Memorable Quotes

"A resolution isn’t something that you set. A resolution is something you resolve. If the internal resistance hasn’t been resolved, no goal—no matter how inspiring—can ever fully materialize."

"The real reason your goals don’t materialize is because of what I would call an inner conflict. You consciously want something, but unconsciously you believe it’s not possible. The nervous system will always default to what you believe, not what you want."

"You don’t create a new year by trying harder. You create it by deciding who no longer gets to run your life. This year doesn’t need better goals; it needs deeper resolution."
