Failures of New Year Resolutions
from St Mark Sermons · host St Mark Coptic Orthodox Church
Father Anthony Mourad explores why standard New Year's resolutions fail and how the devil spiritually derails our best intentions. Highlighting that 80% of resolutions fail by February, Father Anthony exposes three psychological and spiritual traps: the false pride of early victories, the procrastination of "tomorrow," and the paralyzing despair of feeling like you are reset to zero when you stumble. Grounded in the wisdom of the Desert Fathers and Saint Isaac the Syrian, he offers a powerful alternative strategy: abandon the pressure of long-term tracking and choose to live every single day as "Day One" in the grace of God.
