I think I’ve come to the conclusion that deciding upon some new resolutions at the start of the year is usually a rather silly and pointless exercise. Doesn’t it just set you up for disappointment?

After all, it’s a well-known fact that most people don’t stick to their resolutions for more than a day or two or a couple of weeks at most.

Besides, what makes January 1st such an important day that it alone should mark the new beginning for not only the change of year but also changes in one’s life?

Sure. I suppose it can be a good thing from a symbolic perspective, but isn’t starting fresh and making new beginnings – well…isn’t that what mornings are for? And we each get 365 of those per year! Shouldn’t we be resolving to “______” every single day?
