Something invisible controls you — a silent shadow whispering that “now is not the right time.” It hides as a caring friend but in reality, it’s the enemy of your dreams: perfectionism. You’ve promised yourself a thousand times that “tomorrow” you’ll start. But days turn into months, and months into years. The truth is, your brain isn’t wired for growth — it’s wired to keep you safe with the least effort. That’s why change feels like a threat and every big plan collapses under its own weight. The solution? Start ridiculously small. Instead of saying “I’ll work out two hours a day,” start with a 10-minute walk. Instead of aiming for a book a week, commit to half a page a day. These tiny habits bypass your brain’s resistance, and step by step, they create unstoppable momentum. Progress isn’t built on giant leaps. It’s built on hundreds of small steps, repeated over and over. Don’t stare at the mountain — just move the next stone. That’s how real change begins. #mentalhealth #motivation #goals
