You leave anything you start after 4-5 days (or more). You get excited when you start something new, imagining yourself being consistent everyday. But, after 4-5 days, you just cannot do it.

You are consistent, have maintained your streak but one day because of some genuine reason, your streak is broken. The next day something else happens, and it eats 2-3 more days. Now, it's hard for you to make a come back.

For you, even starting it has become a big task. You want to start it from Monday but then something happens and you postpone it and it keeps going like this.

You start with excitement, become consistent for first few days but then procrastination creeps in. You take a break of a day, then for two days and then forever. 

You are consistent for a few days but then one day, something triggers a thought or a chain of thoughts, emotions, memories of the past, fears of the future, guilt of the past and you cannot just focus on the task in hand. In the end, you decide to do it later.

Either you will do it perfectly or you won't do it. Either you will get up at 5:00 AM or you won't get up till 8:00 AM. Either you will make your notes beautifully or you won't even try. Either you will start your work at sharp 9:00 AM or you won't do it altogether.

You start everything with great motivation but you cannot maintain the same level of motivation or energy after few days.

And nothing is working on you

Motivation, Manifestation, Power of Sub-conscious Mind - they all make you feel good for a day or two. 

You believe that you have found the cure, just like you feel, after taking a pain killer but your actions are not changed permanently.

We just need to decode how we became what we are; and then we can learn how we can become what we want!

Know the exact step-by-step path to become a Consistency Master forever!

Because it's not your fault if you are not able to be consistent in your endeavours. You don’t lack motivation or will power!

Motivation and Will Power is a limited resource which once used gets depleted

and requires some time to charge you up again. It’s not the real tool to develop consistency. 

You just need to learn the ultimate step-by-step process by which thoughts and actions are changed permanently and you can be consistent in anything you want!
