This is how you create a habit. Lasting change. Progress. Nail a goal.
Through relentless and persistent effort. No exceptions.
No days off. No I’ll do it laters. No just this one times.
Consistency. Commitment. Continual accountability.
When we give ourselves leeway we are capable of creating escape routes for nearly every goal we will ever set.
This isn’t the only way to effect lasting change. But for things that truly matter. For things you want to stick. For things that require daily effort. No exceptions is the simplest and most effective way to go.
