All-or-nothing thinking is the belief that if something isn’t perfect, it’s a failure.

It sounds like this:

• ‘If I miss one workout, I’ve failed.’
• ‘If I eat one unhealthy meal, I’ve ruined everything.’
• ‘If I can’t do it perfectly, it’s not worth doing.’

This kind of thinking burns you out. It turns progress into pressure.

But consistency doesn’t come from perfection — it comes from continuing after imperfection.
