As we start 2024, we are being hit with an onslaught of ‘New Year, New You’ themed messaging that suggests our best self is just around the bend. Whether it is advertisements selling us weight loss programs, coaches touting productivity hacks, or influencers hawking “health” tonics, the message is the same—our current self isn’t enough. ​​​​​​​​ ​​​​​​​​ As consumers have become savvy to the fact that diets don’t work, diet companies have tried to obscure their messaging, claiming to be “anti-diet” or “mindful eating” despite promoting plans that involve calorie counting, food restriction, and a focus on weight loss. ​​​​​​​​ ​​​​​​​​ Don’t be fooled, if it looks like a diet, sounds like a diet, and tastes like a diet, most likely it is a diet (hint: promises of weight loss are usually a clear giveaway something is a diet). And we all deserve so much more than a lifetime trying to shrink our bodies over and over again. Here’s to 2024 being a year we leave dieting behind and embrace our fullest most authentic selves 🎊🥳🎉🪩​​​​​​​​

🎉 Our 2024 goals! 🎊
We spent a lot of time thinking of goals that felt unique to pursue this year rather than doing larger amounts of the same. While we can (and will) go farther on a lot of things we were working on, they don't need to go on the list as this is to showcase what we are striving for and not the varying degrees of completeness of a larger goal 🌠
This is also why we decided to break down our game dev goals further here! We keep massive checklists breaking every end goal down to the smallest degree behind the scenes, but what we were sharing were a lot larger, later steps. Making the list goals too lofty can set us up to feel bad later if we don't quite hit it, but there are a LOT of important steps along the way that we could share instead! After all, writing these lists is about inspiring, empowering, and motivating us to reach our goals! We can do this! 💪

I usually don't do the whole New Years Resolution thing, but this years it's different. Dr. Jordan Peterson has a "top 100" list of recommended literature, and I am going to go through them one by one, to see how many I can complete. I am including film adaptations and listening on Audible. So many of these I remember reading decades ago as required reading for high school or my college literature classes, but most will be first time reads for me. The last 2 days I read A Farewell to Arms (Ernest Hemingway). I still want to see both versions of the movie, one made in the 1932 with Helen Hayes and Gary Cooper, and another made in 1957 with Jennifer Jones and Rock Hudson, the latter being more fluff of the two, according to critics. The ending of the book slayed me. But it is great fun to read sad books and day drink. Here is a sampling. The rest can be found on his website.

🌟🎆✨️ HAPPY NEW YEAR! ✨️🎆🌟
Let's toast to new memories, old friends, and chasing our dreams! 🥂
2022 was a year of returning to normalcy and healing for us, making us very excited for the growth and newness 2023 will bring! One thing we noticed in reviewing our 2022 list was how pandemic-minded it was in the way that it didn't plan for the world to re-open. This year, we're striving to grow in all of our areas, including those that put us out into the world, so we can strive to wholistically evolve into the game devs, artists, and people we need to be to make our dreams come true! ☺️
If you're interested in more specific details about our plans for this year, sign up for our newsletter! We'll be sharing detailed plans in the next few days! 💌

