Share your midlife reinvention story with us <a href="https://stephanie197.typeform.com/to/BOdLYgvb" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">HERE</a>.You have a plan for how to succeed in the second half of the year, how to “get back on track.” And a plan, it turns out, is the most sophisticated way to actually stand still while feeling like you're moving.This is Part 2 of a special two-part midyear series on Good Life Project. In Part 1, Jonathan led a different kind of honest check-in, setting down the scorecard version of taking stock and actually looking at the one part of life that has been running quietly low. This episode is the moving part. It’s about taking action and building momentum, without waiting for a plan.In this episode, you'll explore:<ul><li>Why plans fail, and why the reason is not the one you've been told. The flaw isn't you. It's how plans are built.</li><li>The difference between a plan and a move, and why only one of them has ever actually changed a life.</li><li>Seven elements that make a move more likely to survive a bad week, including Peter Gollwitzer's research on implementation intentions.</li><li>The four traps that turn a move back into a plan, and how to recognize them before they happen.</li><li>Why the middle of the year is one of the most powerful fresh start landmarks available, and almost nobody uses it.</li><li>A five-step sequence you'll work through before this episode ends, leaving with a specific move already made, not planned.</li></ul>This episode is for anyone who has spent the first half of this year meaning to do something and hasn't yet. Not because you lacked motivation, but because you were waiting for the right conditions that were never going to arrive. They don't have to. You just have to make one move.<a href="https://www.goodlifeproject.com/podcast/jonathan-fields-midyear-momentum-fresh-start-intention-to-action" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Episode Transcript</a>If you LOVED this episode, <a href="https://www.goodlifeproject.com/ws2026/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">you can find the 1-page worksheet HERE.</a>Next week, I'm sitting down with an old friend, Jessica Ortner, to explore something that most people have never tried, that looks a little ridiculous at first, and that turns out to have a surprisingly serious body of research behind it. It's called tapping. We're not going to sell it, and we're not going to dismiss it. We're going to give it a genuinely honest look: what the science does and doesn't support, who it's actually for, and then Jessica is going to guide me through a real session, live, on the episode that you can follow along with in real time.
