VOICE OVER CAREER
If Your New Years Resolutions Tend To Fizzle 
By Week 6, Here's How To Make 'Em Stick

By Paul Schmidt
Voice Actor & Coach

I abhor New Years resolutions.

Rather than telling yourself what you want to DO differently in 2024, tell yourself who you want to BE. How will you shift your identity in the new year?

Rather than telling yourself, "I am going to market more" - which, with no real plan, will likely fizzle by week 6 - see yourself as ... identifying as ... and acting as ... someone who is constantly learning to market their business. That is much more powerful.

True transformation starts with a shift in identity.

A THOUGHT TO TOUCH YOU

That big blank canvas for a fresh new year is awfully tempting.

We tend to get all fired up about all the changes we're going to make. We pick 20 new habits we're going to really stick to, and a week in, we're exhausted and discouraged.

What if you just built 12 new habits, one each month, and took all 30 days to get insanely consistent with each?

At the end of the year, you will have real transformation and rock-solid confidence in your ability to build consistent habits.

A QUOTE TO INSPIRE YOU

"Whatever and whoever you are around is feeding you something. Just make sure you're eating what your future self needs." - Doug Wood
