The rearview mirror isn’t just a tool for checking what's behind you; it’s a way to measure distance, to see how far you’ve traveled. Every glance is a reminder of battles fought, roads you’ve conquered, and mistakes made along the way. You see the scars, the victories, and the quiet moments of growth that no one else saw. Yet, there’s something unspoken about looking back that’s deeper than just memories—it’s about checking the road you’ve traveled for signs of what’s next. Listen, it’s okay to look back for a moment. The past is a part of you. But it doesn’t get to decide where you go from here. You know there are many times I have had to look back in order to move forward. I need to be reminded of God’s faithfulness to have the strength and the courage to face the road ahead. Before we make New Year’s resolutions, perhaps we need to look in the rearview mirror of this past year to see where we have had victories and where God was so gracious. You see, New Year's resolutions for men aren’t just about hitting the gym or ticking off the usual list of “self-improvements.” New Year’s resolutions carry a weight that goes beyond self-improvement—they’re an opportunity to realign, to step into a year with purpose that echoes the teachings of Christ. It’s not just about setting goals, but about setting the right ones: to love deeper, serve more faithfully, and lead with humility. This year, it’s about growth, yes, but not the kind you can measure in pounds or numbers alone. It’s about becoming the man you are designed to be—the one who knows when to hustle and when to rest, when to speak up and when to listen, when to take risks, and when to double down on what matters. It’s not about perfection, but progress—pushing forward with eyes open to the journey God has for you. So I want to encourage you, before you move forward, look back. See the victories of last year and let them be the symbol of God’s work in you. God always accomplishes his Resolutions. Remember, “being confident of this, that he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus.” Philippians 1:6
