My new glasses don’t work; they actually made
me feel a little nauseous and made my screen and book look like the start of Star Wars.
So I took them back and then got booked in for a retest.
I’ve been this afternoon.
They think the problem is that the distance they planned for reading was way closer than I would naturally hold a book or screen at and they set the lens shape to correct for astigmatism. As I’ve never had any correction for that, my brain
wasn’t happy with so much change.
Their plan is to tweak the angle of the lens and make the prescription more appropriate for where I hold a book.
Changing too many things at once causes problems in the fitness and weight loss world too.
How many times have you made your diet perfect and planned to get up to go to the gym every morning to give in after a week?
We used to get our new
members to go 100% “clean” with their nutrition and give them daily tasks and fitness challenges; the results were amazing and most people would manage the first 4 weeks with our support.
They couldn’t be consistent with that level of commitment full time though, it wasn’t really until our kids moved in that we truly understood why.
Now, we aim for tweaking diet and fitness plans a little each week. Forming each change in to a
sustainable habit before moving on to the next thing.
Small improvements to lifestyle all add up to big results that become part of how you then live your life.
Walking around the block when you first get home from work, tweaking which foods you eat for breakfast, eating an extra portion of vegetables or upping the protein content of each meal are all manageable as individual components.
What small thing could you
make part of your life that could lead to massive change?
