🎙️ My Future Podcast: Making Goals Stick in 2025 🎯

Hey, everyone! Welcome to My Future Podcast and a brand-new year! I’m Carson — archery enthusiast, high schooler, and your guide to building goals that actually stick. In this episode, we’re diving into how to set meaningful goals and create systems to stay committed throughout 2025. Did you know that 43% of people give up on their New Year’s resolutions by February? (Statista, 2022). We’re changing that this year by focusing on sustainable habits, the value of mentorship, and proven strategies to stay on track.

Here’s what’s coming up:

• 🎯 Tips from James Clear (Atomic Habits) and Dr. Angela Duckworth (Grit).
• 🎯 Why mentors, like Brady Ellison’s coaches, are the ultimate game-changers.
• 🎯 Science-backed hacks to stay committed—even on tough days.
• 🎯 How small wins and habit stacking can make a huge difference.
• 🎯 My own 2025 goals and how we can work toward success together.

This year, let’s make goals not just about what we achieve, but who we become along the way. Tune in to get inspired, stay focused, and start crushing 2025 like never before. Let’s do this! 🚀

2025 is almost here, and I’m not just making resolutions — I’m building the future I want, and I’m inviting you to do the same. In this episode, I’ll share my strategies for owning your growth, staying curious, and shifting your mindset to make big things happen. From the work ethic of Caitlin Clark to the optimism of President Jimmy Carter and the bold moves of Ryan Reynolds, I’m breaking down how consistency, learning, and the right people can take you to the next level.

So grab a pen (or your notes app) because we’re setting real goals—short-term, one-year, and long-term dreams — and getting ready to make 2025 our best year yet. This is your time to grow, learn, and explore the life you want. Let’s crush it together! 🎯
