Mind Your Mindset: The Science That Shows Success Starts with Your Thinking

I have been working on trying to lose weight for some time now. I have tried cutting back on my calorie intake, taking exercise classes, and different types of diets. But something always seems to get in my way.
Mind Your Mindset helped me see the real problem is my beliefs about myself. I have believed different lies through my journey, from things like I have worked hard and deserve treats (and then never lay off of the treats) to one little cheat meal isn’t going to hurt anything (which quickly turns into 2 or 3 cheat meals).
The book showed me how to identify the false stories I believe, expose them for what they are, and write a new narrative that serves me better. My mind would try to find any excuse it could when things got tough.
I would highly recommend reading this book if you struggle with reaching your goals, no matter what they may be. One of my favorite quotes from the book is: “You are not stuck with the stories you have about yourself. You can train your Narrator to create a newer, truer storyline for your life.”
