If you are listening to this, congrats--you made it to 2021! For many people, the start of the new year brings new year’s resolutions. But did you know that, depending on what study you reference, between 82 and 91 percent of new year’s resolutions are unsuccessful?

Well, James Clear, the author of Atomic Habits, has 5 reasons why those resolutions don’t work, and tells us why we should focus not on resolutions, but on creating better, more positive habits to initiate change. I discuss all of it in today’s episode, as well as how his book has changed not only my work as a choir director, but my life at home as well.
