You know how it is sometimes?
A light bulb just goes off above your head and you realise something.
And see things differently going forward.
I had such a moment at Coaching Day the other day.
A member was talking about their eating and drinking over Christmas.
And how they’d “struggled to exercise control”.
Hearing “exercise” and “control” together made me realise something.
That exercising control is like exercising anything else.
Hard to start with.
Hurts if anything
## One of the reasons we start people off with an 8 week block. To get them past that initial sore stage. A free day or week is just the right amount to put someone off. A bit sore, a bit unsure what to do, don’t look or feel any different. Check myrise.co.uk/briefing-meeting if you like the idea of a programme actually designed to get you results ##
But it gets easier the more you do it.
We get better at it.
Like our bodies, our control only improves when challenged.
Not doing something we’re not bothered about wont make a difference to our control.
Choosing to do something when we don’t want to (or not to do it when we do want to) isn’t much fun, we know.
But what would happen if each time you did that you reminded yourself that this is the hardest it will ever be.
And that, next time, it will be a little easier.
That seems much more doable, doesn’t it?
Much love,
Jon ‘Alt Delete’ Hall and Matt ‘Panel’ Nicholson
