In this self‑help segment, Paridhi Dhingra answers a viewer’s question about creating goals, making plans, and then losing consistency. She explains that inconsistency stems from losing clarity of purpose: when daily actions become routine, the original end‑goal and its benefits fade, draining motivation. To counter this, she proposes three concrete steps. First, maintain purpose clarity through daily affirmations and visualizations of the end goal, ideally 2‑3 times a day, to keep excitement alive. Second, establish external accountability—having someone ask, “Did you do it?”—so the individual feels answerable. Third, attach meaningful, expensive consequences to missed actions; when failure is costly (e.g., donating ₹500 to charity for skipping a gym session), the behavior becomes harder to ignore. By integrating these practices, the viewer can sustain motivation and consistency over the long term.

Your question is, I create goals, I create a plan, but I'm not consistent. In some days I break that consistency and then again I'm back to scratch one. Is that right? Here is your answer. Take your notepad and write down step number 1. Whenever we lose clarity in our purpose, we lose clarity in our action. What does that mean? The daily action plan that you have made for your life after some time becomes so routine, becomes so monotonous That we forget why are we doing what we are doing. We forget the purpose behind that action, and that is why we lose the purpose in action. What is purpose? Purpose is your end goal, right? When we lose the purpose and the end goal and the benefits of the end goal, that's when we lose our total motivation and daily action plan. Right now, you've decided, for an example, you're going to do exercise every day and you're going to lose weight by end of 3 months. Now, after 10 days, 15 days, 20 days, those daily action of exercising, diet becomes very monotonous if you forget why you started that in the first place. So that is why you must continue your affirmations and you must continue your visualization for the end goal as much as possible. If you continue your end goal manifestation every single day, 2 to 3 times in a day, you will never lose your motivation because If you think about it, when you start a plan, you're full excited, correct? But why are we excited? Because of the end goal. So when we forget the end goal, the excitement for the action is gone. Okay, so that's the first step. The second step, you need something called accountability. What is accountability? Accountability is someone asking you, did you do it? You being answerable to somebody, yes, I did it. Okay, and third step: consequences for failure. Whenever failure is cheap, we fail. Example: if you don't do your exercise today, what happens? Nothing happens. That's why we fail. The day you make your failure expensive, you won't fail. Example: let us say you say that if I miss gym even once in a day, that day I will give ₹500 to charity. Okay, now one day you will give charity, but what will you do the second day, third day, fourth day? Now it's getting expensive.
