Consistency, or the absence of contradictions, is one of the hallmarks of success. While variety may be the spice of life, consistency is one of the keys to successfully achieving any goal.
Let's have a look at Merriam-Webster's definition of consistency: “con·sis·ten·cy - agreement or harmony of parts or features to one another or a whole: correspondence; specifically: ability to be asserted together without contradiction.”
The agreement and harmony of your goal-setting activities can indeed create synergy, making the whole greater than the sum of its parts.
Consistency will not only save you time by helping you simplify and focus your efforts, but more importantly, it will help you set and routinely meet the expectations you have for yourself. And that equals a positive impact on your bottom-line results.
Whether we want to admit it or not, as creatures of habit, we all like, expect and appreciate consistency. When we learn or experience something new, we expect to be able to apply that knowledge on a consistent basis.
