The Resolution Trap: Why ‘All-or-Nothing’ is the Enemy of Consistency
The "New Year, New Me" energy is a powerful motivator, but it often comes with a hidden trap: the all-or-nothing mindset.

However, groundbreaking research reveals that this psychological rigidity is exactly why most resolutions fail by February. To make 2026 the year your fitness goals actually stick, you need to swap "perfection" for "flexibility."

Thinking of cricket coaches, clubs and teams?
Playing cricket socially or in a club can be a fun and exciting way to enjoy the sport. Cricket is a popular sport in many countries, and there are many different ways to play it.
One way to play socially is to organize a casual game with friends or family in a park or other open space. This can be a great way to spend time outdoors and enjoy the game with people you know. You can use a soft ball and make your own wicket using any available objects, and make your own rules for the game.
Another way to play cricket socially is by joining a local club. Cricket clubs often have teams that compete in local leagues and tournaments, which can be a great way to meet new people and improve your skills. These clubs usually have proper cricket grounds, equipment, facilities, and training sessions. Many clubs also offer coaching and training for players of all skill levels. Joining a club can be a great way to take your love of the sport to the next level and become a more serious player.
Playing in a club or league also opens up opportunities to participate in tournaments or matches held at different levels, such as district, state, national, and international levels. These matches give you a chance to play with or against more experienced or skilled players and can help you learn new techniques and strategies.
Overall, whether you play cricket socially or in a club, the most important thing is to have fun and enjoy the game!
