Many people start the year with good intentions—be happier, less anxious, more balanced. And yet, a few weeks in, those New Year’s resolutions quietly fade. This isn’t because you lack discipline or motivation. It’s because most goals aren’t built around how mental health actually works.
The start of a new year often brings a surge of motivation. Gyms fill up, planners sell out, and phrases like “new year, new me” flood social media. Yet by February, many people feel discouraged, overwhelmed, or disappointed that their goals haven’t stuck.

What’s cool today wasn’t cool last year and most likely won’t be cool next year. “Cool” is transitory, it comes and it goes, it’s superficial, it doesn’t’ have much depth, and it’s constantly changing. We don’t really know what will be “cool” next year or 5 years...
Is all anger bad? Nope. Not at all. It’s is neither good nor bad – it just is. We can’t assign labels like good emotions or bad emotions because all emotions have a purpose. For most people, anger is uncomfortable, and that’s okay.
