Chasing perfect weeks backfires. When you expect greatness every time and fall short, you spiral into self-sabotage that kills consistency. Accept a realistic mix of great, good, okay, and bad weeks instead. That balanced pattern actually delivers better long-term results than trying to be flawless.
Biggest thing to remember is this: you do not need to be consistently perfect to get the results that you want. It's impossible to have perfect or great weeks every week. You know this. Having this expectation of yourself is only going to get you stuck because the moment that you fall short, you're going to feel terrible about yourself. This then leads to self-sabotage type of behaviors, which will kill consistency in its track. And it kills consistency in this track because the average when you're stuck in a start and stop cycle is very low, regardless of how hard you push in the periods where you're doing well. So all you need to do to be consistent is to stack a mix of great, good, okay, and bad weeks at the type of realistic ratios I just described. And if you can do that over a long-term time frame, that will lead you to incredibly impressive results.
