January starts with big promises. February brings excuses. By October, most goals are long forgotten. But what if the problem isn’t discipline… it’s how we’re setting ourselves up from the start? In this episode of The YES Show, Christine Trippi challenges the way we think about goals, momentum, and focus. She shares a deceptively simple concept that has guided her through career pivots, uncertainty, and some of her biggest professional milestones. This isn’t about adding more to your plate. It’s about choosing something that quietly shapes every decision you make, even when motivation disappears. 🍍 What You’ll Discover Why most well-intentioned goals quietly fall apart A simple framework that brings clarity without pressure How focus shows up when life gets noisy The subtle shift that changes how you say yes and no ✅ Try This After Listening Notice what keeps pulling at your attention this season Pay attention to the decisions that feel heavy or unclear Ask yourself what one thing could quietly guide them all 🔗 Connect with Christine Connect with Christine: 📍Website - https://www.thewisepineapple.com/ 📍Linkedin profile - https://www.linkedin.com/in/christine-trippi-56105311 📍Insta link - https://www.instagram.com/the_wise_pineapple/ 📍YouTube Link - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCU7LZGz1ZsveweIvpCIkrfQ/ 📍Join our FREE Facebook group of hoteliers - https://www.facebook.com/share/g/wDiuSA1RbSGqqtJH/ 📍Join the Crown Society! https://www.thewisepineapple.com/crown 📍Best Year Ever Event Link: https://www.thewisepineapple.com/bye2026 📍 One Word Freebie: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1nQOZ8cS7iHki4G77EZvUrJNw2y8NKzaj/view?usp=drive_link
