We all get excited When New Year’s Comes Around. Wait, what? Isn't that a song? Obviously, we’re talking about new Year’s, not Christmas! Oops, that’s my bad… please forgive me. Anyway, we celebrate with families, stay up until midnight (at least for some people) the list goes on and on. When the party’s over, oh come on not another song… a question comes to mind. Well, actually, a couple of them: what are New Year’s resolutions anyway? Why do we make them? What is the point if we’re just going to try for a few weeks and then quit? Well, rather than letting these questions remain unclear let's unwrap the gift of answers
From the dictionary, the definition states: a tradition in which a person is determined to maintain good practices, change a trait or behavior, etc. This is within the beginning of the calendar year of course. If this has ruffled all your feathers, let me try to explain the purpose of making New Year’s resolutions so you know egg xactly what we are hatching out. Oh, I forgot again, we are discussing New Year’s resolutions, not chickens. Well, this is a two-part question. Let’s answer the first part. We make New Year’s resolutions because they are traditions, and who doesn't want to stop traditions… huh? I also believe it makes us feel good. And we love to feel good. Nana, nana, nana, na. We knew that we would now. Nana, nana, nana, na. Oh sorry, I am in a groove. Some other factors could be external pressures like a physician telling you to make a change or a family member asking if you can spend more time with them, living longer and many others.
