Description

Why do singing resolutions fail every January? It's not your discipline—it's the model itself. In this Season 1 finale, we break down the two predictable failure modes of vocal resolutions and introduce a process-based alternative built on compound improvement.

Learn why 1% daily gains outperform breakthrough chasing, what your first 30 days should actually look like, and how long-term improvers think differently about progress.

In this episode:

  • Why willpower-based resolutions are designed to fail
  • The vagueness trap and the ambition-without-structure trap
  • How invisible progress leads singers to quit too early
  • A five-step framework for building sustainable practice
  • What separates plateau breakers from resolution chasers
