Chris Williamson: If You Don't Fix This Now, 2026 Is Already Over!

Highest ROI of my life: getting a dog. I don’t have a garden. I live alone. No friends. No family. Lil puppo forced me outside. Forced me to walk. Forced me into sunlight, movement, routine, and responsibility. Forced gentle social contact with other humans. Forced me out of screens and into the present. I’ve lived with depression, anxiety, psychosis, schizophrenia.. the kind that makes you hide from the world just to survive. The unconditional love of a dog unlocked a version of life I genuinely didn’t believe existed. I went from chasing death… to chasing LIFE. She’s 3 years old now & because of her I have real friends, real connections, and the beginnings of family where none existed before. If you want a reason to live: take responsibility for life. For me, that started with a dog. She then taught me how to be responsible for my own life, and thus, I can be responsible for any ❤ Thank you for taking the time to read ❤

My biggest ROI this past year was to call my mom every Sunday just to chat.

Biggest ROI this year: Quitting drinking (6 months sober) Quitting vaping (11 months without it) Quitting drugs (7 months sober) Reading every day (11 books this year) All-but quitting insta and X (went on Christmas Day to message some friends and instantly felt more miserable) Ditching my ‘friend’ who does nothing but smoke weed and play video games every day and got me into coke (it’s a long story, it was actually a falling out, but it’s been for the best. I’ve actually been able to save money for the first time in 3 years) Honourable mention: skincare twice a day, increasing amount of sleep from 7 to 8 (only recently done this, but I’ve felt some positive changes already) I want to start walking more (currently average 6k steps/day - might add in a morning walk like Chris suggested here), and meditating. Edit: also expecting a baby boy in February and getting married this year. Happy new year everyone! 🎉

I am 77 years old. I 'm the Mexican fisherman. I'm happy.

My biggest ROI resolution happened in 2013. I was 24 and working as a cashier. I had a boss that was constantly putting me down and my self-esteem was super low. So, I made a resolution to make it my year of self improvement. That fall I started taking business classes at the local community college. Nobody in my family had went to college. I kept going, and those classes turned into a BS in Economics and then a MS in Business Analytics. Now I am a leader in a Fortune 500 company. All from a New Year's resolution at a time when I felt like shit about myself.

“The answers you seek are in the silence you avoid.”

My ROI this year: Completely quit alcohol. Ditched people who drained me and finally found people how actually care. Quit vaping Quit drugs Survived to celebrate my 2 year suicide attempt anniversary. Started Uni. I call my mom every day. I'm so very grateful to be here after everything I've been through. To anyone going through it right now, know you are stroger than you think, get to know yourself, and know anything is possible as long as you believe, you will get to where you want to be❤.

Never ever hit the snooze button. You kept the promise to ur self and will be able to have the time for what you planned that morning. Its a great start to the day

Biggest ROI of 2025 was giving my life for Jesus Christ. Salvation is happiness wrapped up for us all and supercedes the material as it is eternal. This is our blessed hope
