THE PROMPT

Here’s the Brutal Truth About Your "Failed" 2025 Goals (And How to Save Them).

The issue isn't that you dropped the ball in January. The REAL problem is thinking January 1st has some magical goal-setting power that February 1st doesn't.

Most people try these massive "new year, new me" transformations that would make even the most optimistic self-help guru nervous. Then they miss a few days and think, "Well, I guess I'll try again in 2026!"

That's like saying you can't start a road trip to California because you took a wrong turn in your driveway. Ridiculous, right?

1/ The No-BS Plan Prompt

I've built a prompt that creates a realistic, no-BS plan that works especially well for "January survivors" -- people who've already faced their first goal-setting reality check of the year.

Prompt:

Create a personalized 2025 plan with 5 actionable priorities. Include focus areas, distractions to avoid, preparations needed, and daily habits for staying productive and focused.

# Steps

1. Identify Priorities: List 5 actionable priorities for 2025.
2. Focus Areas: Define key areas to concentrate on for each priority.
3. Distractions: Identify potential distractions to avoid for each focus area.
4. Preparations: Outline necessary preparations to achieve each priority.
5. Daily Habits: Suggest daily habits to maintain productivity and focus.

# Output Format

- Priorities: A list of 5 priorities.
- Focus Areas: A brief description for each priority.
- Distractions: A list of distractions to avoid for each focus area.
- Preparations: A list of preparations needed for each priority.
- Daily Habits: A list of daily habits for productivity and focus.

# Notes

- Ensure each priority is actionable and specific.
- Consider both personal and professional aspects.
- Tailor the plan to individual needs and circumstances.

2/ No-BS Prompt in Action

After you paste this prompt into ChatGPT, you’ll see the list of priorities for 2025. This was mine.

For each priority, you’ll get a detailed plan on how to stick with it.

3/ Tips for Better Results

• EMBRACE THE JANUARY DATA: Use what didn't work in January as your secret weapon. Failed to hit the gym at 5 AM? Great -- now you know to schedule evening workouts instead.

• Do the "11/12ths Math": Whatever your yearly goal was, you can still hit 91.6% of it starting in February. That's an A- grade, last time I checked.

• The "Mini Q1" Hack: Treat February and March as your personal Q1. It's like getting a do-over with way less pressure and way more data about what actually works for you.

4/ Let Me Leave You With This

Here's the truth: January is basically a free trial month for your 2025 goals. The real players start their year now -- with battle-tested experience and zero New Year's hangover.

You didn't fail January. You just finished your warm-up.
