106. Starting the new year with clearer focus

Welcome to Episode 106 – Starting the new year with clearer focus 

 

So you’ve woken up after new years and you’ve had a lightbulb moment. You want to get sober, or lose weight, or kick big goals in 2024. You start a list of new year’s resolutions… but deep down inside you know that you’ll probably give up by the end of January.

 

But what if I told you that you could make that resolution actually stick? 

 

Join me this week as I talk you through how to start your year with clearer focus. We’ll combine your end of year reflections with your core values and SMART goals to kickstart 2024 and achieve great things.

 

But before you hit play – make sure you listen to 104 and 105 because they give you some background to this episode. 

 

In this episode, I share:

• How setting new years resolutions can have a negative effect on us
• Why smart goals are a good mindfulness tool for the new year
• What SMART goals are
• Examples of what SMART goals can be for you 
• How linking SMART goals with your values can make it stick 
• Other steps to use to help you achieve SMART goals

 

Key Quotes:

 

“We’ve all been there and gone I want to lose 10 kilos in the first month and losing 10 kg of weight is really hard.”

 

“SMART goals are specific, they're measurable, they're achievable, they're relevant, and they're time based”

 

“The reason we set goals is because we want to move forward. We want to achieve something”
