Boring Your Way To Success

Lately, I have noticed a theme emerging from truly successful people when they describe how they operate, whether that be as a loving partner, nurturing parent, or in fitness, sport and in business. The real 'secret' to success is hardly a secret. Nor is it fast, sexy, or dramatic. In fact, it's boring, literally.

Continuous, consistent action is the mainstay of any progress, whether that be in a positive or negative direction.

Your habits define who and what you are.

I hesitate to use the word 'grind' because of its association with the current and quite unhelpful hustle culture. But it is a good word, nonetheless. Underneath all the hacks, tips and tricks for success, the dull, difficult and time-consuming trudge of persistent work.
