The start of a new year is always a common time for setting targets, identifying goals and kicking bad habits.
The best of intentions are laid out in January as we feel slightly guilty following a period of over-indulging.
But how quickly are these good intentions eroded? How soon do we revert to type because we have not been as persistent and consistent with our new year’s resolutions as we had hoped to be?
How often do we find an excuse – perhaps because “we don’t have the time” – to genuinely make a change or sustain certain behaviours?
We do this in both our personal and professional lives and – for me – setting a new year’s resolution is a pointless exercise if you have not got the willpower or the motivation to see it through.
