156 | Embracing Consistency on Your Worst Days: The Secret to Long-Term Success
Wed Feb 04 2026
Consistency doesn’t mean giving 100 percent every day—and believing that it does is one of the fastest paths to burnout. Real momentum is built on the days when energy is low, motivation is gone, and showing up feels heavy.\
In this episode, we’re reframing what consistency actually looks like and why the smallest possible action on your hardest days often matters more than your biggest wins. This is a grounded, honest conversation about sustainability, self-trust, and staying in the game even when life doesn’t cooperate.
You’ll Discover
Why operating at full capacity every day quietly leads to burnout rather than long-term successWhat the “minimum effective dose” really means and how to use it to stay consistent without quittingWhy your worst days—not your best ones—are what actually build momentum, confidence, and self-trust
