Apathy can be one of the biggest enemies of consistency and creativity. It's weird to be creative and consistent on one hand while battling indifference and apathy on the other, but it does happen. One reason can be because life gets in the way. Another reason can be because time gets taken for granted. A third can be because it's easy to just say, "I'll get to it in a little bit." All of a sudden, "a little bit" becomes "later on" and "later on" becomes "damn, I still gotta do that, huh? Oh well, whatever," and when the latter comes, it's trouble.
