You may be familiar with the saying “mind over matter”: if we believe in our minds that we can do something, we can make it a reality.
But the inverse can also be a path to progress.
Getting out of bed before 6am can help us learn to love early mornings.
Going for that run 3 times a week can reprogram our brain to enjoy exercise.
Giving someone the benefit of the doubt when they’ve made a mistake can build our empathy muscle.
Singing a song or delivering a speech in public can help us overcome our fear of crowds.
Matter over mind: we can use action to rewire our minds.
