Original Advice
“You are allowed to want consistency and ask for it - You can request clear commitments without apologizing for your needs. Name the behavior you value - honesty, timely updates, fewer pivots - and hold that standard calmly. Needing steadiness isn't clingy; it's healthy.”
Consistency Is Not Your Cage
You train people how to treat you. When you accept last-minute flaking and vague plans, you write the script for more of it. Your silence signs the contract. You call it flexibility; it reads as permission. The split-screen act exhausts you: reliable for others, optional to them. Stop translating mixed signals. Refuse two-faced plans. Ask for one language, one timeline, one face.
Consistency is not control; it is respect. Name the behavior you expect—honesty, timely updates, fewer pivots—and set the consequence. State it once, calmly. Enforce it without ceremony. Deadlines focus chaos. Clear commitments protect your time and your calendar. People who want you will align. People who don't will free your time. Either outcome gives you air.
