  • Why New Year's Resolutions Fail (And How to Actually Crush Your Goals)
    Jan 15 2025
    Click To JOIN! Just Keep Learning Newsletter I WILL HELP YOU GET CLARITY, BUILD YOUR GROWTH MINDSET AND OWN YOUR BIG DREAMSLet Go of PerfectionNew Year's resolutions often set us up for failure. Why? Because we aim for perfection. Miss a day, and it feels like we've failed entirely. But here's the truth: perfection is the enemy of progress. Success is about momentum, not flawless execution. Miss a workout or two? So what. Keep moving forward. The goal is to feel good during the process, not just at the finish line.Focus on Feeling Good Through the ProcessDelaying gratification used to feel like the ultimate discipline. But the real win is finding joy while working toward your goals. Yes, hard work is uncomfortable, but if you're constantly miserable, what's the point? Build a system that lets you grow and enjoy the journey simultaneously.The Pyramid of Priorities: A Framework for SuccessPicture your goals as a pyramid:Base Layer: Daily habits (nutrition, fitness, relationships, meditation, creativity). These are your non-negotiables, like brushing your teeth.Middle Layer: Big dreams (writing a book, launching a podcast, building a business). This is where your focus goes.Top Layer: Hobbies and jobs. These can change over time and don't need results. They're for pure joy.This structure keeps you grounded while allowing space to dream big.The Waterfall Action Board: Turning Big Dreams Into Daily ActionGot a big goal? Break it down. Use a "Waterfall Action Board" to simplify your journey:Identify the Big Goal: (e.g., Write a book)Break It Down: Outline chapters, research, drafts, editing.Decide What to Outsource: Cover design, marketing, editing.Prioritize Daily Action: What's the next step YOU must do? Build a habit around it.For me, it's writing 1,000 words daily and sharing drafts with beta readers. Simple, clear, and actionable.Maintain Your Baseline HabitsWhile chasing big dreams, your daily baseline keeps you balanced. For me, that means:30 minutes of exerciseEating 80% whole foods10-20 minutes of meditationCreating content for 30 minutesQuality time with familyThese habits are the foundation that supports everything else. Missing a day isn't failure—it's part of the process. Just get back to it.Make Space for Hobbies Without PressureNot everything needs to be a goal. Hobbies are for fun, not productivity. Whether it's singing, painting, woodworking, or running, these interests bring vitality to life. They don't need to be monetized or mastered—they just need to be enjoyed.Progress Over PerfectionIn the end, it's all about progress. Forget perfect streaks. Build momentum. Keep moving forward. Whether it's January or July, your goals are always worth pursuing.So, what's your big dream? Let me know—I'd love to support you.And until next time, just keep learning.FOLLOW JustinInstagram – @JustKeepLearning.CaYouTube –@justkeeplearningpodcastTwitter – @JustinNolan_JKLTiktok – @justkeeplearning.caPinterest – JustKeepLearningcaFacebook – JustKeepLearningLinkedIn – Justin I'm so happy you found this podcast.
