Hello and welcome to this episode of ESG Fitness Podcast.

I thought I would start with a quote that I loved this week from James Clear.

And it says, be forgiving with your past self.

What's done is done.

Take the lessons with you and release the guilt.

Be strict with your present self.

Win the moment in front of you right now. Be strict with your present self, win the moment in front of you right now.

Be flexible with your future self. There are many paths to success. You don't need life to be a

certain way to live well. And that, I just felt like that was exactly how you should approach life.

Because sometimes I think you can get in your head and be a bit, what's the right word?

Maybe not hard enough with your current self, but too hard on your past self.

And then, yeah, I think everybody tries to have this fixed future.

But the only thing that is certain is that things are probably not going to go exactly as you had anticipated.

So stop worrying about things that have never happened yet and trust in your ability to adapt

to the situation that you end up in. Anyway, I thought that was quite good. And then the other thing

I was thinking about was just this observation that I've had more around myself and maybe other people resonate with it.

But I think it's quite universal.

And that is that whenever I feel low, I'm normally overthinking.

And the solution to overthinking, at least for me, is to try and be present.

And the best way for me to be present, by the way, this is so different for everyone. Some people are like meditation or grounding or, but yeah, those are the kind of main ones.

For me, it's a brain dump. Like, it's writing everything out. So I write out everything that's

stressing me or everything that's on my mind or everything that I'm overthinking about. and then I can decide what I can do about it.
