A New Year! A New You?

Are you thinking this is the year that a ‘better version of you’ can really make its mark?

Before you start your ‘better you’ campaign, you might want to think carefully about who you’re trying to become. And why…

 If you’re waking up this January 1st thinking 2025 is the year to start working on crafting a new version of yourself, you might want to think carefully about who this ‘new you’ is really for. And why you want to be that person.

I’ve spent many Januarys planning my regime to become a better, more productive, thinner version of last year’s model. A version that drinks less, eats healthier, works harder and succeeds more. But all of those attempts failed.

They failed because the newer, better, more productive person I was trying to become wasn’t really me. It was a version of me that I thought people would like more. And therefore, a version of me that I thought would be more successful.

It's taken me many such failed attempts to learn that the first rule of becoming a better person is to truly understand who that better person is on the inside.

So, my question to you this January 1st is ‘Who is the true, authentic ‘new you’ that wants to emerge?’
