Episode 10 | How are you doing with your New Year's Resolutions?

In this episode of Strong & Awake, Dane and Mitch explore the pitfalls of comfort-centric living and the myths surrounding New Year's Resolutions and past efforts to change. They break down the common options and promises many rely on hoping for personal growth: big leaps and hyper-challenge, hyper-support, the "I just need..." mentality, and wishful thinking. Why do these quick fixes fail to deliver lasting results? Tune in and learn why embracing voluntary discomfort and sustainable, intentional actions might just be the unlikely path to flourishing.

Chapters:

  • 00:00 Introduction
  • 01:19 Options and Promises
  • 04:26 Beyond Resolutions
  • 08:23 Big Leaps and Hyper Challenge
  • 13:35 Hyper Support
  • 23:26 I Just Need...
  • 19:32 Wishful Thinking

Mentions:

  • Planet Fitness: Mentioned as an example of a gym marketing heavily during New Year’s resolutions.
  • Whole30: Referenced as a popular 30-day diet challenge often used as a reset.
  • 75 Hard: A rigorous 75-day challenge program compared to MWOD's approach.
  • James Clear: Cited for his work on habit development, particularly in his book "Atomic Habits".
  • Super Mario: Used as an analogy for the concept of big leaps and the subsequent fall.

Anchor Actions:

  1. Conduct an honest audit of your current reality: List what you’ve tried in the past, the results, and what you truly want to achieve.
  2. Develop a strategy for sustainable change: Create a plan that includes not just the big leap but also ongoing actions for after the initial challenge period.
  3. Establish healthy tension: Introduce manageable challenges into your routine to foster growth while avoiding hyper-support and wishful thinking.
