The Minimum That Matters. How low standards create consistency

Perfectionist standards are enemies of consistency. If your standard is "perfect workout" then missing one perfect session makes you quit entirely. But if your standard is "some movement, " you can maintain it through anything. This book teaches minimum viable standards as the foundation of long-term consistency. You'll learn that the people who stick with practices aren't the ones with highest standards-they're the ones with survivable standards, that "good enough" isn't settling-it's realism, and that having a minimum allows you to scale up on good days without guilt.
You'll discover that defining your minimum (the least you'll do even in chaos) transforms systems from fragile to resilient. You'll learn that the path to excellence often goes through good-enough, because good-enough is what survives disruption long enough to become excellent. For anyone whose perfectionism keeps them stuck, this shows how lower standards create higher consistency.
