Why do we measure what we measure? It’s because we need, or want to compare. When it comes to nutrition, we compare what we ate to what we were supposed to eat on a particular diet… We compare what we are eating now to what the friends next to us are eating… We compare that to what we ate yesterday…and the truth is that measuring in and of itself is not bad. It’s in how we view the measuring that makes all the difference because that determines how we define success. When it comes to improving and living healthier, having the right perspective on what it means to make progress helps us understand what’s really important when we measure the improvements that we seek to make.
