Mondays. January 1st. Your birthday. We treat these arbitrary calendar points like permission slips to finally become a different person — but the research suggests that 'fresh start' framing might be quietly wrecking your long-term consistency. This episode breaks down the psychology of temporal landmarks, why the clean-slate feeling is often just motivation hangover in a calendar costume, and what people who actually build lasting habits do instead of waiting for a meaningful date to begin. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company. See https://pcm.adswizz.com for information about our collection and use of personal data for advertising.
