With every new year comes the time to make New Year's resolutions where we look at ourselves and focus on what we could do differently or what we could spend more time focusing on in the New Year. We often hear the phrase "New Year, New Me" referring to these changes that we would like to make. In all reality, the majority of us who set out to do things differently in this new year end up falling off track or putting our time and energy into other things, forgetting what our goals were.
