Merry Christmas 2021! Quotes about staying on plan

I was listening to a lot of Chef AJ interviews while in Austin (Thanksgiving time). These quotes I repeat to myself now:

Just because it’s less bad doesn’t mean it’s good - Dr. Alan Goldhamer 

The problem isn’t that you slipped, the problem is that you’d don’t get back on the plan - Chef AJ

Complete abstinence is easier than perfect moderation - St. Augustine

You can't have both excuses and results at the same time - Chef AJ (quoting Dr. Goldhamer maybe?)


She also says that addiction is caused by being too scared of the alternative. I need to remind myself to keep running experiments rather than setting the bar too high.
