And in this episode, I’m sharing a three-part process that might just become your new end-of-year ritual.  Instead of your New year’s Resolutions being a well-intentioned flash in the pan, we’re going to kindle a flame that will burn brightly all year. Key Takeaways- Reflecting on our past successes, however modest, helps build the self-efficacy needed for future change- Connecting our goals to our values helps us tap into the intrinsic motivations that fuels sustained effort. - Link each goal to an identity statement that reflects who you want to become, not just what you want to achieve- Focus on no more than 2-3 goals at a time to avoid overwhelming yourself and diluting your efforts- Create \"if-then\" commitments for how you will handle potential obstacles when they arise","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/hK-ryLgbLm7seTngO2Df7RQ7ClXBDR0u45jtAdPN6Yc/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9zaG93/LzI2NDAxLzE2ODA4/MTIzOTgtYXJ0d29y/ay5qcGc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
