Be A Better YOU with Gareth Boot

This week I'm setting the challenge at the start instead of the end: do a proper end of year reflection.Not the Instagram version. The useful one.I walk you through the exact process I use - an hour, a notebook, four parts. The data dump, the three categories (What Worked, What Didn't, What Surprised Me), the forward look, and finding your one thing for next year.This only works if you actually do it.

When the streak becomes more important than the thing you're doing, something's broken. Real consistency isn't about never missing - it's about coming back.I missed two weeks because I was doing inner work and didn't have much to say. The old me would have panicked. Now I know that sometimes not showing up is the most consistent thing you can do.As the year ends, the real advances aren't in the streaks you kept. They're hidden in the challenges you faced and the moments you chose differently.Includes a challenge to find where quality has dipped in your life and permission to pause, reset, and come back properly.

When life feels chaotic, you need one solid thing to hold onto. I share 5 anchors from The 12 Habits system that ground you when everything else is uncertain. Pick one. Start today. Rising Early, Moving Daily, Clean Eating, Journaling, or Meditation.

In this week's episode, I talk about anxiety and how it's becoming more common, and give you 4 practical things you can do to remove it.

Most people never start because they're terrified of being bad at something new. But staying stuck doing only what you're already good at? That's the fast track to burnout. This week's podcast is about why being willing to be absolutely shit at something might be the most important skill you never learned.
