Show Notes
It is the new year and we have finally ditched the dumpster fire that was 2020. A lot of people have new year's resolutions at the start of every year. In fact, according to finder.com, about 74% of adults in the US make a new years resolution. The most popular of these resolutions revolve around: health, self-improvement, money, family, love, and/or career.
So I wanted to take a quick break on the teaching side of things and focus on how we can keep our resolutions.
So I want to dive into the success and failure rates that I found on discoverhappyhabits.com. After the first week of January, 75% of the people who make a resolution are still successful in sticking with it. After one month, that number drops to only 3 in 5 people. After 6 months, that number drops to 4%. Overall, by the end of the year, about 9% of people feel successful in their resolution goals.
Why do you think so many people fall short when it comes to their new year's resolution?
