perfect nor average, but extraordinary. Surely, it is an over-exaggerating statement, but it carries a sense of motivation. I started writing after all this understanding, but after writing on the second day, I was lacking the power of those over-exaggerating statements that I had thought before. Here comes the effect of two days of consistency — I started to write while lacking those motivational thoughts.
From where does consistency come?
Consistency is not a grocery item that you can purchase from a grocery shop. It is a habit which develops inside people by following proper discipline — a word familiar to all but followed by some. Discipline is made up of strong control and commitments. If individuals start maintaining their discipline, consistency will automatically come.
Discipline is a principle of consistency. It gives you the strength to perform those actions needed for your goal repeatedly. If you start taking those actions repeatedly, you possess that consistency which leads people towards success.


People say consistency is the key to success — a key which can be developed through discipline. For success, people need small steps towards their goal. For that small step, you need motivation, but for achieving the goal, you need consistency. Motivation can give you the start, but consistency helps to maintain that start towards goals.
All I understand after writing for four days is that motivation is needed to start, but whenever it lacks, consistency will lead you towards your final goal.

Why I Decided to Start Writing as a Beginner?

As you could understand by the title only that I am trying blogging even without experience. Today only, I created my Blogger account for a single reason — the reason that many of us face nowadays, the inability to talk to anyone but wanting to talk out our views. Some say it’s an introvert kind of behaviour; I don’t think it’s introvert behaviour. In fact, I think it’s all about a person’s hesitation in talking to someone. I am the same kind of guy who doesn’t know how to convey himself to others. All I have is the hesitation of what if someone says something. Then I decided, why should I not write to express myself ? Writing is the only mode of communication I am comfortable with. Why starting felt scary? Starting to write is the most difficult part. All I was doing was thinking about what I would write and what if it doesn’t work out for me. There was a certain sort of confusion going on in my mind and a little bit of fear about whether I would write things well. The ma...

What hesitation taught me about starting something new?

Yesterday, I wrote a blog about writing a blog without experience. While writing the blog, I was having a certain sort of confusion or hesitation, which is normal for me. But I thought it is a universal rule that whenever an individual starts something, he or she faces certain confusion or has a fear of judgment. A fear which can be considered the biggest problem an individual faces before starting something new. But I thought, what is there to fear? Whosoever judges me, just judge. Fear is normal, but overcoming that fear is not normal for everyone. I know my efforts will help me overcome that fear. I made that effort yesterday and wrote. It felt amazing after writing a blog. I felt that no judgment can break my will to write. Hesitation and fear can only be beaten by the key known as consistency — a word which is familiar to everyone, but not everyone follows. I was also a non-consistent person, but I thought, why don’t I become consistent if it helps in my growth? Why d...

How Daily Writing Is Improving My Focus and Clarity?

Hi everyone, how are you all? Today’s topic is something that we all look for to do any sort of work. It’s something that is required even before the starting of any work, i.e., focus and clarity. Isn’t it, guys? Have you ever started your work without focus or clarity? I think no, because you can’t even think to start without these two. Guys, just tell me, do you like scattered things or well-mannered things? I think well-mannered will be the answer. So where does it come from? It comes from focus and clarity.  Earlier, I wrote about the thinking of thoughts or the web of thoughts that revolves in my mind for writing and not starting it; they all were scattered thoughts. But nowadays, I know what to write and how to write. That’s the work focus and clarity have done for me. I know from where to start, and I know what to write about my learnings and thoughts in the blog. The scattered thoughts got channelised into a single one, i.e., to start writing. Daily writing play...
