The Unexpected Connections that Make or Break Your Best-Laid Plans

The Unexpected Connections that Make or Break Your Best-Laid Plans

Do you sometimes do things that are definitely not good for you? Do you ever get involved in situations that are not in your best interests? Do you have habits that you’d prefer people not to know about? Do you ever regret your actions - but then manage to repeat the same behaviours that caused you to experience disappointment in yourself? And why are these traits so important to your future health, happiness and success? It’s an intriguing area to explore for one very important reason. Can you guess what it might be? It’s because -

?the way we do one thing is going to show up in all other areas of our lives.

This concept opens up a huge area for exploration and discussion. When we consider the inconsistencies in our lives, we can recognise clues about our habits and behaviours that could provide evidence about how we’re secretly hindering or blocking our progress. When you think about it, the idea makes complete sense. The way we’re doing one thing is going to show up in all other areas of our lives.

It's not what we do once in a while that shapes our lives. It's what we do consistently.

― Anthony Robbins

If you consider the importance of having a good eye for detail, for example, this is clearly a key skill that bestows important advantages in many areas of our lives. An attention to detail reduces errors, spots mistakes and corrects inconsistencies. But when we choose to live in our own private version of chaos, creating an environment where we can’t find things or work through our tasks in an efficient and organised manner, we often sacrifice success and allow opportunities to slip through our grasp. When our daily tasks dominate our lives and trigger stress and anxiety because we aren’t in control, everything suffers.

It might be a scary thought but there are some major companies today who like to inspect a prospective employee’s car to see how they maintain their private means of transport. Does that surprise you? In some ways, this might seem a little strange but the principle of consistency shows up so often that the way we look after our cars is likely to show up in other areas of our lives. And that includes the way we work. They’re obviously looking for evidence that an individual is in control of their lives and can perform basic maintenance tasks such as keeping their vehicle clean and in good working order.

If you're aiming at the top, consistency is the name of the game.

― Olawale Daniel

We could equally apply the same principle to our personal lives. Now, I acknowledge that this is a sensitive area to explore but there have been far too many entrepreneurs over the years who’ve made a fortune and then lost everything in the wake of some very poor choices in their personal lives. Perhaps, in the deeper levels of our consciousness, there might be a lingering pool of doubt about whether we truly deserve to enjoy the rewards of happiness and success. If this is the case, we’ll unconsciously gravitate towards unhelpful or destructive behaviours that are absolutely designed to derail our lives and destroy whatever we’ve created. And that can easily include our family lives. It’s as if we refuse to allow ourselves to enjoy the sweet taste of success. Destructive behaviour can also turn up as a result of stress but our choice of how we wish to deal with the pressures reveals much about our inner emotional landscape.

Success is neither magical nor mysterious. Success is the natural consequence of consistently applying basic fundamentals.

― E. James Rohn

In many ways, the first step on the pathway to consistency is to learn to clean up any mess that you’ve created. It doesn’t matter if the mess is physical, emotional, mental or connected to your relationships. Learn to introduce order into your environment. It’s a surprisingly effective way to feel that you’re exercising control over your life and it shows up in some of the seemingly trivial aspects of how you’re living. Cleaning your house or your working area is a very positive way to influence your environment. And it feels good. The evidence is right in front of your eyes. At a deep level, you recognise that you’re fully capable of creating order out of chaos. You can exert control over your environment and this represents a very positive indication of personal empowerment.

The changes can be felt immediately. Make a clear commitment to speak the truth rather than hide behind a veil of deception about what you’re doing. Too many people are suffering from the burden of leading double lives. It’s far too stressful for humans to live like this. Make everything much simpler, both for yourself as well as for others. Take a good look at your life and pinpoint the areas where inconsistencies are showing up. Where do you feel that your life is out of control? Are you taking good care of your body? Are you getting enough sleep? How’s your nutrition? The message is simple enough. Respect yourself. Set higher standards for your personal conduct. Respect the value of your word. Adopt the powerful principle that the way you’re doing one thing is going to show up in other areas of your life. If you poison the well of your life, every sip will be toxic.

However you consistently show up may not be who you think you are, but it’s who you’ve become. If you want to be your best self, consistently show up as your best version.

― Richie Norton
