Why wait until the beginning of a new year to change habits? Why not now?
Here are 4 reasons New Year's Resolutions DON'T WORK.
Most People Don't Stick To Them Anyways
I used to work at a gym when I was in high school and I can personally vouch that most of the people stop coming eventually. We were always really, really busy from January 1st to the middle of February then people slowly came less and less. However, this does not only apply to exercise and can be relevant with any New Year's Resolution
The New Year Doesn't Mean "New Me"
Though for some, motivation does come with the start of the new year, writing a different number on your papers doesn't correlate with your goals!! Days still feel the same in the next year as they did the year before and you will stay the same too.
Waiting to Start Means Lack of Motivation
People use waiting until the new year as an excuse to be as lazy as possible for as long as possible. If you really want to make a change in your life, you wouldn't wait for another change to "motivate" you. You would make the change as soon as possible!
People Set Their Goals Too High
Using the exercise example again, setting a goal that you are going to work out every single day in the new year when before you never worked out is too hard. (0 to 100 real quick??). Setting smaller, more achievable goals is the better way to make really changes in your life! Ever heard of SMART goals?? These are the way to go.
