Instead of resolutions, I prefer _____________.

Happy Monday, Mighties! 🏵️

Every year around this time, there’s a lot of conversation about New Year’s resolutions and intentional goal-setting. While these can be motivating for some, they can also create an unspoken pressure to change parts of our lives—whether or not we have the energy, stamina, or motivation to turn those goals into sustainable habits.

Often, once the “holiday hype” fades, we may find ourselves returning to what feels safest and most comfortable, regardless of the resolutions we’ve made. This can sometimes add feelings of guilt or grief to the goal-setting process.

So let’s take a moment to reflect on what feels better and more supportive for us during this season. Instead of resolutions, what feels more feasible and manageable for you right now?
And if resolutions do work for you, what’s your approach—and why does it fit your lifestyle?

Be selective

It can feel tempting to defend yourself, explain your side, or win an argument, but not every situation deserves your emotional energy. Constantly fighting to be right keeps your mind activated and your body tense. Choosing peace does not mean you agree or give up, it means you are prioritizing your mental health over unnecessary stress. The more selective you become with your battles, the calmer and more grounded your life feels. Where in your life could choosing peace bring you relief right now?

If you feel like you’re just surviving instead of thriving, do this instead

A lot of people are not failing at life, they are just stuck in survival mode. When stress is constant, focus disappears, reactions become automatic, and intention gets replaced by exhaustion. Simple tools like pausing before reacting, focusing only on what you can actually control, and identifying what drains or fuels your energy can shift you out of that pattern. You do not need to fix everything at once. You need clarity. When you slow down your reactions, let go of what is outside your control, and deliberately invest energy in what supports you, thriving becomes possible again. Which of these feels like the hardest part for you right now?

The voice in your head

Healing does not mean the inner voice disappears, it means it loses its power over you. When you stop believing every thought automatically, space opens up for calm, self compassion, and even humor. That moment when you notice the voice and no longer feel controlled by it is a quiet sign of real progress. Have you noticed any changes in how you relate to your thoughts lately?
