Success stems from doing what most people are not willing to do, such as embracing consistency and diligence. Consistency is highlighted as a crucial virtue by Charlie Munger, as it significantly increases the chances of success. Humans struggle with consistency due to their attraction to novelty, making it a challenging virtue to uphold. Redefining success as avoiding inconsistency rather than focusing solely on achievements shifts the paradigm. Doing the same tasks repeatedly, even if they seem mundane, is highlighted as the key to success. Boring tasks such as following a meal plan, preparing for meetings, or carrying out routine work are deemed essential for success. Consistent effort, preparation, and attention to detail are emphasized as crucial elements in achieving success, along with the importance of putting in the necessary work to achieve desired results.
