The new year is a great way to start afresh and to try and change one’s habits.
Setting a set of resolutions for yourself helps you grow but it is so much easier to make them and keeping them is very difficult.
1. Choose a specific goal
Try and select a goal that is achievable and realistic don’t aim for something you know is impossible to achieve.

If you want to reach the same goals that you have tried to reach, try and spend time evaluating your previous results. Find out what prevented you from achieving your goals.

At the beginning of the year you might feel motivated to achieve everything, but afterwards reality will kick in and you need to start achieving that goal. It is best that you remind yourself why you set your resolutions.
