Ep 40 – New Year, New You: How to Crush Your Resolutions Once and for All!

The Career Woman's Secret Playbook Podcast - with Dr. Dawn

Hello, listeners and welcome back to another empowering episode of The Career Woman's Secret Playbook Podcast. I'm your host, Dr. Dawn, and since we are already a few weeks IN to the new year, we are going to talk about New Year's Resolutions, why they often times DON’T work, and what we can do about it. I am also going to share a personal story with you about how the recent loss of my Mom has made me even MORE aware of how priceless time is and that if we haven't made our dreams come true yet, there is NO time to waste.
Let's start with the reasons why resolutions often times don't work:

Reason #1: Unrealistic Expectations: The first major reason why New Year's Resolutions tend to fail is that we often set unrealistic expectations for ourselves.

Reason #2: TOO General: Vague goals like "get healthier" or "be more successful" make it difficult to track progress and stay motivated.

Reason #3: No Plan in Place: Setting a resolution is just the first step - without a well-thought-out plan, it's challenging to know how to work towards your goals.

Reason #4: Neglecting Self-Care: Many of us put our resolutions ahead of our own well-being and then we can burn out.

Reason #5: Lack of Accountability: Lastly, a lack of accountability can lead to resolutions falling by the wayside. Sharing your goals with a trusted friend or mentor, or even finding an accountability partner, can significantly increase your chances of success.

So, now that we've identified the common reasons why New Year's Resolutions often don't work, tune in to Today's episode to find out what you can do about it so that 2024 will become THE year when you crush your goals!
