Habitual behaviour can be a force for good – or evil. Whether we realise it or not, habits drive about 40 percent of what we do in our daily lives.

Ever pushed to the brink, mistaking exhaustion for excellence? That was me in April 2018, 24 hours before my stroke. I was consumed by work and physical stamina, my focus as narrow as a tunnel—missing the crucial human connections along the way. My latest video, "My Body Overload", is part 2 of a three-part series. I'll delve into this personal misstep. It's not just about the physical toll; it's about the warning mind and emotional signals of our well-being that we often ignore. If you've ever found yourself in a similar tunnel, let's reconnect with what truly matters. I learned three profound, avoidable mistakes in my relentless pursuit. The first? The first was ignoring my body and mind's exhaustion signals. I'll share more about what I need instead.

✨"Sometimes it can take years for us to acknowledge self-sabotaging behavior. Sometimes we never do."✨ My latest on Medium unpacks the all too common yet under-acknowledged habit of self-sabotage. Sometimes we're conscious of self-sabotage – which makes it easier to address. Other times, it is so normal to us that it's invisible, occurring without us even noticing. One of my major life journeys is to cut back on self-sabotage, especially negative self-talk and imposter syndrome. In honesty, it's still a work in progress. I'm curious: have you overcome self-sabotage? What helped you to do so? #burnout #selfawareness #selfcompassion #burnoutprevention #impostersyndrome https://lnkd.in/g__2aUGT

How to tell the difference between reacting and responding? Notice your body and sense of urgency. If you feel like you’re going from zero to 100, take some deep breaths to regulate your nervous system so you can shift into responding mode instead.

I've developed a short mantra that I repeat when I'm out for a run and feel like stopping: "My future lifespan and healthspan are far more important than my comfort in this fleeting moment." For me, it's not about being able to run a marathon or break speed records. But each time I push myself to run even just a minute longer than I feel like running, I'm training myself to overcome obstacles. I'm proving to myself that I can do hard things. If I desperately want to stop running after 17 minutes, but I make it to 18, enduring that extra minute of discomfort is something to celebrate. (Even if I set out to run for 30 minutes!) When you embrace and overcome even a relatively small amount of discomfort, I've found that there's a snowball effect. It's like a muscle that gets stronger with practice. It can even develop into a habit. And interestingly, the strengthening of this muscle is transferrable to other areas of life, helping you tackle challenging situations with greater #courage and confidence. I agree 💯 with Nir Eyal's post. Growth and #PersonalDevelopment happen when you give yourself a push beyond your comfort zone.
