There\u2019s two common ways you can approach working on your goals and habits:<\/p>\n
The first is progressive. This is where you start off easy, but make it a little bit harder each time, until you can eventually do very difficult things, with a lot less effort.<\/p>\n
The second is consistent. Do the same thing, with the same expectations, each time. You don\u2019t aim for growth, but maintaining the same, solid baseline.<\/p>\n
A progressive plan for getting in shape might have you start by jogging one mile, then two, three, until you\u2019re eventually running marathons. A consistent habit might pick a reasonable goal\u2014say jogging two miles, and sticking to it without change for a long time.<\/p>\n
