Stop Doing These 3 Things Now, Your 2025 Business Success Depends on It

The start of a new year feels like cracking open a fresh planner—full of big goals, exciting ideas, and all the things you think you need to do to make 2025 your best year yet. But here’s the truth: building a thriving business isn’t just about adding more to your plate—it’s about letting go of what’s been holding you back.

Whether you’re just starting out or ready to scale to the next level, creating space for clarity, focus, and aligned action is key to your success. That’s why in this blog, we’re diving into the Rule of 3’s—your permission slip to release the habits, activities, and beliefs that are draining your time, energy, and focus.

Before we dive into setting big goals for 2025, let’s first look at what’s not serving you and what it’s time to let go of. Because once you clear that clutter, you’ll create the space, mindset, and energy you need to thrive. Let’s get started!

In order to create the business success you want in the new year, what are:

3 habits you need to release that are costing you time, money, focus, or energy?

Here are some examples:

• Constantly checking social media without a clear purpose or strategy

• Overthinking every decision instead of taking imperfect action

• Procrastinating by prioritizing low-impact tasks over revenue-generating activities

• Consuming excessive free content without implementing what you've learned

• Ignoring metrics and data, leading to wasted efforts on non-performing strategies

• Spending hours on aesthetics (e.g., Canva designs) rather than creating valuable offers or content

• Checking Instagram constantly without engaging meaningfully with your audience or analyzing what works

• Offering overly customized meal plans/workouts for every client instead of a scalable system

• Comparing yourself to other wellness coaches online, leading to self-doubt and inaction

3 activities you need to release that are costing you time, money, focus, or energy?

Here are some examples:

• Customizing each client’s program instead of creating a scalable signature system

• Offering services or freebies outside your niche that dilute your brand focus

• Engaging in “comparison scrolling” and feeling stuck instead of inspired

• Trying to serve everyone instead of focusing on your ideal audience

• Creating multiple offers at once instead of mastering and scaling one

• Constantly giving free advice in DMs instead of redirecting to a discovery call or program

• Designing overly detailed wellness guides for free, with no clear CTA to a paid offer

• Trying to keep up with every wellness certification instead of mastering one area and marketing it effectively

3 Thoughts/Limiting Beliefs that are costing you time, money, focus, or energy?

Here are some examples:

• "I need to have perfect abs, skin, or be a size 6 to be seen as credible"

• "I can’t start until I’ve perfected my own health journey"

• "I shouldn’t charge for wellness coaching because it’s just my passion"

• "No one will trust me because I’m not a dietitian or medical professional"

• "I need a perfect website or social media brand before I can start working with clients"

• "I need to know everything before I can teach or coach someone else"

• "If I charge too much, no one will buy my program"

• "I need to work harder and longer hours to be successful"

• "People won’t invest in my coaching because I’m not an expert yet"

• "I need to wait for the right time to launch my program or business"

• “I don’t deserve to make that much money”

What are YOUR specific limiting beliefs you need to release?

Now it’s time to put this into action. Remember, building a thriving business isn’t just about adding more to your plate; it’s about letting go of the habits, activities, and thoughts that no longer serve you.

So, take a moment to reflect: What are you ready to release? Whether it’s overthinking, trying to do everything manually, or that pesky belief that you’re “not ready yet,” letting go is the first step toward creating a business (and life) that feels aligned, sustainable, and wildly successful.

Know that these habits, activities, and thoughts will likely resurface!

So when (not if) they do, imagine letting them go as you would a balloon or placing it on a leaf that’s going downstream away from you.

It might sound cheesy, but being aware and responding in a different way is key to letting these things go.

Here’s to stepping into 2025 with clarity, confidence, and focus! You’ve got this. 💪
