January is National Staying Healthy Month: 6 Questions to Ask to Find Your Why

While the new year often feels like the “right” time to set goals and resolutions, the truth is that meaningful change can begin at any moment! You don’t need a special date to start choosing yourself.

One of the most powerful drivers of lasting, sustainable change is understanding why it matters to you. When your actions are connected to a deeper purpose, motivation becomes stronger and you become more resilient.

Ask yourself these questions to find your why:

  • What are my core values?

  • What truly matters most to me?

  • A year from now, how do I want my health and well-being to improve?

  • Why is improving my health important to me?

  • How would my life improve if I followed through on these changes?

  • What will happen if I do not make any changes?

Your “why” is your anchor.

You deserve a life that supports your health, energy, and happiness.
The best time to begin is now.

Myth: Motivation alone is central to reaching your goals.

Fact: Motivation comes and goes. Lasting change requires skills, strategies, and habits beyond motivation.
