Take consistent action. This is a vital and integral component of the Black Belt Success Cycle. The logic of this is easy to follow and understand. If you breakdown your goals into bite-sized achievable actions, taking consistent action is also a relatively easy habit to achieve. Yet many struggle with following through with their commitment to consistency, making mastery a difficult process to perfect and implement.
The word consistency conveys an important distinction that can be easily overlooked. Defining and then adopting a daily routine that reflects your achieving your long-term goals is a simple, first step. The reason why people fade away and fail to follow up that first step consistently is because habitual action without mindfulness is an obvious foothold for mediocrity. It is easy to become complacent if you forget that mastery is a process and not a destination. The second you think you have achieved mastery in anything, you let your guard down.
Mastery is all about taking mindful consistent action. Three degrees to the left of mastery is consistent action without mindfulness - the friend of mediocrity.
“Success isn't always about greatness. It's about consistency. Consistent hard work leads to success. Greatness will come.” - Dwayne Johnson (b. 1972)
