Give Me Consistency

Consistency is good.

Some of you don’t want to hear that, and I get it. Heck, Ralph Waldo Emerson is one of the greatest American minds in history in my opinion, and he notably said, “Foolish consistency is the hobgoblin of little minds.”

But I’m not talking about foolish consistency here. Also, I’m a little unclear as to the nature of hobgoblins and why they thirst so badly for little minds, but that’s for another day. What I’m talking about is consistency. Consistent performance that creates a certain expectation of top-flight repetition — like a Denny’s breakfast at 2:15 a.
