1. Lack of Clear Purpose

• Why Resolutions Fail: Many resolutions are vague, like “exercise more” or “be happier,” without a clear reason behind them. Without purpose, it’s hard to stay motivated.
• Strategy: Connect with your “big why,” giving you a deeper purpose that keeps you motivated even when challenges arise.

2. Setting Goals Without a Plan

• Why Resolutions Fail: People often jump into resolutions without a roadmap, leading to burnout and frustration.
• Strategy: Break down your big goals into manageable actions, so you know exactly what steps to take each month, week, and day.

3. Getting Overwhelmed by Big Goals

• Why Resolutions Fail: Big, ambitious goals can feel exciting, but they also feel overwhelming, leading to procrastination or giving up altogether.
• Strategy: Break down big dreams into achievable milestones, making it easy to celebrate small wins and stay encouraged along the journey.

4. Lack of Accountability and Support

• Why Resolutions Fail: Many people set resolutions alone, making it easy to lose momentum or feel discouraged without support.
• Strategy: Be in community with like-minded individuals or an accountability partner who can provide motivation, accountability, and support to keep you moving forward.

5. Forgetting to Reflect and Adjust

• Why Resolutions Fail: Resolutions often fail because they’re set and forgotten. Without regular check-ins, it’s easy to lose track and drift away from your goals.
• Strategy: Review your progress, reflect on your wins, and make any necessary adjustments. This keeps you connected to your goals and focused on the big picture.

6. Not Celebrating Progress Along the Way

• Why Resolutions Fail: Focusing only on the end result can lead to burnout. Without acknowledging small achievements, it’s easy to lose motivation.
• Strategy: Creating a “ta-da” list instead of a “to-do” list! Celebrating each accomplishment, which helps you build momentum and enjoy the journey.

The Thrive in 2025 Challenge deep dives into these strategies in a 7-day community experience designed to ensure you enter the new year with a clear purpose, a solid plan, and the support needed to make 2025 your most fulfilling year yet.
