I can do this!

Paris, January 18, 2022

When I was preparing breakfast this morning it was dark outside. I could see there were clouds because suddenly the full moon disappeared in front of my eyes.

I saw the light changing colors from dark into light blue. I had a moment of hesitation.

A thought crossed my mind as I was seeing the sky change colors: “Should I or shouldn’t I?”

I decided, “of course I can”. I put my running shoes and headed outdoors for a very brief morning run. Every time that I am restating running, I start with exactly 12 minutes. That is the number that works for me. So, I did.

My message for you today is how in an instant, we can change the narrative of our mind from “I can’t” into “I can”. When it is a behavior that you know it is good for you and it is going to make you feel good and work better, there is nothing to lose.

And yes, after my 12-minute run, I leaned my back under the trunk of this tree to listen to the birds sing for 5 minutes. That is the moment that I captured to share with you today.

Which mindset shift can you embrace today as you move from “I can’t” into “I can do this”?
