How many diets have you "failed" at?
If you're like most of us, a lot more than one. Maybe many at least one.
But, it's not if you fail or the number of times you fail that counts.
It's how you handle failure that matters in the long run.
The Same Coin
Failure and success are two sides of the same coin.
Ponder nearly everything in life. You almost never have success without failure.
You learned to walk by collapsing 100's if not 1,000's of times. But you never felt like a failure and were never labeled as a failure.
Mom and Dad kept encouraging you and you kept standing and trying repeatedly until you realized it right.
You learned to read by goofing up your alphabet enough times to finally realize right. By bollixing writing out the letters 'till you got them right. By
juice plus distributor misspelling and misreading the words until you got them right. The mistakes were plentiful. But you were never a failure - you were just learning.
Same with riding a bike, driving a car, playing a sport, dating, for gosh sakes. Choosing a career or a mate, perhaps.
Life is a research process where failure and success are two sides of the same coin.
What's Different About Dieting?
In some ways dieting is the same and in some ways it's different from most other things.
It's the same because failure and success should go together - 2 sides of the same coin.
It's different because, let's admit it, you don't really want to diet first off. And you probably have negative thoughts and feelings about dieting.
Everyone chooses to walk, read, drive a car, and have a great career and a great mate. Nobody plans to diet
