seems reasonable. The thing about January is that it's a schelling point (for many people) for higher-level considerations than the usual month-to-month goal setting might be. Indeed people could and should do that any time. But if they haven't they should do it in January (AKA now for January)
The idea is to still use 1 January as a Schelling point, but to work towards it in advance, as one does for Christmas.
