Reaching Those Goals

How to Crush Your 2025 Goals: Coach Martin's Proven 3-Step Formula

January 09, 20252 min read

Welcome to The Coach Martin Show! It’s January 2025—a time when excitement is high, the slate is clean, and we’re all setting goals for the year ahead. But let’s face it: most of us start strong and lose steam. Think about it: gyms are packed the first week of January but eerily quiet by February.

Why does this happen? Often, we fail to create a strategy that keeps us motivated and on track. That’s where I come in! Today, I’m sharing 3 powerful steps that have helped me crush my goals year after year. Whether your goal is losing weight, growing a business, or mastering a new skill, these steps will be a game-changer. Let’s dive in!


Step 1: Have a Big Why

The first step to achieving any goal is knowing why you set it. What’s driving you? Why is this goal important?

  • Your “why” is your anchor. It keeps you steady when things get tough.

  • When you feel like quitting, remember why you started. Maybe it’s improving your health for your family, building financial freedom, or chasing a lifelong dream.

If your “why” is big enough, it will outweigh the excuses that come up along the way. Without a strong “why,” it’s easy to give up when things get hard.


Step 2: Get Accountability

No one succeeds alone. Whether it’s a mentor, coach, or accountability partner, having someone to hold you responsible can make all the difference.

  • Why it works: Life is full of distractions. Accountability helps keep you focused and motivated.

  • Practical tips: If your goal is fitness, get a workout buddy or hire a trainer. If it’s business-related, find a mentor who has already walked the path you’re on.

Accountability partners will pick you up when you fall, push you when you’re slacking, and celebrate your wins. Don’t underestimate the power of support!


Step 3: Persevere Until the End

There’s a saying: “Perseverance is man’s precious possession.” Achieving goals isn’t about perfection; it’s about persistence.

  • Stay consistent: Even if progress feels slow, keep going. Small, daily efforts add up over time.

  • Visualize success: Think of water carving through a rock. It doesn’t happen overnight, but persistence always wins.

Resistance is part of the process. The struggles you face will only make you stronger, and the victory will be sweeter when you push through.
