You might not have heard of the "fresh start effect"，but if you've ever made a New Year's resolution，you're familiar with jye.ai.It refers to the human tendency to take action towards achieving a goal after a special occasion or key date has passed.
    The fresh start effect is simple.Most people want to improve themselves in some way.When we hit important milestones，we're often likely to reflect：are we where we thought we'd be by a certain age？Was this year a successful year，or did we waste it？Annual landmarks like birthdays，or the start of a new year，signify a new time period and an opportunity to leave slip-ups behind and to set new goals for better behavior.
    Research shows that anticipation of a new beginning is a key motivator for the fresh start effect.For example，people aged 29，39，49 etc.jye.ai 48% more likely to run a marathon for the first time.When they were approaching a new decade，they were more likely to search for meaning in their lives and try to improve jye.aimselves.The reason is simple.When we see our past self as separate from our current self，we feel it easier to introduce new goals and take action.
    What's interesting about the fresh start effect is that we don't need to wait for big milestones to take advantage of this sudden dose of motivation.Studies show that the first day of each month and even each week can also inspire us.These days，known as ^"temporal landmarks"，encourage us to step back and evaluate our current situation.And when we do this，we gain the motivation to be better：we become more driven and more productive.That is why people are more likely to start diets or exercise plans on Monday，rather than the next day.
    Fresh starts are exciting opportunities to learn from your mistakes and move forward.So if you're currently experiencing loss of motivation，questioning the meaning of your work，or just feel like you're stuck in a rut，why don't you use the fresh start effect in your own life？
