Forget New Year’s Resolutions.
Try This Goal-Setting Method Instead.
- The mantra “new year, new me” is long gone thanks to the realization that it puts a huge
- amount of pressure on individuals, and it also insinuates that you need to be “new” (for the
- record, you don’t). But New Year’s resolutions still exist for many — whether you’re hoping to
- eat healthier or get a hold of your finances.
- Unfortunately, far-reaching goals can be unattainable and can make people feel bad about
- ……………… if and when they fail — and more than half of these yearlong resolutions will fail,
- according to Emma Mahony, a therapist at Better Life Therapy in Philadelphia and a mental health
- content creator on TikTok.
- “People end up failing because [of] the intense, concrete, absolute goals that are so far
- off from where we are now”, Mahony said.
- Bottom line: It’s hard to stick to a strict and lofty goal. Instead, consider a different
- approach: Tackle smaller, monthly themes instead of one big resolution.
- These themes can be part of a larger goal, like improving your mental or physical health,
- or they can just be self-improvement themes that resonate with you. For example, maybe in
- January your theme is “cook more at home” rather than a resolution of “lose weight”. If your
- bigger goal is to improve your mental well-being, you may want spend one month doing a
- mindfulness exercise every day, Mahony said. The key is to pick something actionable and small
- rather than stumbling toward a vague ambition.
- Setting monthly themes can be exciting and easier than a resolution, all while fueling some
- positive change in your life. According to Tasha Bailey, a psychotherapist in London and a mental
- health content creator on Instagram, having monthly goals instead of a yearlong resolution helps
- ease the pressure that can come with a big New Year’s Day resolution.
- “It’s such a unique thing [and] it’s such a personal thing — there’s no wrong or right way”
- to set monthly themes, Bailey said.
- She added that if you don’t feel like setting your themes for the upcoming months at the
- start of the year, that’s OK. You can create your themes on whatever day feels right for you,
- whether that is an upcoming birthday or a random day in March.
- Also, Bailey said, if yearly resolutions work for you instead, there is nothing wrong with
- that. “Try to let go of the pressure to follow what everybody else is doing, and do what feels
- right for you”, Bailey added.
- Mahony noted that your goals don’t have to be a huge shift in your life. She said you
- should commit to something that feels sustainable, something you want to cultivate and
- something that is important to you. You’ll be more likely to stick to your monthly themes if you
- actually enjoy what you’re working toward.
- “Any step in the right direction is a step, even if it’s small”, Mahony added.
