“The secret of getting ahead is getting started.” – Mark Twain. After a busy start to the year, July presents the perfect opportunity to revisit your goals and reignite your drive. By now, the excitement of the new year may have worn off, but the second half of the year still holds immense potential.

Research shows that over 70% of people set New Year's resolutions, but only 8% achieve them. If you feel like you've fallen off track, you're not alone. But here's the good news—July offers a mid-year reset, a chance to reflect, reassess, and re-energize your strategy. It's time to pick up where you left off and bring renewed focus to your personal, professional, and financial goals.

The key to getting back on track is creating actionable steps. Break down your goals into manageable chunks and prioritize what matters most. With a fresh perspective and clear intention, July is your launchpad for achieving what you set out to do, no matter where you are in your journey.

July is a month filled with celebration, action, and reflection. As the year hits its mid-point, it's a time to embrace new opportunities, revisit goals, and enjoy the long summer days. Here's what makes July stand out:

A recent study by the University of Oxford found that people with close friendships are 50% more likely to live longer, underlining the importance of nurturing these bonds.
• Mid-Year Check-In: July marks the middle of the year, making it the ideal time to assess progress toward your goals. Studies show that 92% of New Year’s resolutions fail, but July provides the perfect opportunity to reevaluate your plans and reset your intentions for the second half of the year.
• Summer Vacations: With summer in full swing, July is a peak vacation month for many. According to a survey by the U.S. Travel Association, 55% of Americans take a trip during the summer, recharging their minds and bodies while exploring new places or enjoying quality time with loved ones.

Whether you’re relaxing or working hard toward your dreams, July offers the perfect opportunity to press reset and push forward.
