The task is not the point

We could try being consistent in running, skipping, or even skipping breakfast in an attempt to live longer, run faster, or feel a bit fitter. But in the end, the consistency that counts is when you show up for yourself.

Skipping can get boring, runners pick up injuries, and sometimes breakfast on a Sunday is nice.

Consistently turning up for yourself – perhaps that’s the consistency you need to focus on not the task that has taken your attention, for now at least.
