Because who better to talk about how New Year's Resolutions are procrastination repackaged and repurposed to suit people's needs than someone who is quite notorious at it. <\/p>January is actually quite a good month for anyone who has made a strict resolution. Even if things go well, you soon find that people who were serious about changing their lives, quitting smoking, losing weight, working out are all slowly dropping out of their new found hobbies and going back to the old ones. You tell yourself that one day won't hurt, that one day becomes two days, a week, a fortnight, eventually a month. You feel guilty, you rationalise the guilt saying that your friends are not going anyway or not following their resolutions anyway, so you'll be alright. Then December comes again and you are back to square one. <\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1514025257677","data":"5a3e3352a437a"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1514025259280","data":"The key to being successful with your resolutions is to believe, truly and utterly believe that you are going to change your life. This is, sadly, not the case with a vast majority of people Everyone has their own battles to fight, some people go overboard and add multiple resolutions to that battle. Resolutions should be something that you actually want to do instead of just making one because you feel guilty, only then can it be truly pursued. <\/p>This is why most resolutions fail, the procrastination and the insincerity of the maker automatically encourages a culture of being lazy with your goals to the point that you lose sight of what you wanted to do until you see someone who actually managed to drop all those kilos or managed to quit a vice, which is when you feel guilty and go through the whole cycle of guilt tripping and making a resolution you do not intend to keep. <\/p>So sit down, relax, and make sacrifices, slowly, at your own pace. It's going to be alright. <\/p>This is going to be my last article this year. I hope you had fun reading, I'll come back and finish Last Woman Standing in 2018 but until then, have a blast at the New Year's party wherever you're going and I wish you all the best for keeping your resolutions. Who knows, I might just copy paste this article next year this time again, just to be sure.  <\/p>"}]
