Welcome to today's episode of the Mindset Mentor podcast. I'm your host, Rob Dial. If you have not yet done so, hit that subscribe button so you never miss another podcast episode. Today, I'm gonna be talking about how consistency is the key to your success. Now I will put all of my money all of the time on a consistent person over a motivated person. What's really interesting is that people always ask me how to get more motivated, but very rarely do people ask me the question of how do I just stay consistent. For some reason, everybody thinks that they want to be motivated. And I'm here to tell you, you don't want to be motivated. If you're sitting there thinking that you need to be motivated before you take any action, you will not get what you want in this world. But you're not searching for motivation.

When I look at someone who is extremely successful, whether it's in business, whether it's in the relationship, whether it's a professional athlete, it is the person who is the most consistent that always wins. I will always bet, and I'm not a betting man. But if I were a betting man, I would always bet on the consistent person over the motivated one. Motivation is fleeting. Motivation is fleeting. It's sometimes here. Most of the time, it's not. But I wanna be the person who's consistent, who shows up every single day. Think of, like, the gym, for instance.
