New Year’s Resolutions didn’t ever work for me.  They were too broad, not actionable, and unrealistic. They felt more like “all or nothing” pressure statements. “Be Happier, Lose Weight, Less Stress, Be Healthier …”  
Change is slow. It takes small, consistent actions over time to see progress.  Our brains are wired to resist change but also possess the capacity to rewire.  In 2026, if you want to try something different, ditch the resolutions and try this instead.
