January 1st - Happy New Year!

 

A Brand New Year Settles In

 

Hello dear visitor!

Welcome to the new year! We wish you to have a wonderful year and to reach all your goals.

When new year arrives, we generally make new year resolutions on things to do and to get, i.e. losing those 10 pounds we gained last year, earning more money to buy the new car that we saw, get some additional bucks to bring the whole family on vacation in another country, and much more.

How many of these goals did you reach? Personally, I always can delay at least 50% of my new year resolutions - they mostly become "next year" resolutions, lol.

In this page we are going to review the most popular New Year resolutions.

Feel free to post your own New Year objectives in the guestbook so that we get to learn more about you - and at the same time, we might not have covered the entire New Year objective list.

Where are those resolutions gone?

 

Sometimes we feel like if our new year resolutions vanished faster than we planned them.

How many times have you planned to lose weight by summertime and how many times didn't you reach your goals for whatever reason?

How many times did you plan to stop smoking and, on December 31st Midnight hour did you light a cigarette?

Personally I still have those pounds to lose, I still smoke and I still face financial troubles at some times in the year - particularly when holidays or birthdays are upcoming. This doesn't prevent me from making new year resolutions. Year after year, I fail 50% of them.

But this year I made decision on not failing a single. Are there any tips to help me out?
