Consistency

Executing

"Do it again and again. Consistency makes the rain drops to create holes in the rock. Whatever is difficult can be done easily with regular attendance, attention and action." - Israelmore Ayivo

Balance is important to those with strong Consistency talents.

I thrive on structured process. In fact it gives me a sense of security knowing exactly how something should be done (with no steps missing). Other people get bored easily by doing repetitive tasks, but I do not. It is natural for me. I do however believe that the power of a process lies in its application across the board. In other words what I must do, you should do as well. Having different processes for different people is illogical in my mind. Equal processes means that each person's workload can then be measured and fair.

MY unique TALENT

MY SUPerpower

Habitual

MY instinctive Ability

You have the natural ability to precisely and repetitively follow a set process without variance and without getting bored.

The drive I naturally bring

You bring a relentless drive for uniformity of implementation. Your natural resilience in following process means that you provide surety and trust for others that you will ensure that things will be done in the same way, every time.

What can I naturally create?

Fairness is an essential component of any successful society. You create fairness through ensuring processes that apply to one, apply to everyone. You create security against discrimination and abuse. You create policies and procedures that help teams and organizations maintain their integrity while accomplishing their mission. You can easily and quickly make judgments that are fair to everyone involved.

MANAGING MY EXPECTATIONS

I like...

Knowing exactly what the process is and then being left alone to follow it;

to make sure that the process applies to everyone in the same way;

to stick with what I know works;

working on something that involves rhythm (or a consistent pattern).

I connect easily to people who...

Are fair and consistent in how they do things and follow the process correctly, all the time.

I am NOT known for...

Enjoying change, doing any special favors or deviating from a process that I trust.

I get frustrated or distressed when...

People insist that I do things in a different way to what I know works for me;

moving into a new environment where I am not sure what is expected from me in terms of actions;

I have to work in an environment where processes are not clear, and not well understood by all, and so are open to be applied ambiguously and / or inconsistently.

I can be perceived by some people as...

Being inflexible or traditional or set in my ways.

how best to work with me:

Show me the process as soon as possible. Ensure that I understand it - it may take time but be patient.

I don't mind being left alone to quietly do what is required of me.

If you need me to change the way I do something then take the time to ensure I understand why and that I fully get how it should now be done.

Understand that I don't do favours, or change the process for a 'special request', so don't put me in a position where people will expect me to.

BEING MORE EFFECTIVE

know this:

You try to treat everyone equally by having clear rules and applying them consistently. You’re offended when some people gain an advantage because of their connections or the 'games' they play.

You believe that people work best in a consistent environment where the processes apply to everyone equally, and you work to create that type of environment.

While you may see yourself as a guardian of what is right and a warrior against special treatment, some people may not appreciate you for assuming that responsibility.

try this:

Focus on teaching the values of consistency and fairness to those around you to build trust.

Take time to think through the processes, habits or rules that are closest to your heart. These might be based upon certain values or guidelines that you consider to be 'non-negotiables' in your life. The greater your own clarity about them, the more receptive you will be to individuality within these boundaries.

Your role in a group can be to level the playing field. Seek opportunities at work or in your community to help provide disadvantaged people with the platform they need to show their true potential.

Stay focused on performance. Cultivate a reputation for recognizing those who really deserve credit.

Ensure that respect is always given to those who truly perform well. You can be the conscience of the groups you participate in.

Facing your personal challenge:

Because you are naturally habitual, you have to regularly ensure that the habits you are developing are ones that will lead to success and not to failure.  Leave them too long and they will become extremely hard to break. More importantly, you have to be careful that what you expect from yourself and others is reasonable.

Watch out for: Doing what you have always done simply because it is habit. Re-evaluate regularly.
