Summary
Lasting change is built on consistency rather than short bursts of intensity. By focusing on small, sustainable daily actions, one can achieve significant long-term results and avoid the burnout associated with overly ambitious goals.
The Lesson Learned
I learned that consistency is more important than intensity. I used to go all-in on new habits, like working out for 2 hours a day, only to burn out and quit after a week.
Overcoming The Obstacle
I shifted my focus to small, sustainable actions. Instead of a 2-hour workout, I committed to 15 minutes of activity every single day. This small, consistent effort compounded over time and led to lasting change without the burnout.
