Episode 70 – Don’t Reset. Refine.
January often arrives with noise: new goals, new pressure, new expectations.But for busy professionals, a full reset isn’t what’s needed.
In this episode of Busy Pro Fast Wellness, Alan invites you to take a quieter, smarter approach to the new year — refinement instead of reinvention.
Rather than wiping the slate clean, this episode explores why small, consistent improvements to what already works are far more effective than dramatic fresh starts.
In this episode:
Why “New Year, New You” thinking often backfires for busy professionals
The difference between being broken and simply overloaded
Why small, repeatable actions beat extreme resets every time
Reflections from a recent conversation on Boundless Body Radio and the power of repeating the basics
How principles from music, performance, movement, and wellness overlap more than we realise
Practical Exercise: The 10% Refinement Check
A simple, no-pressure exercise you can do today:
Identify one habit you already do that helps you feel better
Ask how you could make it 10% more intentional
slower
simpler
more focused
easier to repeat
No equipment. No timers. No overhaul.
Key takeaway:
You don’t need to start again.You need to keep what works — and refine the rest.
Quote featured:
“You don’t need a new beginning. You need a clearer direction.” — often attributed to Mel Robbins
