Summary

I'm great at making New Year's resolutions, but I struggle with following through on them because I think the culture of New Year's resolutions encourages vague goals that are hard to act on. Instead, I believe in resolving to take tangible steps towards a goal, rather than just setting an outcome as my resolution. For example, instead of saying "I want to learn a new skill," I would resolve to spend one hour every day working on it. This approach helps to create a sense of direction and accountability, making it more likely that I will follow through on my goals. By focusing on the work itself, rather than just the outcome, I can make progress towards my objectives and achieve real results.
