URBAN DICTIONARY: New Year's Resolutions - The things you promise yourself you will do over the year, but quit after the first 2 weeks.

“Bob's New Years Resolution was to lose 30 pounds...Yet Bob says a lot of things.”



...Bearing that in mind, here is my top ten NEW YEARS RESOLUTIONS:
1. Manage my time and make time
2. Motivate myself to work harder on my studies of French and Journalism
3. To use my summer wisely
4. Get fit
5. Start going to gigs again
6. Take more photos/start working on more photography
7. Reduce, reuse, recycle
8. Volunteer
9. Sort my Grammar out
10. Explore Sheffield and its surrounding areas

"A New Year's resolution is a commitment that a person makes to one or more lasting personal goals, projects, or the reforming of a habit. This goal must be reached by the Next New Year. Keep in mind that this is a goal, not a wish and should be something that you as a person could strive for."

40 to 45% of American adults make one or more resolutions each year.
According to a survey carried out, 75% of people pass the first week, 2 weeks- 71%, one month- 64%, and 46% after 6 months.
While a lot of people who make new years resolutions do break them, making these resolutions, I believe, is very useful.

Giving up smoking and losing weight are the favourites, and each year, the number of fitness DVD sales and Nicotine patches sold increases. Another popular promise made is to deal with better money management and debt reduction.
A tip? Don't set the bar too high, if you want to achieve it, make it realistic.
