Goals Don’t Work — Do This Instead - New Video :)


Remember I sent you an email at the beginning of the year related to Goals?

I reckon by now many of us are feeling disappointed with how our goal setting has gone!

So here's a thing you can do:

  1. 👉 Download the free Activate Clarity Check here Clarity Checker A-10-Minute-Reset-for-Change-Makers.pdf​
  2. Watch the video and let me know your takeaway - it's nice a short so you can watch on the go ;)

Here's what I know, most goals don’t fail because you’re undisciplined.
They fail because they lock you into pressure, comparison, and unrealistic expectations.

In this video, I shared a core teaching from my Activate 2026 workshop: why traditional goal-setting often keeps change-makers stuck, and what to use instead if you want sustainable momentum.

Rather than setting rigid goals or New Year’s resolutions, I invite you to work with direction:

  • a clear orientation for where you’re heading
  • flexibility to change your mind
  • and a way to stay activated without burning out

You’ll hear why:

  • goals can trap you in “not good enough” thinking
  • direction gives your nervous system something to organise around
  • breaking the year into short, flexible cycles works better than 12-month plans
  • “ready” is a trick that keeps you stuck — activation is what actually moves things forward
  • finding your rhythm matters more than copying anyone else’s pace

This isn’t about doing more.
It’s about doing what actually moves the needle — with clarity and self-trust.

If this resonates, start with the Activate Clarity Check (linked above).
It’s a free, 10-minute reset designed to help change-makers:

  • clarify direction
  • simplify focus
  • and activate the next honest step

Take what’s useful. Leave the rest.
And work at your rhythm.

Love and Activation, Mama J