Are New Year’s Resolutions Good? The Downsides of Setting New Year’s Goals
Tumblr media
New Year’s resolutions are a common tradition for many people who want to start the year with a fresh and positive outlook. They set goals for themselves, such as saving more money, losing weight, or learning a new skill. But are these goals really helpful, or do they actually hinder our progress and happiness? In this blog post, I will argue that setting New Year’s goals is not a good idea, and that we should focus instead on implementing routines and systems that help us become our better selves.
Why Goals Are Not Great
There are three main reasons why I think goals are not great, especially when they are formed at the beginning of the year.
1. Goals Set Us Up for Failure and Unrealistic Expectations
When we set a goal, we usually have a vision of what we want to achieve, and how we will feel when we get there. We imagine ourselves as a new person, with a new identity and a new life. But this vision is often unrealistic and disconnected from our current reality. We don’t take into account the challenges, obstacles, and setbacks that we will inevitably face along the way. We also don’t consider the trade-offs, sacrifices, and opportunity costs that we will have to make to pursue our goal.
For example, if you want to save 20% of your paycheck, but you currently save zero, you are setting yourself up for a huge gap between your expectation and your reality. You will have to drastically change your spending habits, cut down on your expenses, and possibly give up some of the things that you enjoy or need. You will also have to deal with the stress, pressure, and guilt that come with trying to stick to your budget. And if you fail to meet your goal, you will feel disappointed, frustrated, and demoralized.
Instead of setting a specific and rigid goal, it would be better to set a general and flexible direction. For example, you could say, “I want to save more money this year.” This way, you are not tied to a fixed number, but you are still motivated to improve your financial situation. You can also celebrate any progress that you make, no matter how small, and adjust your plan as you go along.
2. Goals Are Time-Bound and Don’t Tell You What to Do Next
Another problem with goals is that they are usually time-bound. They have a deadline, a finish line, or an end point. This means that once you achieve your goal, you are done. You have nothing else to strive for, nothing else to motivate you, nothing else to guide you. You might even feel lost, empty, or bored after reaching your goal.
Moreover, goals don’t tell you what to do next. They don’t tell you how to maintain your results, how to keep growing, or how to adapt to changing circumstances. They don’t tell you how to deal with the consequences, implications, or side effects of your achievement.
For example, if you want to lose 20 pounds, and you manage to do so by following a strict diet for a month, you might feel proud and happy for a while. But then what? How do you prevent yourself from gaining back the weight? How do you sustain your healthy eating habits? How do you cope with the social, emotional, and psychological aspects of your weight loss? How do you handle the feedback, comments, or reactions of others?
Instead of focusing on a single and finite goal, it would be better to focus on a continuous and infinite process. For example, you could say, “I want to eat healthier and exercise more this year.” This way, you are not obsessed with a specific outcome, but you are committed to a lifestyle change. You can also enjoy the journey, learn from your experiences, and adjust your actions as you go along.
3. Systems Create a Happier, More Sustainable, and More Fulfilling Life
The third and final reason why I think goals are not great is that they are not as effective as systems in creating a happier, more sustainable, and more fulfilling life. Systems are the habits, routines, and practices that we follow on a regular basis, without relying on willpower, motivation, or external rewards. Systems are the things that we do automatically, effortlessly, and consistently, because they are part of who we are and how we live.
Systems are better than goals for several reasons. First, systems are more realistic and achievable. They are based on our current situation, our available resources, and our personal preferences. They are also flexible and adaptable, allowing us to modify them as we learn, grow, and change. Second, systems are more rewarding and satisfying. They provide us with immediate feedback, positive reinforcement, and intrinsic motivation. They also allow us to enjoy the process, not just the outcome. Third, systems are more impactful and meaningful. They have a cumulative and compounding effect, leading to exponential and lasting results. They also align with our values, purpose, and vision, making us feel more authentic and fulfilled.
For example, if you want to write a book, instead of setting a goal of writing a certain number of words or pages by a certain date, you could create a system of writing every day, at a specific time and place, for a specific duration and quality. This way, you are not stressed about the deadline, the word count, or the quality of your work, but you are focused on the habit of writing. You are also more likely to enjoy writing, improve your skills, and finish your book.
Conclusion
In conclusion, I believe that setting New Year’s resolutions is not a good idea, and that we should focus instead on implementing routines and systems that help us become our better selves. Goals are not great, because they set us up for failure and unrealistic expectations, they are time-bound and don’t tell us what to do next, and they are not as effective as systems in creating a happier, more sustainable, and more fulfilling life. Systems are better, because they are more realistic and achievable, more rewarding and satisfying, and more impactful and meaningful. So, this year, instead of setting a goal, try creating a system. You might be surprised by the results.
