Most resolutions fail because they are built wrong, not because you lack willpower. Epictetus worked out why 2,000 years ago.
In this episode I break down three tests from Stoic philosophy that expose whether your goal is real or just fantasy dressed up with good intentions: Control, Cost and Consistency. Then I take six of the most common resolutions, get fit, save money, get promoted, be happier, quit social media, read more, and show you exactly how each one fails and what the Stoic fix looks like.
At the end there is a simple scoring system you can use right now to test whether your goals will actually stick.
