Why New Year’s Resolutions Fail..
With a glass in hand and the New Year just around the corner, I wanted to share a quick thought about New Year’s resolutions — because they tend to get a bad reputation. It’s not that resolutions are a bad idea; it’s that we’re not always great at keeping the promises we make to ourselves.
In this video, I talk through a few simple, practical ideas from our 100 Bricks toolkit that can help turn good intentions into real action. From writing your goals down, to making them clear and measurable, to sharing them with someone you trust, these small steps can massively increase your chances of actually delivering on what you set out to do. Here’s to a brilliant start to 2026, and I hope these ideas help you as the year unfolds.
