Happy New Year!

Happy New Year!

It’s 2024, and I want you to know what it takes to kick things off right. But first, let’s clear the slate because most people are tempted to fall into the same old missteps that set you up for disappointment year after year.

Let’s cut it out —

❌ DON’T set New Year’s resolutions.
As you’ve no doubt noticed, they’re simply not effective.
❌ DON’T set big goals.
I’m all for big dreams, but now’s not the time to add another huge, taxing, time-consuming thing if you have a plate that’s already full. Clear some items off first.
❌ DON’T hate the circumstance that informs the goal.
Your body, your ADHD, your bank account, your past failures, etc. It only makes the problem worse.

Here’s what I want you to do instead.

🟢 DO take time to reflect.
What can you give up that doesn’t serve you anymore? Let it go. What served you? Order up more of that.
🟢 DO visualize what you want.
Daydreaming helps you see what’s possible for your life, and that’s important. Let your mind wander and delight in your desires.
🟢 DO focus on who you’re being.
Transformation is less about what you do and more about who you are being. Act as if what you want is already here. How does someone behave when he/she already has the habits that create the success you want? Be that person now.

The reality is, this whole “New Year” thing is all made up. Thousands of years ago, the new year was in the spring. Take the pressure off, start doing what’s best for you year-round, and the “new you” will come to be.
