Consistent Delivery

Much of today was spent tending to house upkeep… cleaning and shopping… As was this Sunday, and part of last Friday with the closet.
A house can’t run itself (luckily, my hubby is great about pitching in when I ask him to).
The thing is, a career can’t run itself either… Just as a home needs constant and consistent upkeep, so does a career… and not just for maintenance, but for GROWTH.
An interesting post on Ladies Who Launch broached consistency vs. intensity (which it seems many in the arts tend to confuse) in a recent post:
While intensity is a positive tool for facilitating ambition and sustaining momentum, at the end of the day, it is CONSISTENCY with intention not intensity that leads to success. I’ve seen many a business fail to scale and break through to the next level as a result of too much intensity without consistency.
I’ve learned the valuable lesson through the years, passion is what gets someone’s initial attention, but it’s through consistent delivery that one differentiates herself as a professional…
