Who else’s Granny used to say that?

 

“Look after the pennies and the pounds look after themselves”

 

I know mine did.

 

Along with “Waste not, want not”.

 

And other similar proverbs.

 

Makes sense.

 

Although nowadays it’s perhaps more of a case of look after the pounds and the tenners will look after themselves I suppose.

 

Makes sense though.

 

All those little decisions, that are seemingly fairly innocuous, all add up to a worthwhile total.

 

And (you knew where I was going with this didn’t you?) it’s the same with our health, fitness, weight, etc.

 

We’d barely notice a 10% reduction in portion sizes would we?

 

A few tactical swaps for lower calorie, equally (or more) filling options.

 

That little bit more physical activity here and there.

 

Barely anything by themselves.

 

But, like those pennies, they add up.

 

Barely notice any difference in what you’re doing?

 

Isn’t a massive effort and inconvenience and a pain to do?

 

Isn’t complicated, difficult, restrictive and boring?

 

But, possibly takes a little longer to ‘save up’ than some options that are some or all of the above?

 

Sounds like a winner to me 🙂

 

Much love,

 

Jon ‘Lane’ Hall and Matt ‘For your thoughts’ Nicholson

 

P.S. You know the score. It’s myrise.co.uk/briefing-meeting to take the next step with us. Start fast then slow to a more ‘maintainable’ pace with one of our challenges. Or just go at your own pace to begin with. Your call either way. All we know for sure is you’ll get there and stay there quicker than with other options 🙂
