#012 Doable Resolutions

In this episode of St-John On Air, I reflect on why so many resolutions quietly disappear by February, and why this isn’t a failure of discipline or willpower.Drawing on insights from behavioral psychology and neuroscience — including the work of Richard Wiseman on resolutions, Carol Dweck on mindset, BJ Fogg on tiny habits, Angela Duckworth on grit, Kristin Neff on self-compassion, and neuroscientist Andrew Huberman on motivation and dopamine. I explore what actually makes change sustainable.This episode is also personal. I share how my own long-failed resolution to “start exercising” finally became a lasting habit; not through intensity or pressure, but through consistency, patience, and staying.If you’ve ever felt frustrated by New Year’s resolutions, this episode offers a gentler, more realistic way forward.No hype. No perfection. Just doable change and the courage to stay.If you like what I do, consider buying me a coffee.https://buymeacoffee.com/fzts9andx
