⏸️ Before Jumping into New Year Resolutions and Goals…

Pause.


Why?


Our brains aren’t wired to acknowledge progress.


They default to what went wrong, where we fell short, and what we didn’t do.


So before setting new goals, let’s reflect on the year that just passed.


My 2025 word and intention was Growth.


In my mind, that meant one thing: financial growth.


And technically? My income grew 7x compared to the year prior.


Sounds amazing, right?


Yet my brain skipped right over that progress and went straight to what I didn’t achieve based on a made-up expectation I set for myself. It felt disheartening — not exactly how I wanted to start a new year.


With more reflection, I realized something important:


God had far bigger growth plans for me than I had for myself.


Growth wasn’t just financial.


It showed up in ways that have been far more meaningful and fulfilling than I ever imagined.


So now it’s your turn.


As you reflect on the last 365 days:


✨What progress did you make?


✨Where did growth show up that you didn’t expect?


✨What are you overlooking because you’re focused on what’s missing?


Even if you didn’t set formal goals, you made progress.


Pause long enough to acknowledge it.


When you start the year with gratitude — you open the door to possibilities you can’t yet see.


And if you’re great at setting resolutions but struggle to follow through, you’re not alone. Research shows accountability and mindset support dramatically increase follow-through.


If you’re ready to grow with intention this year, I have solutions. Let's talk.
