Why do resolutions die?

How do you beat the odds and make your resolutions a reality?

On January 1, we all believe that we are about to become someone who meal preps, budgets, and never impulse buys. Does that always happen?

On this week's episode of the podcast, Shawn & George talk about why resolutions die, including:

• Rebellion spending
• Waning motivation
• Shame or avoidance
• February
• Lack of tracking or monitoring
• Lack of specificity.

More important, we also discuss how to beat the odds, including:

• Shrinking the goals
• Building systems
• Budgeting
• DIY
• Accountability
• Calendars
