Identity Beats Goals: Why Waiting for the New Year Never Works

About this episode

Everyone talks about goals at the end of the year.

Very few people talk about identity.

In this episode, Coach G (Gurthro Steenkamp) explains why waiting for the New Year — or 2026 — is the reason most people stay stuck, frustrated, and inconsistent.

This conversation is about:

  • Why New Year’s resolutions don’t last

  • Why identity matters more than motivation

  • How habits are really formed (and broken)

  • What high performers do differently

  • Why clarity, systems, and standards matter more than hype
