Friday, August 19, 2011 Consistency is criticalContinuous improvement requires that we work consistently to improve. But we all tend to have improvement fits and starts...but most commonly stops. How can we keep it going? The key to consistency is building a habit, which is to say, making it automatic. We take a shower in the morning and brush our teeth because it has become habitual. It's simply what we do. We don't have to think about it. That's what we want to get to for continuous improvement. We want it to be such an ingrained habit that it wouldn't feel right if we weren't working on improvement. How do we do we make it automatic? Through consistent repetition. How do we keep the repetition going long enough to form a habit? Several ways.
