The most awkward time of the year takes place between December 25th and January 1st. We don't know whether we should keep partying, start planning or maybe a combination of both. With that being said, I often see two camps of people start to arise on social media platforms. We have the community of people who use this time for celebration, reflection and focus on the upcoming opportunity of the new year. We also have the community who maybe burnt out, suffering, and anticipating what might happen in 2021 considering the year of 2020. In either situation, I find that the most effective devil in America (the MEDIA) is typically hammering us with the idea that regardless of what community you are a part of, you need to make a massive change to your life in these 6 days or you will somehow miss out on the magical unicorn of winning life in 2021. I think this is a terrible strategy and one that we all need to boycott. All you have to do is look at your social media memories on Jan 1 and see what "resolutions" you had made last year to realize that you quit that by January 14th. Instead, I like to offer a solution that many of you know you need to do, but for some reason forget to do it. I challenge you to evaluate your habits. With this four part strategy I give you today, this will be the key to setting up 2021 for the greatest year ever. Just remember, at the end of the day, New Years Resolutions aren't all they are cracked up to be...but Habits are...and most importantly — your habits are either leading you closer to or further away from your goals.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does the message in "33: The 4 steps to winning 2021" connect to physical healing and nervous system health?
At Hope Upper Cervical Spine Center, we see every day that lasting recovery requires both structural alignment and daily personal stewardship. When your nervous system is free of upper cervical interference and your daily habits are grounded in discipline and consistency, your body has the foundation it needs to heal and thrive.
Why does consistency matter so much when restoring long-term spinal and neurological health?
Just like building mental resilience or physical strength, stabilizing ligaments and retraining chronic neurological patterns takes intentional consistency. In Upper Cervical Care, "Holding is Healing"—each week your spine holds its alignment builds cumulative momentum toward lasting relief.
How is Upper Cervical Care at Hope Southlake different from quick-fix symptom management?
Rather than chasing temporary symptom relief with medications or generalized spinal popping, Dr. Joey Kramer uses 3D imaging and paraspinal thermography to correct the root structural misalignment at the Atlas (C1) and Axis (C2) with zero twisting or cracking.
