Persistently

For the new year, and every week after

Stop staring at the summit.

Motivation fades when the reward is a year away. Pick a weekly anchor to count on, habits you enjoy, and a goal in the distance. Leave with a trail worth hanging on your wall.

Three questions. Free. Nothing to sign up for.

What keeps you moving

cairn /kairn/ a stack of stones that marks the trail.

Every week

Your cairn: a weekly anchor

One good thing on the calendar. It comes whether the week went well or not.

Most days

Your trail: habits you enjoy

Small steps, most days. Enjoying them is what keeps motivation going.

Someday

Your summit: a goal out there

A direction, a year or two out. No deadline. No pressure.

Build your trail

Three questions: your cairn, your summit and your trail. About two minutes.
