I’m not a big fan of New Year’s resolutions. I find that this concept encourages us to set huge unrealistic goals that we pretty quickly fail to take action on.
It encourages an all or nothing mentality. We try to tackle the big goal, don’t reach it quickly, and then stop trying… and then feel guilty or disappointed in ourselves.
Listen, I think it’s great to set goals. But when we’re talking about one big thing to focus on for an entire calendar year, I prefer to simply name one intention word for the year.
This approach is definitely not unique to me. I’ve heard lots of others talk about this online the past few years.

Because it’s more effective than New Year’s resolutions. It gives you one broad theme to focus on throughout the year, as you continually recalculate, recalibrate, and set one goal after another as needed.
