A short YouTube monologue by James Laughlin arguing that consistency beats intensity for long-term success. The speaker says relying on short bursts of intense effort is miserable and that being willing to consistently do mildly hard things over the long haul leads to progress and eventual success.
Consistency is more effective than intensity. And there were so many times where in order to make up for not being consistent in doing a project or in creating something, I had to be intense for a short amount of time and it was miserable. But if you are just consistent, consistency beats intensity. And that's such good advice. Yes, I'm mine. It's been out there for a while. I wish I had understood that if you're willing to consistently do mildly hard things over a long haul, you're going to be fine.
