0:00.0	Hey, everybody. Happy New Year. Happy 2023. And while I would love to go into all the things I'm doing and pitching, this is a bonus episode. So let's just get to the content. So no doubt you may be thinking about setting some resolutions this year or goals. And you absolutely may detest the entire concept around goals and resolutions. And let me be honest,
0:21.9	I have found myself more in that latter camp for many, many years until that is. I found the
0:28.3	therapeutic modality that I praise on a daily basis, my beloved acceptance and commitment therapy
0:34.1	or act, because act even makes setting goals or making new year's resolutions
0:38.5	an absolutely achievable experience because it really matters what you're choosing to want to do
0:44.4	because it has to be based off of what it feels like to be you and only you because may i remind you
0:51.2	my wonderful podcast listeners that you are one unique person.
0:55.6	Holy cow, are you unique?

1:25.7	even down to the things that you pay attention to, and what you read and you see and you hear. Because you are absolutely you,
1:33.7	and because of that, the goals, the things that matter to you, they have to legitimately matter to
1:38.6	you. And if you want to set a New Year's resolution to run three days a week and you really
1:43.6	don't care for running,
1:45.4	then that's a really tough ask. And quite frankly, I think you may be setting yourself up
1:48.9	not only just for a bit of failure, but then you will actually have, I almost want to call it,
1:53.4	a net negative effect, an overall negative experience with the entire resolutions and goal-setting
