SUMMARY – CHAPTER 4
1. Focus on making good decisions, not perfect ones. “Good enough” steers you towards real change. Perfectionism causes decisions-making paralysis, whereas improving your mood demands that you make decisions and take action.
2. Keep changes small and sustainable.
3. When someone is down, we show them kindness because we know it is what they need. So, if you are committed to managing your mood and overall mental health, commit to practicing self-compassion
4. Once understand the problem, use it to help you work out where you want to go and focus on the horizon ahead of you
