Motivation Gets You Started, Consistency Keeps You Going

Motivation is what gets you started, but consistency is what keeps you in the game...

It is easy to get motivated. You can get your motivation from hype, because a friend is into it, because it promises you a big reward, or because it fuels your big dreams. But starting something is different from finishing it to the end...

It is easy to start, but one can easily get tired along the way and end up stopping. This is why we must be sure of what we are getting into before we start it.

There was a time I hit the gym because I was motivated to lose some pounds. The motivation worked for some months, but then I stopped being consistent. At first, I started missing one or two days of my weekly sessions, then suddenly, I stopped going...

Another story that best explains motivation and consistency is the one I am about to share below...

This year, I rejoined the MoonWalk Fitness app. I said rejoined because I have an old account there from last year, but somehow, I do not even know how I got the account because I did not do anything on it. I kind of regret it because I did not get the Season 0 airdrop...

So I was motivated to join it again this year, and somehow, I fell in love with the app and its metrics. Now, I am fully invested in it.

When I started, I was asked to join a Solo game. There is an easy, medium, and difficult level. The easy level is 3k steps daily, the medium is 10k steps daily, and the difficult level is 15k steps daily.

I chose the 10k steps even though I could do 15k steps because I was highly motivated. But then, I know how things are. What if I was no longer motivated? It would be difficult to grind 15k steps on a daily basis.

So I chose the number of steps I knew I could be consistent with, and I am glad I did.

Because after a month, sometimes I just get tired of hitting big numbers, but I make sure to hit the 10k daily, and I am on a winning streak...

This app is not just making me fit, it is also rewarding me, and I am curious to know how far I would have gone in a year.

I am locked in.
