# 20 - SYSTEM improvement - Consistency & Persistency

Easier Said Than Done - Major Weakness

I started this blog with the intention to write every day about the improvements I want to make 'everyday'. Imagine that, everyday....not to talk about current issues or what appeared in the daily newspaper, but to talk about major improvement that I did which in effect translated into a better life for me and those around me!!!!

Clearly that was impossible because I just couldn't find the time nor the strength to do it everyday. So I decided to make it a weekly endeavour because in 7 days time surely I must have one improvement in my life which I can target to make and be able to start to do it and maintain doing it for the rest of my life.

Mmmm.....even that is easier said than done. For instance, it has been nearly 2 weeks now since my last improvement note. And I hardly can pin-point one significant improvement which I've made since then. There were various small improvements but none deserve to be given an entry in this blog coz the effects on my life as a result of the improvements have not been significant too.

So for today my improvement is to realise the importance of being CONSISTENT and PERSISTENT in whatever I do. By being consistent, i.e doing things in a timely and regular intervals, my new actions will be converted into HABITS which you know OLD HABITS DIE HARD. Once it becomes a habit then it will be my AUTO/ROBOTIC actions. For example, once we get up in the morning, we automatically (like a robot) brush our teeth. There's no need to think about the need to brush our teeth, we just do it.

And by being PERSISTENT, i.e doing something until it is completed no matter what the challenges are, I can achieve whatever I want, as long as I must want it REALLY BADLY and persevere to get it! And in this case, I want to reiterate today that I REALLY WANT TO TRANSFORM MYSELF INTO A BETTER (richer,more successful) PERSON and I will persevere to achieve it !

Yes it's easier said than done. It's easier to write and forget. But I'm determined to make it from today. I'll set one improvement to make in my posting today and by my next compulsory posting date (i.e 12/9/2009) I should have started to make the improvement I intended to make in my life.

So, starting today, I want to start this new improvement......REVERSE PARKING. I will explain what it is in my next posting when I've successfully implemented it, insya'Allah.
