EP 138: The Gentle Reset: Adjust, Don't Abandon Your Goals
In the final episode of the Gentle Reset New Year’s Series, we look at what happens when real life starts interfering with our goals. As the initial momentum of the new year fades, this episode offers practical ways to work with obstacles instead of turning against yourself, so you can keep moving forward in a way that actually fits your life.
Key Takeaways:
Obstacles are not personal failures. Feeling stuck or slowed down is often a response to real-life stress and changing capacity, not a lack of discipline or motivation.
Redefine consistency. Consistency doesn’t have to look the same every day. Small efforts still count, and missing a day doesn’t mean starting over.
Stop comparing and stay in your lane. Your goals are meant to support your life, not measure up to what others are doing.
See setbacks as information. Setbacks usually point to a mismatch between expectations and reality and signal where adjustments are needed.
