Is it a lack of willpower? Not really. In this article, transition coach Laurence Shukor explains why most resolutions fail and shares some practical tips for turning intentions into lasting change.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-janvier-le-mois-des-promesses-et-des-renoncements-discrets\"><strong>January: the month of promises&#8230; and quiet renunciations<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n<p>At the start of every year, the scenario is the same.<br\/><br\/>We promise to exercise more, eat better, get more organised, slow down, and change certain habits. We&#8217;re full of energy and optimism.<\/p>\n\n<p>Then February arrives.<br\/><br\/>Resolutions begin to fade away, quietly, without fanfare. Sneakers gather dust, good intentions get lost in the daily grind.<\/p>\n\n<p>It&#8217;s not a lack of willpower.<br\/><br\/>It&#8217;s a misunderstanding about the nature of change.<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-le-mythe-de-la-motivation\"><strong>The myth of motivation<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n<p>We like to believe that motivation is the key to everything. However, it is unstable and sensitive to stress, fatigue, and unforeseen events. It fluctuates, sometimes significantly, without warning.<\/p>\n\n<p>As Peter Drucker, a leading figure in modern management, pointed out:<\/p>\n\n<p>\u201cPlans are only good intentions if they are not immediately translated into concrete actions.\u201d<\/p>\n\n<p>A resolution fails not because of a lack of desire, but because it too often remains at the stage of intention. Without practical implementation, it fades away in the face of everyday constraints.<\/p>\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-embedded-content\" data-secret=\"QWfM9urXTW\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.monaco-tribune.com\/en\/2025\/11\/how-can-we-turn-the-discomfort-of-change-into-inner-strength\/\">How can we turn the discomfort of change into inner strength?<\/a><\/blockquote><iframe class=\"wp-embedded-content\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts\" security=\"restricted\" style=\"position: absolute; visibility: hidden;\" title=\"&#8220;How can we turn the discomfort of change into inner strength?&#8221; &#8212; Monaco Tribune\" src=\"https:\/\/www.monaco-tribune.com\/en\/2025\/11\/how-can-we-turn-the-discomfort-of-change-into-inner-strength\/embed\/#?secret=d5XpsR8Myq#?secret=QWfM9urXTW\" data-secret=\"QWfM9urXTW\" width=\"500\" height=\"282\" frameborder=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-trop-trop-vite-trop-parfait\"><strong>Too much, too fast, too perfect<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n<p>Another classic trap is wanting to change everything at once.<br\/><br\/>A new lifestyle, new goals, a new rhythm, immediately and permanently.<\/p>\n\n<p>This perfectionism is often fuelled by familiar internal demands: be perfect, make an effort, hurry up.
