How to Set Goals to Succeed

Juna Gjata
About this episode

We are ringing in the New Year with our first-ever daily episode series! Every single day of January, we are posting a mini-episode geared towards helping people with the most common New Year's resolution: to exercise more. This series is meant to be hyper-practical, tackling things like finding a routine, overcoming gym anxiety, creating consistency and so much more! (Including a deep dive into Eddie's gym fashion.)

In this episode, we discuss the best ways to set goals for the New Year. We talk about the importance of setting specific and measurable goals, as well as how to use your own brain chemistry to help you achieve your new habits.

Check out last year’s episode on the science of New Year’s resolutions!
