The Pain and Performance Podcast

Why Most Health Goals Fail


Listen Later

In this mini episode, Dr. Derrick Hines explains why most health goals don’t fail because of lack of motivation, but because people rely on motivation instead of systems and identity.

This conversation reframes goal setting away from willpower and New Year’s resolutions, and toward building simple systems and repeating behaviors until they become part of who you are. Dr. Hines breaks down why consistency beats motivation every time, and how identity-based habits dramatically increase long-term success.

If you’ve ever started strong and fallen off weeks later, this episode explains exactly why, and what actually needs to change.

Topics Covered:

-- Why motivation always fades
-- The role of systems in long-term success
-- How identity shapes daily decisions
-- Why consistency matters more than intensity
-- Turning goals into habits that stick
-- How to build momentum instead of relying on willpower

🎧 Tune in to learn how to stop restarting your health goals and start building habits that last.
