Sometimes, we all need a fresh start. But a New Year’s resolution isn’t the only time to take that first step towards a positive change. We have unique opportunities all the time in our ever-changing world to introduce new habits and routines and set ambitious goals for our work and personal lives. 
Google’s Head of Global Resilience, Dr. Lauren Whitt, discusses fresh starts with Dr. Katy Milkman, an award-winning behavior change expert and economist at the Wharton School at the University of Pennsylvania, and Justin Su’a, coach and Head of Mental Performance for the Tampa Bay Rays baseball team. They discuss Katy’s bestselling book “How to Change,” and Justin shares what we can learn from how elite athletes set and meet goals. Katy and Justin provide strategies to build effective routines when the only constant is change, and how to keep going when we drop the ball.

 

Together, they provide new insights on the optimal times and approaches to fresh starts to help us meet the moments that matter the most to us.
