Every January, it's tempting to set big goals and ambitious resolutions. But what if one hard commitment mattered more than all of them combined? In this episode, John reflects on a goal he didn't finish, a project he didn't plan, and the concept of a Misogi, one defining challenge with a real chance of failure that changes who you become in the process. This is a reminder that progress isn't always about completing the goal you set, but about becoming the person capable of carrying it.

🟩 Quote of the Day: It's not about finishing the goal. It's about becoming the kind of person who can carry it.
