I can now do something ---

[Bazza1234]

that I never ever thought I could do. Of course, I had tried several times and failed. It always ended badly. But then somebody showed me that I was going about it all wrong and it wasn't me that was the problem, it was the incorrect way I was thinking that it should be done. I also have tried to eat an elephant a few times - and failed that too. I mean , how can anybody do that? I know that a lot of people do - but it seems to impossible for me - an elephant is huge!!!!!! I have been told to try it with a much smaller spoon??

And over a much longer period maybe?

Eating the elephant one mouthful at a time is one of the most useful metaphors I’ve come across. It applies to everything difficult we face. Well done swapping to a smaller spoon and realising that, whilst it is running, it isn’t a race.
