Have you made New Year reolutions? How long will you keep them?

Another year is drawing to a close. Do you still bother with New Year's resolutions?

I have made a resolution to form exactly 2 important new habits that will be life-changing and that I am fully committed to, so much so that I started early. Therefore, yes, I WILL keep my resolutions. Making resolutions with no intention of keeping them is lying to yourself, which is really pretty lame as the person you're telling the lie to knows for SURE that you're fibbing and then won't take you as seriously in the future. :)

This is the first time in my life that I've made a New Year resolution. Before I thought it was silly...but I don't know what made me change my mind. 

Anyway, My resolution is to try enjoy little things more, to learn more and be less impatient with others and myself. How long will i be able to keep them? Good question. I don't know. But it feels good. Sure thing I will try more...and even if i achieve 10% of that, it will be great :)

I don't like to come up with resolutions for the new year. However, I do set goals. Some goals I set at the beginning of the year, some I add as the year goes on.

I totally agree with Jacob. A majority of efforts to achieve small but really concrete goals equivalently creates more chances to fulfill them. I would even say that someone who do some resolutions, admits at the same time that he hasn't any serious, long-term desires to achieve them. So I would argue that the best way to achieve sth significant is accomplishing step by step small goals on the way to something substantial.

This year I am totally resolute in my resolutions. :D
