Ross Edwards | Deep Psychology Podcast HostThis month, we discuss why New Year’s resolutions fail, beginning with a little-known but crucial insight: that
achievement requires particular, developmentally guided inner machinery that many people lack.
Psychology, meditation and self-observation for deeper self-knowledge, every Wednesday
This the time of year when we reflect on the year past, our lives, and our trajectory. We often set new goals for the year with good intentions but lack the ability to follow through. This month, we get at the root of why this happens and what we can do about it.
Why New Year’s Resolutions Fail: Episode 1
Why New Year’s Resolutions Fail: Episode 2
Episode 2 of my January series of Why NY’s Resolutions Fail.
We cover a lot of ground today, from the top 3 learning myths, the source of these myths, to the fundamental assumption of pre-Achiever levels of development, to the keys to learning and success, to why talent is false, and more.
Key insight: Before Achiever levels of ego development, the self is seen as fixed.
Why New Year’s Resolutions Fail: Episode 3
“Effort accumulates to the point where it is unstoppable.”
We round off this month with a distilled, concise summary of all the best principles and tips I know for setting goals and following through on them.
We discuss goal-setting keys, long-term vs short-term, exponential change, developmental psychology, hockey sticks and pianos.
