090. Ditch the Resolutions, Plan Days Worth Repeating

Welcome to Zimmerman Podcast Episode 90.

Today, to help us keep the good momentum of a new year, I’m sharing what I do at the beginning of each year to focus my intentions and goals for another year here on earth.

I’ve never been a big “New Year's Resolutions” fan. Those seem to rely pretty heavily on motivation, which just isn’t enough to get you through the first week of the year, forget about all the long weeks and months.

Especially with a year as long as this one.

And if you have more you want to change than just exercise more or drink more water, if you want more of a full-life overhaul, it’s hard to know where to start.

But I’m going to walk you through my 5 steps for ditching resolutions and planning days worth repeating.

Episode 90 Topics:
- How to reverse-engineer big goals
- The mindset work required for building a better year
- How to define how you want to spend your time
- Why envy is your North Star
- What it looks like to determine your non-negotiables

Episode 90 Product Picks:

Lea Black CBD Skincare
In all the years I’ve been showing up online, teaching business education webinars or sharing about my life in Instagram stories, there’s one question I get more than ANY OTHER:
What skincare do you use???
For years, I had a pretty disappointing answer: a bar of soap. But as I started prioritizing my own wellness and stopped feeling guilty for investing time in taking care of myself physically, mentally, and emotionally, I knew I needed to up my skincare game.
Enter Lea Black skincare.
While I love literally every Lea Black skincare product I’ve tried, my favorite by far is the CBD Soothing Eye Cream, which can make me look rested and energized even after late nights up with the kids or prepping for a new course launch. I’m convinced that the CBD infused cream makes my eyes look bright and smooth, and I swear it even makes me feel more awake.
Whether I’m hitting the road with my family, preparing for a day of Zoom meetings, or getting a full face of makeup on to do some book press, I’m so thankful to be using products that really work.
