System: Fire: Consistency & Motivation

Why is consistency and motivation important?
Change that happens quickly usually disappears just as fast. Quick fixes don't catch on because they're still not part of normal activities. Once the dust settles, people return to what they know. Fundamental changes that stick happen slowly - but steadily - over time, worked seamlessly into everyday life. When changes become habits, they're more permanent.

What role does consistency and motivation play?
Consistency is how you build your foundation, the first step to big results. If you're consistent, small setbacks won't kill your program. Think two steps forward, one step back. Soon, your foundation will be so strong that the results you get may start to outweigh your effort.

Motivation
Environment for Success
