Why I’m Skipping New Year Goals This Year

This year, I’m not making a vision board.

I’m not setting a list of brand-new goals or chasing a “new me.”
Instead, I’m focusing on refining my weaknesses — because becoming better doesn’t always mean becoming different.

The idea of reinventing yourself every January isn’t realistic. Real growth comes from confronting what you avoid: inconsistency, fear, poor boundaries, burnout. That’s where the work actually is.

This feels like the year of getting on with it.
No rehearsed perfection. No waiting until everything looks right. Just using time intentionally and doing at least one thing each day that feeds the life I want to build.

It’s also the year of not accepting less—of pushing past comfort, breaking boundaries, and not letting small things drain my energy.

But here’s the balance: rest is non-negotiable.
When you’re rested - mentally, emotionally, physically — you operate from clarity instead of exhaustion. Productivity without rest is just burnout in disguise.

So my advice is simple:
Stop overthinking. Start moving. And rest well.

Above all, I know I am nothing without my faith. Everything I strive for is grounded in my Lord Jesus because nothing is possible without Him.

"What weakness are you choosing to work on this year?”
