Not everybody likes peaches. You are a peach. Now what?

Caring what other people think of you?

I have been thinking lately about how many things in the world do not happen because we are too afraid of what others think of us if we do them.

How many times do we end up not starting new adventures because we worry what others say before even attempting it (e.g., changing jobs, changing city or country, changing things that are important to us).

I know it is the reason I haven’t started, or has taken me longer to start, new things.

The fear of what others think of us is the best censorship. It is self-imposed.

Why coaching helps with weight loss: it is not magic

Because you do not need more food advice

If you have a weight loss goal, you may not think that coaching is the help you need.

We tell ourselves we do not know how to lose weight.

We tell ourselves that we need more advice, more information.

If only I had that new piece of information, the latest superfood, the right microbiome, or that eating pattern that solves it all, I would lose all the weight. The truth is you know that is not true.

How Often Do You Say, ‘I Don’t Know’?

What if you knew?

What if instead of ‘I don’t know’, you chose to knew?

This coming week, count how many times you tell yourself ‘I don’t know’ something, you do not have the answer.

You will be surprised how often this happens.

We often tell ourselves ’I don’t know’.

We prefer to ask others than to ask ourselves.
