Motivation is hard. Finishing tasks is challenging. Completing goals is difficult. The many responsibilities from day-to-day take up a lot of energy that sometimes it feels like there is no energy left to accomplish anything.

This week, let’s stop looking at the bigger picture and end goal—it feels so far away anyway. Instead, let’s look at our feet and where we are standing now. Then, take one step. And tomorrow, take another step.

Backwards Day is a fun national day celebrated on January 31st. This day encourages us to do things oppositely or backwards, which can give us new insights and be a bit of fun. This week, let’s try new ways of doing things by doing it backwards!

When the temperatures drop and the daylight hours are so short, the will to work and stay motivated is challenging. If you’re feeling sleepier, struggling to stay motivated, and feeling less productive, we have several tips this week to help you stay warm, energized, and inspired—even when it’s too cold to do anything.

The new year often brings a wave of inspiration, and we may feel invigorated by everyone’s new year resolutions. We jump on the train of new experiences, ready to tackle long-delay goals.

Yet, by the end of February or March, the initial spark fades. Doubts creep in. We hesitate. Sometimes, we don’t even get started with our goal, too caught up in ‘preparing’ and telling ourselves, “Once we have this one thing set, then we’ll be able to start this goal and be the person we want.”

These patterns often stem from limiting beliefs—those hidden, self-imposed barriers that hold us back from new possibilities. This week, let’s explore how these beliefs shape our actions and how to break free from them.

It’s the end of the year! This season is a wonderful time to pause, reflect, and renew as we prepare for the new year. To make the most of this transition, we’re sharing prompts and activities to help you check in with yourself and shape your vision for the year to come.

The festivities of this time of year invites us to connect with family, friends, and others. Sometimes, the holiday season means spending time with people who you usually may not have consistent contact with over the year.

Whether you are connecting with a loved one or reconnecting with an old friend, this week let’s discover ways to make this season one of meaningful connection.
