And everyone, without fail, whispers the same promise they make every year: âIâll start in January.â But letâs be honest most people donât start. January comes, motivation fades, life feels just as chaotic and the cycle repeats: Stop â restart â burn out â repeat. And the people who feel that cycle the most ? Theyâre the ones who are q
