Breakages

Have you ever changed your own wing mirror?

Neither have I!
But a couple of months ago I needed to replace mine because my beautiful new Leaf EV has a significantly different turning circle to my previous trusty (& equally beautiful) Toyota IQ 🤦‍♀️

My car-lover hairdresser listened to my story & told me it's easy to fix...
...he helped me order a replacement part & showed me there are youtubes for how, so I could do it myself.

The part arrived & I watched the videos over and over... trying to persuade myself & those around me that I can do this. Im a capable human & here's the how.

But reader, you'll be pleased to see that instead, I phoned the mechanic, presented the dilemma, and the next day paid him £54 to fix it...

... costing money & time, yes
but saving me stress, uncertainty, and the risk of all the things that could go wrong, cause unexpected problems & cost way more in the long run.


It's *such* a useful reminder about why getting support when we're struggling or just when we want something that's beyond our comfort zone, is really worth the immediate cost, for the short term relief *and* longer term benefits 👌

Have a think...
what are you struggling with today?
Who do you already know that could help you & make your life so much easier?
