Day 6: Consistency Isn’t About Streaks… It’s About Recovery
Description
Today’s episode wasn’t supposed to happen.
I was ready to throw in the towel. Pop in here and say "oh well, I tried, but this is always what happens..."
Before inviting everyone into my pity party I figured I should at least check and see what I was "supposed" to do today for my consistency challenge. It was talk about failure. And not just about it, but what it's not. It has nothing to do with failing, it all has to do with not getting back up.
The truth is that consistency isn’t streaks — it’s what you do after you miss. You can learn more about a person on how they over come failure than how they do when they win.
In this raw, no music, no editing, recorded in a Nissan Juke kind of episode, I talk through:
Why missing one block isn’t failure
The trap of tying your identity to your streak
How to reset after a rough day
Why “you vs. you yesterday” is the only metric that matters
A listener story from the phone challenge that hit me hard
And why tomorrow’s recap will be the most important day of the entire experiment
If you’re trying something new…
If you’ve fallen off the wagon…
If you’ve been beating yourself up for not being perfect…
This one’s for you.
You’re not a failure.
You’re in the middle of the process.
And we finish this thing tomorrow, together.
