No, You're Not Dying

Should We Even Be Making New Years Resolutions?


Listen Later

We've made it to the end of the year! Have you made your resolutions yet that you'll probably give up on by February? (sry not sry)...but maybe we can help.

Today, we're discussing whether resolutions are worth making for the start of a new year and why we struggle with following through. We talk about why any day can be 1/1, why the intention behind a resolution really does matter, and the fundamental flaws with messaging like 'new year, new you'.

Then, we share practical solutions on making changes that work for us. We dive into:

  • How many resolutions are realistic to set
  • The ways to make them achievable
  • How we can work towards our goals everyday in small ways
  • Why it's okay to let go of an 80/20 mindset
  • Why setting a resolution must be uniquely for you (and not because you saw it someone else's list)
