I think first and foremost this past year has been a very stressful one for everybody. So to start out this conversation, like most people, Iâ€™ve found that many of my New Yearâ€™s resolutions seem to fail within the first month. Statistic show that 80% of these resolutions are forgotten by the second week in February, but more amazing, 25% of people give up within the first week. Not good odds if you think about it. Looking back at my previous attempts of sticking with my resolution, I pretty much fall in category # 1. I decided that my resolutions were either not realistic, nor did I set a plan on how to achieve the goal. Like most people, we have great aspirations of quitting smoking, starting a new exercise plan or the most popular of all is the vow to lose weight. While all these are great ideas, we donâ€™t fully think about what it will actually take to achieve these goals.
