🟡 New Year’s Eve — The Moment When Illusions Should Fall

Each year, we change the date,

without always having the courage to revisit what no longer works.

The transition from 2025 to 2026 is anything but an automatic renewal.

In reality, more than 80% of the resolutions made on that night will not survive beyond February.

Not for lack of willpower.

But for lack of lucidity.

At midnight, it’s not only glasses that clink.

It’s the narratives we tell ourselves.

Behind polite wishes lie avoided assessments.

Behind controlled smiles, structural fatigue.

Behind bold statements about “the year ahead,” decisions that should have been made long ago.

Changing the year is not symbolic.

It is an act of human reading.

Reading what endured… out of conviction.

Reading what endured… out of inertia.

Reading what quietly eroded without ever being named.

Weak signals do not lie.

Energy declining for no apparent reason.

New irritation toward situations once tolerated.

Growing clarity that others label as “negativity.”

In reality, these are not weaknesses.

They are warnings.

Yet most people prefer the noise of celebration

to the discipline of true analysis.

New Year’s Eve remains one of the rare moments when everything surfaces.

That silence just after the countdown.

That gaze drifting away for a few seconds.

That fleeting thought: “I can’t continue exactly like this.”

At that precise moment, everything becomes readable.

Alignment… or misalignment.

What will truly shape 2026 will not be what is promised that night.

It will be what one finally agrees to face from 2025.

Why certain decisions cost more than they delivered.

Why certain loyalties constrained more than they protected.

Why some successes left behind an unexplained fatigue.

And why some failures, in truth, played a necessary role.

The real shift is not the change of year.

It is the change of perspective.

The kind that stops trying to do better,

and starts understanding what was no longer right.

New Year’s Eve is a discreet threshold,

where the rarest form of intelligence

is neither predictive nor analytical,

but deeply lucid.

Because it knows how to read wear before rupture.

And how to decide before reality does it for you.
