Despite all the wants, desires & wishes… a new year doesn’t guarantee a new you.

However, what changes everything is HOW you design your goals, your mission, and your daily actions.

In my latest newsletter, I break down a practical, evidence‑informed approach to goal setting for 2026.

The focus is simple:

- Move from vague resolutions to a clear mission that aligns with your values and identity.

- Translate that mission into process and approach goals you can actually live out.

- Keep actions simple, sustainable and flexible enough to survive the chaos of real life.

- Use visual tools and accountability to stay motivated long after the New Year buzz has faded.

If you are an executive or leader who wants 2026 to be a year of progress this one is definitely for you.

👉 Read my newsletter on Linkedin and contemplate properly your year ahead.

👉 If you want some support, I’m offering three complimentary 1:1 consultations to help you design a plan for 2026. Send me a direct message to grab your slot.

Have a good day folks,
JB

Friday 9th January 2026 was National Quitters Day because it marked the point when most people abandoned their New Year’s resolutions. Annual data shows that the second Friday of January is the point in the year when motivation and follow-through on resolutions sharply drop.

Don’t burn out this December 🧨

My Healthy Habits Newsletter #56 is now available and it’s about one of the traits that separates high performers from all others… the ability to set and hold meaningful boundaries.

Burnout is rising across industries (especially in finance, law and technology) with recent data suggesting that well over three-quarters of high performers in these industries are reporting some level of burnout, often driven by blurred lines between work and life and the total inability to switch off.

In so many of my recent conversations with senior leaders and ambitious professionals, there is a repeated theme:

“I want to keep performing at a high level, but I also want a better balance.”

Today’s newsletter dives into how boundaries protect your energy, the pitfalls of always being “on”, and a practical framework for setting non‑negotiables and tiered goals so you can sustain success without sacrificing your health.

If you are curious about how to apply this in your own world, read my Healthy Habits Newsletter #56 and then reach out for a free 15‑minute discovery call to explore the goals and boundaries you could set for 2026.

Setting boundaries is essential for preserving our wellbeing and sustaining high performance. Recent research shows that clear boundaries prevent burnout, reduce anxiety, and promote emotional regulation, helping high performers maintain mental health while optimising their productivity and engageme

Did you know that 1 in 4 children in the UK are overweight or obese by the time they start primary school? This rises to 1 in 3 by age 11. A major contributor to these horrendous statistics is high-sugar breakfast cereals.

Food companies use sneaky marketing tactics to make their sugary products seem nutritious:

🔹 Using words like "wholegrain" or "fortified"
🔹 Featuring cartoon characters to appeal to kids
🔹 Expand on highly recognised and established brands
🔹 Placing products at children's eye level in supermarkets

Take Nestlé's new KitKat cereal which I discovered to my shock yesterday in my local supermarket with my 2 kids. Picture the boardroom scene discussing how to increase this year’s profits and the suggestion of turning their popular snack into a breakfast cereal! 🍫🥣📈💰💰💰

Of course, this product’s information is aimed carefully at adults, but when I took these pictures, it’s on a shelf at knee level, and we all know what that’s about.

Even the Health Traffic Light system in well disguised (red on red) and the straplines, in my opinion, are absolutely shocking:

😲”The delicious taste of chocolate & wafer, now for breakfast”
😲”Give in to our crunchy whole grain & wafer taste”
😲”Experience the full cocoa taste explosion”

The recommended daily sugar intake for children aged 4-6 is just 19g, yet cereals like these contain more than half of this in a single serving. This has 7.4g in a 30g bowl - that’s if you (or your child) can stop there!

Isn’t it time we saw through these tactics and made informed choices for our children's health? I’m so thankful that neither of my kids were interested in this product.

How about you? Would you buy this product? If not, what’s your go-to healthy breakfast option, and how about your kids? Please share in the comments below! 👇

🩸 Did you know that Northern Ireland needs 1,200 blood donors every week?

⏰ That’s roughly 1 donation every 8 minutes is needed!

⭐️ Every blood donation saves or improves 3 people’s lives.
One giving = three living.

⚠️ Yet only 6% of the eligible population in NI donate blood.

Donated blood is used to help people for many different reasons: people who have experienced traumatic injuries such as those sustained in road traffic accidents, people going through surgeries including transplants, women following childbirth, newborn and premature babies, people living with illnesses such as liver disease, Sickle Cell Disease and various types of cancer.

Donated blood is used within 3-5 days of the donation being given and there is a constant demand for people to give blood.

If you're able to donate, you should strongly consider becoming a regular donor.

People can start giving blood from the age of 17. To become a donor, search online for ‘give blood NI’ text BLOOD to 60081.

This was the topic I spoke about this week on my regular Tuesday morning slot on U105. You can listen back to the audio below 👂👇

How would you encourage more people to register?



*Listen out of me on U105 at 11:15 on Tuesdays for my series on Healthy Habits. The link to my previous episodes on YouTube is in comments.

A massive thank you to Jonny Bloomfield Health Coach , who gave blood earlier this week AND encouraged U105 listeners to become blood donors, during Tuesday's 'Health Matters' segment of the Frank Mitchell Show 👏

Blood donations are used within 3-5 days, meaning Dr Jonny's may be in use this very minute to save 3 people's lives in NI 🤯🤩 Well done!!

It’s hard finding work:life balance in some industries ⏳

Over the past month I’ve been delivering workshops to encourage busy professionals to find ways to create better balance, especially in industries where working long hours is standard (incl. accounting 🧮, construction 👷‍♂️, transport 🚢, and professional football ⚽️).

➡️ Topics I've covered have included:

📌 The Stress Response
📌 Stress Mindset & Appraisal
📌 Situational Stress Management
📌 Amygdala Hijack
📌 Emotional Regulation
📌 Costs of Workaholism
📌 Hyper-Arousal & Switching Off
📌 Recovery Drivers & Drainers
📌 Sleep Science & Scheduling
📌 Fatigue Management
📌 Brownout & Burnout
📌 Building Resilience
📌 Finding Purpose
📌 Priorities & Productivity
📌 Career Longevity
📌 Sustainable Health & Happiness

I recently ran a poll on LinkedIn asking my network if it had a good work:life balance. 56% said “Yes” ✅ and 44% said “No” ❌ ...that’s quite a lot of people saying NO. Isn’t it?

One suggestion to maybe help find better work:life balance is to create two lists:

👉Things that I’m prepared to sacrifice (and let go of)
👉Things that are simply non-negotiable (no matter what)

What sort of things would you put on your lists?

Last week's newsletter encouraged you to drink more water and start early in the year to form a good habit of drinking 1.2L - 1.5L by 6pm everyday. 🚰💧

I recommended filling a water bottle every morning to help you achieve this goal, how'd that go for you? Despite reaching my 1.5L goal ok on 5 of the 7 days, I failed miserably with the water bottle habit, but I've ordered myself a nice new bottle so that's going to spark a change for me this week... 💡

Hope you do enjoy this week's article, it's a bit longer than usual and there's a short video in there too, but I highly recommended reading this one and absorbing the info, it may well change one of the most important things you do...

Thanks so much for subscribing and sharing. I'm delighted to now have >1,000 followers. I've also been asked to speak on local radio here in NI every Tuesday about whatever I'm promoting each Monday.

Do you drink bottled water? Would this be an easy habit to change for you?
Let me know in comments 👇

My previous article was about encouraging you to simple drink more water, but should you also be more thoughtful about the water that you drink? This article’s aim is to make you think a little bit more about that… Firstly, when at home, we usually will go to the kitchen tap to fill up a glass o...
