The Mental Side of Wellness — What I Tell Myself When I Want to Quit

Wellness isn’t always pretty. Some days I don’t feel like running, cooking, or even getting out of bed. But over time, I’ve learned to talk to myself differently. My Go-To Mental Shifts: Talk to yourself like you would a friend. The way you speak to yourself in tough moments is what builds lasting strength.

Still I run medal

Wellness isn’t always pretty. Some days I don’t feel like running, cooking, or even getting out of bed. But over time, I’ve learned to talk to myself differently.

My Go-To Mental Shifts:

  • “I don’t have to feel motivated — I just have to move.”
  • “This mile will pass, just like everything else.”
  • “Even 10 minutes of effort is still effort.”
  • “I don’t have to be the best — just consistent.”

Talk to yourself like you would a friend. The way you speak to yourself in tough moments is what builds lasting strength.
