Stop Falling Off The Wagon: how Mental Contrasting is the best kept secret of people and companies doing their best when sh*t hits the fan.

from Change Wired · host Angela Shurina

The moment you feel stressed, tired, or overwhelmed, do you suddenly “forget” all your healthy plans and slide back into old patterns?We’re tackling that frustrating loop of falling off the wagon and why it happens across nutrition, fitness, business, and relationships, even for smart, high-achieving people. The problem isn’t knowledge or ambition. It’s that our plan only works in "good weather". We unpack a deceptively simple mindset from Jim Rohn: “When it’s summer, think winter."Summer is when motivation is high and routines feel easy. Winter is the inevitable dip: low energy, emotional drain, packed schedules, and decision fatigue.The breakthrough is learning to use your “summer” days to build resilient systems, habits, and safety nets that protect you in winter, so one hard day doesn’t turn into a week-long spiral of guilt, shame, and lost momentum.
