Do you feel at times like you’re a hamster running on a wheel?
Going around and around with little to no progress towards reaching your goals, but you feel like you’re putting in all the effort you can.

A new year is here, but you can’t help but start to feel the frustration that comes along with it. It’s a new year, it’s supposed to be a fresh start, but the goals are the same. The race hasn’t changed.
Part of you knows what’s coming. You know what to expect from this routine. You’ll set new goals, or “Resolutions”, and you’ll be excited and ready to go!
You start knowing that you aren’t prepared properly for success goal, so you prepare yourself for another failure.
You get started and feel like this will be the year, but already you are preparing yourself for the moment when things start to breakdown. You’re already preparing for the failure. You are already mentally preparing yourself for the moment when things begin to fall apart so quitting is that much easier.
Why? Why do you expect to fail?
Is it because you aren’t confident in your actions? Maybe you want to reach your goal, but you know you aren’t any better equipped than you have been previously.
You always have the best of intentions, but don’t have the right pieces in place to find success.
This year can, and will, be different. This year you have the potential to find more success than ever before! You can find success, and at MindMuscleMemory (M3) your success is our priority!
