How do you feel about New Year's resolutions? A good way to work on self improvement? Or a pointless annual exercise that always results in failure?

On episode 108 of Just The Fitness Tip, Jason and Michael discuss their feelings about setting goals in the new year and the importance of looking back on the year prior. Whether it's to assess your goals from the prior year or just to celebrate your achievements, an annual retrospective can give us all a real boost when it comes to our health and fitness journey.

We discuss the book "Atomic Habits" by James Clear, and the idea that making small changes to our daily habits can provide better results that mere goal setting alone.

We also chat about mindfulness meditation and some of the apps out there that can help you get started.

Try the Headspace app for 7 days free guided meditation or Sam Harris' Waking Up app, book and podcast for more info on how to integrate mindfulness into your life.
