One reason the concept of becoming better can scare us is that it requires us to step out of a place that we recognize and have possibly grown comfortable with.

Better is about believing you can be – and do – more than you thought. And at the heart of becoming better at anything is the ability to make better choices.

For me, better is energy-giving, flourishing, stretching, thriving, making progress one step at a time.

By acting or performing our way into a new way of thinking, we can sometimes unearth elements of us that we didn’t believe were possible.

When we’re brave enough to try something else we can often change what we understand to be possible or worth doing, and ultimately who we believe ourselves to be.
