W.I.N. Wednesday: How progress is achieved.
“Progress is not achieved by luck or accident, but by working on yourself daily.”
Epictetus
This goes back to the wisdom from I shared in a post on December 18 from James Clear, “Consistency is more important than Intensity.”
Progress is the result of the habits and the rituals you develop. The little things you do day in and day out. The things that you are clear on why they are important and you have made them a priority and part of your daily rituals. In that moment of doing, you are not going to see some amazing outcome. And you are ok with that because you realize it is a journey and your focus is on the consistent effort and the process.
Being healthy is not the result of one great workout, one healthy meal, one meditation session, or one walk in nature. Likewise, being unhealthy is not the result of one skipped workout, one bad meal, or one missed meditation session. If you miss a workout, eat an unhealthy meal or skip your daily meditation session you are just one decision away from getting back on track.
Progress, like health and wellness, is the accumulation over time of your daily choices, decisions and priorities.
What’s Important Now? You are a work in progress. Work on yourself daily. Focus on what you control, which is consistency, effort and process.
Take care.
