The Winter Arc: How to Finish the Year Strong and Start the New Year Ahead

As the end of the year approaches, most people start planning their New Year’s resolutions. The problem? By the time January rolls around, many resolutions are already on the path to failure. That’s why this year, we’re doing something different—something more effective: The Winter Arc.

Think of the Winter Arc as your personal 90-day challenge leading up to the New Year. While everyone else is waiting for January 1st to kickstart their goals, you’ll already be well ahead. Inspired by the relentless training montage from Rocky IV, this arc is about locking in, eliminating distractions, and making these last few months of the year count.

What is the Winter Arc?

The Winter Arc is your opportunity to start your New Year’s resolutions early. It’s about using the colder, darker months to your advantage, focusing on self-discipline, and honing in on four critical areas of growth:

  1. Move Your Body – Hybrid Training for Strength & Endurance Most of us hit the gym sporadically throughout the year, but the Winter Arc is about consistency and challenge. Set a goal to get stronger and improve your endurance at the same time. This means focusing on hybrid training that includes both lifting weights and building up your cardio. Whether you’re a weightlifting pro or haven’t run a mile in years, push yourself to do both.
  2. Create Content – Build Your Brand or Business Whether you're an entrepreneur or just want to grow your personal brand, content creation is a must. Use the next 90 days to get consistent with your content. If you’ve been putting off YouTube videos, blogs, or even social media posts, now’s the time to dive in. Focus on quantity first and refine the quality as you go.
  3. Read More – 20 Minutes a Day Every successful person knows that reading is a gateway to new ideas, insights, and growth. Just 20 minutes a day can make a huge difference. Choose books that align with your goals—whether they’re business books, self-development, or biographies of people you admire.
  4. Journal and Reflect – Gain Clarity and Set Intentions Writing is an underrated tool for self-mastery. Use journaling to debrief your day, set your goals, and track your progress. It’s a way to clear your mind, identify challenges, and stay focused on what matters. In the Winter Arc, journaling will help you refine your vision and hold yourself accountable.

Why Start Before the New Year?

Most people wait until January to make their resolutions, but by that time, it's easy to lose momentum or motivation. The Winter Arc flips that script. By starting 90 days before January 1st, you’ll be walking into the New Year with confidence, momentum, and results already underway.

Think about how much easier it will be to maintain progress when you’re already hitting your goals. Instead of starting from zero, you’ll be ahead of the game—fit, focused, and ready for anything.

How to Design Your Winter Arc

The beauty of the Winter Arc is that it’s flexible. While we recommend focusing on the four key areas (fitness, content, reading, journaling), your arc can include anything you want to improve. Maybe it’s learning a new skill, developing a side hustle, or working on personal relationships. The important thing is that you use these 90 days to set yourself up for long-term success.

  • Be consistent: Don’t overwhelm yourself. Set manageable goals, but commit to showing up every day.
  • Track your progress: Whether it’s through journaling or other means, make sure you’re tracking your growth.
  • Celebrate small wins: Recognize the progress you make along the way. This isn’t just about the end result—it’s about the journey.

Final Thoughts: What Will You Focus On?

The Winter Arc is about taking advantage of the last 90 days of the year. While everyone else is preparing for their holiday slump, you’ll be preparing to finish the year strong. So what will you focus on during your Winter Arc? Share your goals in the comments below!
