What will you live for in 2025?
Ah the start of a new year, some things are inevitable; you’re still accidently writing 2024 (and probably will be until February), you’re not quite sure what day of the week it is (Tuesday, right?), and sooner or later, someone will ask you if you have any New Year's resolutions.
We get it - resolutions have a bit of a reputation these days, but let’s be honest; January has a way of making us feel motivated to make meaningful changes. And what if you could set yourself up for success simply by reframing your ‘resolution’ into a ‘goal’?
But what's the difference?
A resolution is more like a wish for the future, for example – "I want to exercise more". While a goal is a clear plan with steps, timeline and a way to track your progress, for example – "I’m going to follow the Couch to 5K programme for 9 weeks by running on the treadmill at my local gym".
And that’s where we come in! We can’t help much if your goal is to travel more or read more books, but when it comes to fitness, health and even career goals, we got you covered.
Ready to make the most of your New Year’s motivation? Read on to find out how we can help set your 2025 goals on the path the success.
