You’ll have noticed that many of these blogs question conventional ways of looking at things.
 

Many of our standard thought processes in our society don’t always serve us all that well.
 

There’s no right or wrong, of course.
 

Just it’s sometimes useful to question our ways of viewing things.
 

Maybe try a new way in for size.
 

We might go back to the old way if we think that’s best.
 

But always worth exploring other options, no?
 

Here I’m going to question the thought process of ‘having a bad week’.
 

Or month.
 

Or year.

 
As in “I’ve had a bad week eating wise”
 

My question is this;
 

When does a week become bad?
 

How much of it has to be not as we’d like before we give it that label.
 

It’s quite a ‘black or white’ label, isn’t it?
 

So we must have a definition of how many of those 168 hours have to be ‘bad’ before the whole week becomes so, surely?
 

How many of the 700 or so hours are bad before the month is.
 

How many of the 21 or 90 meals we consume go wrong before we use that label?
 

When you look at it like that, it doesn’t make sense does it?
 

Essentially writing off a long time period because a short time period hasn’t gone well.
 

And as soon as we realise that we can’t “have a bad week”……….
 

We’re just faced with the decision in front of us.
 

Shall I exercise or not?
 

Shall I eat ABC or XYZ?
 

Shall I have another?
 

Facing those decisions individually whilst considering our goals and what’s important to us……….
 

Is much easier when we’ve dropped that ‘bad week’ label 🙂
 
 

Much love,

P.S. Quick reminder that there’s that 5lbs Christmas Leeway for challenges running through Christmas. So unless you, or a friend, are planning on gaining more than 5lbs in the handful or so of days of excess of Christmas, then there’s no reason to ‘leave it till January’ –> myrise.co.uk/briefing-meeting
