Most people give up too early, assuming that if they don't see numbers move right away, it means they're doing something wrong. James had been posting casually for years with little to show for it, but two focused months of daily posting flipped the switch. That's the power of consistency: It feels invisible at first, but eventually it snowballs in a way you can't predict.

While these are certainly high-income skills worth developing, if you don't have this one underrated skill, you will literally get nowhere in your career or in your business. Regardless of how hard you try, how many certifications and tools you add to your skill stack, how good your resume is or how exceptional your portfolio may be, lacking this one skill can leave you far behind in the job market and result in you losing out to competitors in your industry and niche.

"It is, but I do think a switch can be flipped," Roberts explained. "But it doesn't feel good saying that, because I think there's a certain way you go about things and each day should be equally important. "Every little play, pitch, should be equally important. How you do anything is how you do everything, that adage, I believe in that. "Again, when you're playing a long season, it's hard to be that locked in every single pitch. But I'm not going to not try to ask our guys to do that."

Adding variety to your habit can make it more enjoyable. When a habit is more enjoyable, it can help us be more consistent.

Choose authenticity over image. Most of us are showing up into the world to be loved and accepted. We create a persona and start to bury ourselves.

When the storms come-and they will-it's the habits we built before that carry us through.
