Every January, millions of people make the same promise. “This is the year I get in shape.”“This is the year I stay consistent.”“This time will be different.” And by February, most of those resolutions are gone. Not because people don’t want it badly enough.Not because they’re lazy.But because they set resolutions the wrong way.

Emily was 38, a mother of two, a former athlete in “another lifetime,” and someone who swore every Monday would be her new beginning. She had good intentions.But intentions don’t create transformation.Action does, and action terrified her. The Day She pulled into the parking lot… and Froze She sat in her car for 12 minutes.Engine running. Heart racing.She watched other people walk in confidently, laughing, high-fiving, totally at ease.
