Reading this reminded me how often I push myself into unfamiliar “houses” my nervous system hasn’t explored.

With "My Accountability Partner," I help people meet their future selves through consistent, safe experiences instead of forceful effort.

How do you create small, repeated encounters with the self you aspire to?

Eleni Rizopoulou's avatar

By letting my nervous system lead. Small, repeatable acts that feel safe enough to return to, presence before performance. Consistency comes from familiarity, not force. Thank you for reading 😊

Presence before performance reframes consistency in such a humane way, it explains why some habits finally stick while others exhaust us.

When familiarity builds trust, effort feels lighter.

What’s one small act that’s become your anchor lately?

New habits need some time to settle, and coming back into an old house makes me doing things that old way again — yet, as I watch myself, I can try to break the pattern and stay with the new habits. Because this version of me ‚lives somewhere else‘ now. Not in the house with that dusty manual with lines starting „I cannot“ and „I have to avoid“, but in a room with „why not“, „just try this first“, „yay“. Somewhere in „never give up town“.

Thank you for this Daniela. It’s true, you can visit the old house without moving back in. 😊

I’m somewhat between moving back in chasing the deamons out first, or not moving back at all, or building myself a shell for covering.

Are you brilliant or something? Cause you feel brilliant and you make me understand myself better

That is good though, isn’t it? ☺️
