“What are the challenges of staying consistent?”
I’ve recently set a new goal for myself, to be able to document my journey on a daily basis.
No specific length, simply an exercise for me to learn from my experience on this planet.
What I’m learning from my interactions with others, how I am processing life, etc.
A few weeks into the new routine, I’ve hit a roadblock.
Nothing too extreme, but significant enough to set me off course.
Over a week ago, I went back home for the holidays to visit my parents and spend some time with them.
During that time, I tried my best to maintain the momentum gained while starting this new routine in Austin.
But, it was becoming increasingly more difficult to do so.
Part of the reason why I believe I’ve experienced this is due to the change in the environment.
At first, I had thought that all of these limitations were all due to a story I told myself.
Now, maybe there’s a grain of truth to those limitations, but I also think there’s truth to the fact that it is a new environment.
In Austin, I was able to “control”, to a degree, my environment.
Over the years of living there, I have learned different ways to create my creative space.
I understand the importance of being in a quiet space with no one else, but, “Me, myself and I.”
I have found specific spots where creative thought flows through me without even thinking about it twice, oftentimes either sitting at the kitchen table or laying down on the couch.
I now understand that with every new transition, there may come a set of new changes or challenges to work through.
Based on your experience, “what have been some of your challenges in staying consistent?”
