Sticking to New Year's Resolutions
Episode 27
Monday, 5 January, 2026

Happy New Year! Have you set yourself a resolution? If so, in this episode, I share how a behaviourist psychologist would approach sticking to them and sailing past Quitters Day on January 17th.The principles are taken from a book called Self-Help Without The Hype by Professor Robert Epstein. I was honoured to have written the foreword to the new edition last year, in which I reflect on how the world has changed since the book's original release in 1996, yet the general lessons within the book remain unchanged.The new edition is currently on offer for the new year.Grab a copy for your Kindle on Amazon.Amazon (UK): https://amzn.eu/d/flAlEYlAmazon (US): https://a.co/d/6naeckROr you can buy a printed version here: https://books.by/pauldaviesSend us a textYou can watch the video of this episode on YouTube at https://www.youtube.com/@EverythingsPsychology
