Obviously the best time to plant a tree is twenty years ago. The earlier you get started on something that takes time, the better and bigger the results will be.
It would have been better if you had tackled the changes you needed to make in your life in 2023. Or 2024. Or 2025. January 1st, 2026 has come and gone, which would have been a great day to start new habits, to make new changes. A new year…a chance for a new you. A fresh moment, a fresh calendar, a fresh new page.
All those moments are gone, just as your chance to plant that tree two decades ago is as well. Missed opportunities, they belong to death, as Seneca once said about the days that pass us by. They are gone, never to return. That's sad.
But as the second half of that expression about trees goes, the next best time is now.
Today, now, is a new opportunity to start. "This is what you deserve," Marcus Aurelius wrote. "You could be good today. But instead you choose tomorrow." No, not tomorrow…choose to be good today. Adopt the mindset of the great Steven Pressfield, who writes in Put Your Ass Where Your Heart Wants To Be, "Here's my frame of mind as I sit down to work: This is the day. There is no other day. This is the day."
It would have been great if you jumped on this challenge on January 1st, but don't despair. Sometimes life happens, but here's your second chance. Don't wait for the bus to come all the way back around next year. This is the day. Now is now. Now is the best time to start being the person you want to be. Which is why we're doing a limited re-launch of the 2026 New Year, New You Challenge. Typically, the New Year, New You Challenge is live for the first three weeks of the new year. But, we've heard from so many people that either came back from vacation late or were sick or or stumbled on their resolutions or are filled with anxiety about what has already happened this year, so we've decided to bring it back.
