Listen Later

Are your New Year’s resolutions starting to slip already? You’re not alone. Most habits don’t fail because you’re lazy or unmotivated—they fail because they’re set up to fail. In this episode, we break down the five biggest reasons habits don’t stick and share simple, actionable strategies to keep you on track beyond January.

Key Points

  1. Unrealistic Expectations
    • Why “go big or go home” isn’t the best strategy for building sustainable habits.
    • How to set achievable goals that feel exciting without becoming overwhelming.
    • Lack of a Clear Plan
      • The difference between wanting a habit and knowing how to make it happen.
      • Tips for creating a step-by-step process so you always know your next move.
      • Over-Reliance on Motivation
        • Motivation gets you started, but it won’t keep you going.
        • How to build systems that make habits easy to stick with, even on hard days.
        • Habit Fatigue
          • Why habits start to feel boring and how to reframe routines to keep them fresh.
          • Celebrating milestones to stay engaged and motivated.
          • No Accountability or Support
            • Going it alone isn’t always the best option.
            • How accountability partners, groups, or coaching can help you stay consistent.
