Why being consistent beats being talented in almost every area of life?
-
Talent is the most overrated predictor of success that society has ever collectively agreed to worship, because for every naturally gifted person who fulfilled their potential there are a thousand who did not and consistency is the single variable that separates people who remain potential from people who become results. Inspiration is a visitor that comes and goes on its own schedule while consistency is a decision that you get to make every morning regardless of how you feel, what the weather is doing or whether anyone is paying attention yet.
