The Truth About New Year Resolutions (No One Tells You)
New year, new goals… but why do so many of us fall off track within weeks? In this episode of Red, White, and Brown, Prerak and Sofia break down the psychology of New Year’s resolutions and why the traditional way of setting goals might actually be setting you up for failure. We dive into the difference between outcome-based vs input-based goals, the science behind why telling people your goals can reduce motivation, and how to use the SMART framework to create goals that actually stick. We also talk about the pressure within the Desi community to constantly achieve more—balancing ambition with rest, navigating comparison with peers, and learning how to truly “run your own race.” From fitness and finances to career and relationships, this episode is about building a system that works—not just dreaming about results. If you’ve ever felt behind, overwhelmed, or stuck… this one’s for you.
