Fulfilling your New Year’s resolutions
If you’re like many, you have probably set one or more New Year’s resolutions for yourself. And like many, you have probably experienced a lot of failure and disappointment over the years when it comes to keeping those resolutions. Sorry to remind you.
But you didn’t fail because you’re a bad person. You didn’t fail because your intentions were not good. The reason why your resolutions didn’t meet with much success is simply because you lacked a plan - a real, concrete plan to help you master your ultimate goals in incremental, achievable steps.
Well, this year is going to be different. This year, you are going to resolve to make your New Year’s resolution(s) happen! Following are some great online resources to help you do just that.
