... A huge strength of the SP System is that room for failure is built into it. The concept of "two steps forward, one step back" means that as long as you're successful 2/3 of the time, you're still being Consistent! So, if you miss some of your goals every once in a while, don't get discouraged. Just start it back up and keep improving!

... Sometimes you'll reach a plateau where it feels like you aren't improving any more. But recognize that a huge improvement in one area or another could be just around the corner. If you keep doing the system consistently for a long period of time, good things will happen! Be the tortoise, not the hare.
