That's what she said. That's what she said. That's what she said. Well, that's what she said.

Welcome to that's what she said. Conversations with interesting people from the world's sports music comedy and more.

Talk about their lives, careers, successes and failures.

I'm Scott Peeoli and my dilemma is I've already failed at my New Year's resolution.

It's a dilemma that I can't stick to silly promises like eating healthier

48 hours into a new year. Well, well, well, isn't this timely, Scott? Because last week's episode of this

very podcast, that's what she said was Air Spain, featured my friend Lizzie Cutler, who gives you

the best tips on staying accountable to your resolutions and trying to understand the reasons why

you can't stick to them. One thing that I started doing this year that I haven't done in years

past with my resolutions is I physically wrote them down and I have a journal where each day I

have to check off whether I accomplished the things that I said I was going to do, for instance,

instead of waking up at a certain time. I'm trying to wake up about an hour earlier every weekday so

that I have more time during my day to get things done. And so every day if I didn't wake up by the time

that I said, I can't put a checkmark. And so I do that for each of the resolutions and hope to be able

to see checkmarks across the entire week for progress and simultaneously writing down reasons why

things might not be a good resolution or might not be doable. How can I adjust them and tweet them

and make them something that I will be able to accomplish every day? So go back, listen to my podcast

with Lizzie Cutler. Go back even farther, listen to my podcast with Gretchen Rubin, who talks about

her book Better Than Before, which is all about changing habits and behaviors. And then check back

in with me. I promise you'll have a better a better time doing it if you start with those.
