Consistency Over Intensity: How Small Habits Create Big Health Wins

Build Sustainable Family Wellness Routines in 2026 with LAC Philippines

New Year’s resolutions, rooted in hope and the desire for a fresh start, will once again motivate millions of Filipinos as 2026 begins. A Forbes Health/OnePoll survey shows that more than 60 percent of adults feel pressured to set resolutions and often choose three or more goals for the year. Yet research cited by Verywell Mind notes that over 90 percent of resolutions fade within months because people aim too big, move too quickly, or commit to changes they cannot sustain.

Experts explain that resolutions often fail when they rely on drastic, all-or-nothing shifts that are difficult to maintain. Extreme diets, intense workout plans, and sudden lifestyle overhauls can create frustration rather than progress. Psychologists emphasize that meaningful change begins with understanding your motivation and breaking larger goals into practical habits that you can repeat each day.
