i'm starting over

Hey Reader,

Starting over isn't easy.

A new city, new job or a new routine - it can feel like climbing a mountain for the first time.

After being overseas for the last year, we just moved back into our Brisbane home, and I fell into the trap of trying to do and over-optimise everything at once.

πŸ‘‰πŸ½ Meditate daily

πŸ‘‰πŸ½ Set up my studio.

πŸ‘‰πŸ½ Unpack every box.
​
πŸ‘‰πŸ½ Workout 3 times a week.
​
πŸ‘‰πŸ½ Drink 3L of water per day
​
πŸ‘‰πŸ½ Walk 10,000 steps each day.

Realistic?​
​
Heck no.
​​
Overwhelming?

​
​You bloody bet.

Then I remembered a concept that James Clear (Author - Atomic Habits) shared:

Set the bar so low it’s impossible to fail.

Want to hit the gym?
​
​Forget the perfect routine. ​
​
Just walk inside, look around, and leave.

That’s it.

Once you’re there, your brain will say:
​
​"Well, might as well do something."

And boomβ€”you’re in motion.

I tested this with my home gym.

5 minutes. No pressure.

Within minutes, I picked up weights.

Did a few curls.

Then a few more.

Same with meditationβ€”just 10 minutes.

No more, no less.

It worked.
​
Momentum beats motivation.

So Reader, if you’re in a season of change, don’t go "all in".

Go tiny.

Start small.

Because once you start, you’ll want to keep going.

I hope this email serves you,
​
– Mamba
