Set Your Intentions for 2025: A Sustainable Approach to Growth for Global Rockstars

As we welcome a new year, many feel motivated to set ambitious goals—hitting the gym more regularly, embracing healthier habits, or tackling work with renewed focus. Yet, for so many, these resolutions fizzle out before January has even ended.

It’s no secret that sustaining these commitments can be challenging. The demands of daily life often pull us back into old routines, and sometimes, we even notice our workaholic tendencies creeping in more vigorous than ever.

But here’s the truth: achieving meaningful, lasting change doesn’t require a dramatic sprint into the new year. Instead, it’s about creating weekly practices, fostering self-discipline, and building a support system that keeps you on track.

That’s why I want to share five proven strategies to help you set intentions and turn them into sustainable practices for the New Year.

1 – Start with a Global Rockstar Session

To create lasting change, clarity is key. In our initial Global Rockstar Session, we’ll identify three primary career or life goals tailored to your aspirations. These goals will serve as the foundation of your journey.  You can also use the Global Rockstar Session to understand why and where you are professionally and personally. This is your first action baby step to gain clarity and move out of your rut.

2 – Leverage the RockMeApp for Weekly Practices

Success isn’t about monumental leaps but consistent, small steps. Using our RockMeApp, you’ll define up to ten weekly practices aligned with your goals. This checklist keeps you on track, helping you build momentum week by week. It’s like going to the gym; it’s hard at first, but it gets easier when you make a habit. Once you do the practices regularly, you will miss them when you stop. Good examples for you would be 

• 25 minutes of reading
• One professional blind date
• One expert or user experience interview
• One artist date with yourself

3 – Set Learning Targets for Skill Building

Feeling overwhelmed by a goal often comes down to gaps in skills, knowledge, or mindset. Together, we’ll break your goals into actionable sub-goals and set learning targets based on my global competency model. With my guidance, you’ll approach challenges with confidence and purpose. The Global Rockstar program was built based on the Global Competency Model and the Global Rockstar Cube. Both frameworks should help you progress.

4 – Focus on Three High Priorities Each Week

Continue to improve your productivity and performance through strategic prioritization. You’ll stay motivated by identifying three high priorities for the following week at the end of the week. I’ve followed this approach for years, and it’s transformed my productivity and sense of achievement.

Crossing off high-priority tasks provides the positive feedback your brain needs to keep moving forward. You also train yourself to think more strategically. If you struggle with prioritizing, I recommend that you review the productivity hacks again.

5 – Reflect Weekly for Ten Minutes

Reflected experiences are essential for growth. At the end of each week, take ten minutes to answer four key questions (available through the RockMeApp). This simple practice helps you evaluate progress, celebrate wins, and adjust for the week ahead. The path to lasting change is built on self-awareness, consistent effort, and a solid plan. Whether you’re seeking personal or professional transformation, I’m here to guide you.

Here’s to your health, peace and prosperity in 2025!
