Want to build strong, lasting health for life?
Don’t try to be “perfect” with your exercise routine or diet.
Trying to be perfect means if something goes wrong – and it will – you’re likely to get frustrated and give up. As a result, your consistency with healthy behaviors looks like this:
- 100% → 0%
- 100% → 0%
- 100% → 0%
Starting, then stopping. Pushing the pedal to the metal, then grinding to a screeching halt.
Luckily, there’s a better way: “imperfect.”
By embracing imperfect, you give yourself permission to keep going – even when setbacks inevitably happen. Suddenly, your consistency with healthy behaviors looks like this:
- 80% → 85%
- 85% →75%
- 75% → 90%
Ebbing and flowing, but always taking action.
And there’s a bonus: by embracing imperfection and all its setbacks, you give yourself the opportunity to build the skills and resilience to overcome them.
You know what that’s useful for?
Life.
This is why focusing on progress – not perfection – is a core pillar of my coaching program. It’s why my clients get results and build skills to manage their health for the rest of their lives.
Remember: you don’t need to be perfect to build strong, lasting health.
Imperfect works better in the long run.
Love you lots. Have a great day.
