The Anti-Resolution Strategy
Happy New Year! With the promise of a clean slate, we all create aspirational and admirable goals. However, while 80% of resolutions fail by week three, you can join the successful 20% by mastering consistency. Many people quit when motivation fades, but science suggests a better way. Research from the journal Obesity (Schumacher et al., 2019) proves that temporal consistency is key. Specifically, exercising at the same time each day predicts higher physical activity levels. This routine reduces decision fatigue, making your new habits nearly automatic. Link for the mentioned research article can be found here: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31267674/
