Deep dives

Setting Priorities and Process-Oriented Approach over Resolutions

Resolutions often lead to half-hearted efforts and quick abandonment. Instead, focus on setting priorities and process-oriented approaches. Resolutions tend to be unrealistic, leading to feelings of failure. By setting priorities, you can align your time, energy, and attention to what truly matters. Being process-oriented allows for flexibility and adaptability, making it easier to sustain efforts. Avoid an all-or-nothing mindset and focus on incremental progress. Additionally, start beta testing and building support structures before the new year to ensure a smoother transition.
