I am here to tell you that if you have already broken a resolution or two, you are not alone.
For many people the new year is viewed as a new chance to start over, hence the symbolism of the old man or woman at midnight welcoming the newborn baby after the clock strikes twelve.
The key to success of a resolution—or perhaps better put, a lifestyle change—is a well-thought and realistic plan for success. The keys to success are a reasonable goal and a strategy to make it work.
Perhaps most important, don't be discouraged if a resolution fails. You don't have to wait a year to start again.
