Focusing on Today: Why Consistency Requires Letting Go of ‘Every Day’ Mentality

So if you want to be consistent every day, step No. 1, abandon every day. What? Abandon every day. You can’t do something every day. Focus on today. Okay? When we think about every day, successes become failures in my mind. So if I say to myself, I’m gonna meditate every day and I meditate for 39 days and day 40 rolls around, did I meditate every day, Mel? You did for 39 days. It’s still a failure. So now I’m looking at 39 days of success and I’m calling it a failure because I didn’t do it on day 40. We demotivate ourselves. Hmm? So we wanna focus on is the action. Focus on the present, focus on doing the thing.
