“What's the point, I've failed before.”

Every person who changed their health 'failed' a dozen times first. Starting again isn't failing. It's the whole program.

Almost everyone who's changed their health "failed" many times first. Each attempt teaches you something about what didn't work: too much too soon, too strict, too all-or-nothing. This program is built to be small enough to survive a bad week. Starting again isn't failure; it's the method.

Write down one thing that made your last attempt fall apart, then do a smaller version today.
