I think we can all relate to it, the moment of clarity you get when realising something really big you need to do. It might be the idea it fixes a problem, brings a new quality of life, something will radically change us and our existence or be the key to some sort of instant happiness. And sure, at times 'big fixes' bring big gains and rewards, they can also bring big disappointments and a feeling nothing has changed when it doesn't do what we had hoped for.
I find it's important to not overfocus on a big fix. They can bring too much hope and potentially lots of disappointment, particularly against the backdrop of consumerism we live in, where things are pitched and sold to us on a promise. I'd definitely recommend making small changes, taking small steps. Making adjustments gradually at a steady pace will more than likely bring a greater likelihood of fundamental change. Starting small, perhaps one gym session a week, one behavioural change, one dietary change, one change in spending habits. It's easier to implement that sort of change and build from it and be potentially less daunting. And, as we make said changes, it brings a positive narrative we've made that step and achieved it. This in turn helps to build greater momentum and achieve more profound change. Less is most certainly more here..........
