Consistency brings you closer to your goals
Perseverance, perseverance, tenacity, stubbornness, continued effort or whatever we want to call it is something that we acquire from the day we are born to carry out any of our daily actions. Getting up early in the morning to go to school, institute, work...study, train, go to extracurricular activities after a hard day, etc. It requires great energy and enthusiasm, which will not always accompany us to develop them.
Tiredness or lack of reward after effort sometimes makes us give up on our efforts, but it is the constancy the one that helps us save these moments to achieve our goals which, without a doubt, we will be able to achieve sooner or later.
When we mark a goal or objective we have to know that it's not going to be easy to get it, that it will only depend on us to get to him. On our way We will encounter many difficulties, disappointments, things that we will not like., but we have an advantage, and that is that we already know! We must prepare for it and so when those difficult moments come, we will have our tricks and formulas at hand to overcome these potholes: sWe know our strengths, which are not few! and if we are honest with ourselves, we also know our weaknesses, which we must correct with work and determination to be able to get closer to our goal step by step.
On the way to the goal
When you start the path to achieving your goal Imagine that it is a video game in which you are the protagonist: you must reach the top of a big mountain. You begin the path; illusion is your source of energy; You are 100% and feel like nothing can stop you. In your mind there is only that image: reaching the top with a big smile.
You start the march and the days, weeks, months and years pass. You have already overcome great slopes, even vertical walls that are almost impossible to climb. It's much more than you could have imagined, but the top has not yet been seen. The clouds hide it and you still don't know what you have left. What's more, you have numerous setbacks that take you hundreds of meters away from the top.
The illusion, which was your main source of energy, It's getting smaller and exhaustion makes you doubt If it's really worth so much effort. Your image on the top of the mountain fades more and more.
DANGER! It is the moment when you have to use the resources you have acquired through experience of the ascent to the mountain itself. Now you are strong and wise, much more than in your beginnings. With complete certainty and without an iota of doubt, look again at the top. Even if you can't see it, you know it has to be there.
Consistency should be an essential value in our life, which we have to practice, because surely not only the achievement or not of our objectives will depend on it, but also whether we are people destined for success or, on the contrary, failure.
Fable of the hare and the tortoise
One day a hare made fun of the short legs and slow walking of a tortoise. But she, laughing, replied: "You may be fast as the wind, but in a competition I would beat you." The hare, totally sure that this was impossible, accepted the challenge, and they asked the fox to point out the path and the goal.
When the day of the race arrived, they both set off at the same time. The turtle never stopped walking and, at its slow but constant pace, moved calmly towards the goal. Instead, the hare, which at times lay down to rest on the road, fell asleep. When she woke up, and moving as fast as she could, she saw how the turtle had calmly reached the end and had obtained victory.
Moral: With perseverance and patience we will achieve our goals.
