4 Steps to Balance Consistency and Rest
Have you ever completed an audacious goal and been so glad it was over?
Your goal was a huge challenge, you accomplished it, and now you just want to take a break.
If you're like me, that break goes from one day to two, two days to a week, and before you know you've lost your rhythm.
We know consistency is king. But everyone can use a break before moving to the next goal and starting the focus over again.
How do we balance consistency with taking a break so we don't lose momentum?
Here is the framework:
- Celebrate: you accomplished your audacious goal - celebrate!
- Rest: identify a finite amount of time - give yourself a deadline to go on break.
- Focus: focus on your intentions and review your priorities to clarify direction.
- Next: identify the next audacious goal.
Consistency doesn't mean you can't step away. It means you keep your priorities aligned with your goals.
Celebrate. Rest. Focus. Next.
