New Year’s Resolutions

Why do people make New Year’s resolutions? I know a lot of people who make at least one New Year’s resolution. They make promises to themselves to start doing something or to end bad habits. It sounds great at first, wanting to make a change in their lives. Change is good when it actually occurs. Waiting until the first day of the year to make a difference in one’s own life seems pointless. Within days, weeks, or months, it is as if their New Year’s resolution never existed. People who are serious about changes in their life, make adjustments as needed, not New Year’s resolutions.
