🎯 Why New Year’s resolutions fail (and the identity shift that works 🧠 - from a Hypnotist) ✨

Every January, people make resolutions with genuine intention.They promise themselves this year will be different.They try harder.They apply more discipline.And then—quietly—something pulls them back to how things were before.In this episode, I explore why New Year’s resolutions fail, not from a motivation or willpower perspective, but from a psychological and identity-based one.Most change attempts collapse for a simple reason:people try to change behaviour without changing identity.From Dubai, I recorded this episode to explain:why motivation is an unreliable fuel for changehow intensity often backfireswhy the nervous system resists forced transformationand how identity, not effort, determines what feels normal and sustainableThe episode also includes a guided hypnosis experience designed to help you:let go of last year’s labels and internal negotiationsstep into a future-self perspectiveexperience the feeling of already being the person you want to becomeand allow change to feel calm, inevitable, and alignedThis is not about forcing a “new you”.It’s about releasing an outdated identity so new behaviour no longer feels like work.Please don’t listen while driving or operating machinery.Allow yourself to listen somewhere comfortable and safe.If something in this episode resonates and you’d like to explore working together, I offer a free 30-minute consultation call where we can talk through your goals and whether hypnosis is the right approach for you.There’s no pressure and no obligation.👉 Schedule a free Zoom consultation here:https://go.oncehub.com/adamcoxPrimary tags:hypnosishypnotherapyidentity changepersonal transformationNew Year psychologysubconscious mindbehaviour changehabit changeSecondary tags:motivation vs identityself improvementmindsetpersonal growthanxiety and changefuture selfguided hypnosismental clarityWhy do New Year’s resolutions fail—even when people really want to change?In this episode, I explain why effort and motivation aren’t enough, and how identity determines what feels normal and sustainable.
