ADVICE

Choose Intentions Over Resolutions

  • Don’t set rigid resolutions; set simple, approach-oriented intentions instead.
  • Make the bar low and arrange your environment to make the intended action easy.
ADVICE

Prioritize Movement, Not Metrics

  • Turn off trackers if they create pressure and distract from your true intention to move.
  • Focus on the behavior (move) rather than metrics (step counts).
ADVICE

Start Intentions Early, Not On Jan 1

  • Start intentions before January 1 and build momentum early rather than relying on a fresh-start date.
  • Use small beginnings and existing momentum to make behaviors stick.
