I was in a conundrum when November 2024 clocked. I had a lot of goals that I wanted to achieve. I was very excited about the process. However, I remember listening to a podcast in 2023 that made me rethink the following: is it too late to focus on my 2024 goals when 2025 is a few days away?

The Dilemma

The Devil: I have goals that I want to achieve. There are pictures in the vision board that haven’t been materialized. So I thought: If I hyper-focus on the next 40 or 30 days of November and December, I will be able to achieve and be proud of myself in the last week of December for putting up a fight before backing out!

The Deep Blue Sea: On the other hand, 2025 is around the corner. According to the podcast, you build momentum for the next year when you are already working on its resolution during the last months of the current month. You enter into the new year unruffled and will have quality time to consider alternatives to meet specific objectives.

Both schools of thought are solid! How would you address it?
