Staying consistent isn’t as hard as it seems—but it’s not easy either.
I struggled with procrastination for a long time, it was hard for me to consistently take action.
Then I read Atomic Habits by James Clear, which introduced me to the “2-Minute Rule.”
The rule is simple: keep it to just two minutes when starting a new habit.
The goal isn’t to make progress but to build the habit itself.
I found that this trick isn’t just for beginners—it works whenever consistency is tough.
That led me to develop a framework I call The Growth Equation.
The Growth Equation has two parts:
• Effort
• Volume
For growth, aim to maximize both.
But for consistency, make procrastination easier to overcome by lowering either the effort or the volume.
PS: Lowering the effort should be the last thing you do because it encourages to not try hard.
Using this equation can help you stay on track, even when staying consistent gets hard.
Hope this was helpful in some way :)
