Reframing Resolutions

The notion of New Year resolutions is often approached with overwhelming expectations that can lead to feelings of inadequacy. Instead of setting unattainable goals, it is more beneficial to focus on 'manageable moments,' which involve setting realistic and achievable tasks. For example, dedicating just five minutes a week to undistracted time with a child can foster a sense of accomplishment without the pressure of perfection. This shift in mindset helps cultivate feelings of capability and optimism, laying the groundwork for continuous improvement throughout the year.
