I changed my mind on something relatively recently.. Fitness events. For a long time I kept saying: “I’m not ready.” “I need more time.” “I should be fitter first.” Then I signed up anyway — Rat Race coastal marathon — with about four weeks’ notice. And here’s the bit that surprised me most. It wasn’t …

But here’s a simple tool that really helps — especially when things feel all-or-nothing. Before you decide, just ask yourself 1 quick question. “I’m choosing to have this right now because…” …
