Send us Fan MailEver found yourself brimming with enthusiasm as the ball drops on New Year's Eve, only to find your resolutions fizzling out quicker than the leftover party poppers? Let's face it, we've all been there, and this episode is all about transforming that initial burst of aspiration into something that sticks. David Wright here, alongside Matt Fox, to dissect why our best-laid plans often go awry and how, with a dash of reality and a sprinkle of perseverance, we can set goals that actually endure past the confetti cleanup.Training for a Tough Mudder isn't for the faint-hearted, and neither is mastering the art of resolutions. We chat about the stamina needed to both conquer a 15k obstacle course and the metaphorical hurdles life throws at us. With a nod to the importance of incremental progress and setting smart, realistic goals, we share how breaking down that mammoth task into bite-sized pieces is the key to crossing the finish line, be it covered in mud or basking in the glow of achieved ambitions.But what's the secret sauce that keeps us grinding towards our goals? We explore the motivational forces at play, recognizing those critical 'pain points' that push us to change. From a poignant reflection on a lost colleague to the simple act of kindness, we acknowledge how intertwined our physical actions are with our mental health. Whether you're looking to tackle a physical challenge or make a positive shift in your life, tune in for some practical advice that could be the catalyst for your next big leap towards a happier, healthier you.FIND ME:My Website: https://motorcityhypnotist.com/podcastMy social media links: Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/motorcityhypnotist/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCCjjLNcNvSYzfeX0uHqe3gATwitter: https://twitter.com/motorcityhypnoInstagram: motorcityhypnoFREE HYPNOSIS GUIDEhttps://detroithypnotist.convertri.com/podcast-free-hypnosis-guidePlease also subscribe to the show and leave a review.(Stay with me as later in the podcast, I’ll be giving away a free gift to all listeners!)Change your thinking, change your life!Laugh hard, run fast, be kind.  David R.
