Consistently what? (100th post!)

“Consistency is contrary to nature, contrary to life. The only completely consistent people are dead.” - Aldous Huxley

“Consistency is a virtue for trains: what we want from a philosopher is insights, whether he comes by them consistently or not.” - Stephen Vizinczey

The question is consistency for a fool or for a man of wisdom. It has been said that "what we do consistently will define our character." As to the word "consistency" it is a friend and a foe.

Here is what I mean by that. To be able to be in high second dimenesion (check http://thebsidetothetruth.blogspot.com/2010/04/third-demension.html) is to be highly productive with money. Producing money, being financially disciplined, and continually seeking counter balance in life. Consistency is a temporal principle that is anchored to a vision of what seek to create results with. Being consistent is a short term-long term confusing subject. To be consistent at values and principles is a must, yet to be consistently idle is where the foe comes in.

Many times I will hear people say, "Well I may not be very successful, yet I'm consistent right?" Well that is pretty much the phrase of an idiot... beings when you are idle, you actually begin to decay inside. Physically, mentally, and Spiritually you die when you remain idle. One must continually be seeking wisdom. In my young years wisdom has become a discovery of something I would have never guessed. That is just what wisdom is... learning what you never thought was possible!

The B Side To The Truth is be consistent with values and principles... with everything else stretch yourself to get out of your idle state and increase your wisdom through experience. Don't let consistency end up being your enemy.
