69 Actionable Tip – Small Wins

This month’s theme is Pivots and you can get the free worksheet at AffirmationPod.com/Pivot   Change is hard. No surprise there. Change interrupts us. It disrupts the system our brain is used to executing. It interrupts our habits, our behaviors, our thoughts, our nervous system...and the list goes on and on. Some of us experience a wake up call. Surviving a heart attack can lead to changes in exercise habits. In this episode I share about an elementary school principal who bought a high end treadmill after his heart attack and a psychologist/professor who started biking again and taking biking trips with his wife. Hopefully we don't need to go through something like a heart attack to precipitate change. It's never enough. We often find ourselves wanting a change and then with thoughts of there's never enough time, never enough motivation, never enough energy, money, willpower, skills, support...never enough of what it takes to make a lasting change. That's where small wins comes in. They can help because they are quick, easy and help us gain confidence. But they also have us practicing - on a very small scale - the new behavior we want.

Jobs are lost, hearts are broken, plans get changed, things go wrong. We’ve all been there. But when life gives you lemons, how do you cope? How do you navigate through grief with resilience? How do you control your emotions instead of letting them control you? Maybe you have unhealthy coping strategies. Maybe you bury your emotions, talk down to yourself, or power through the day without allowing yourself even a moment of rest and reflection. Sound familiar?
