All or nothing thinking
Thinking trap quiz
What’s going on:
All or nothing thinking is when you think if I can’t do it all perfectly, or I can’t fix it all at once, I might as well not even bother.
Example:
I only have 20 minutes to exercise today, so I just won’t work out at all since I don’t have my usual hour
Replace with:
Something is always better than nothing. It is better to exercise for 20 minutes than not at all.
