Ringing the resolutions bell...pretty late though!!

While I know it’s a tad late to talk about New Year resolutions, I couldn’t really hold back the urge. Having read the article about people giving up their resolutions, only nine days into 2012, I had to come here and write. I was aware that most people did not stick to what they resolved, but as early as nine days and as many as 75% of the people surveyed, came as a shocker.

I was wondering whether it had anything to do with the maximum resolutions being related to ‘eating healthier food’ or ‘loosing weight’ this year. Those ones are easier to make than keep; after all who doesn’t love food and rest? I might sound selfish, but it’s a bit beneficial for me if those resolutions aren’t being kept I guess. I can go back to the gym and get to effectively use the equipments again, as all the new resolution makers would be gone!

I personally believe that New Year is not the only time to resolve to do something, one can begin a good deed, anytime, anywhere and simpler the resolutions, easier they are to abide by. Wasn’t that actually the tradition when it was all started by the Romans? Simply to be good! That’s exactly what I resolve to do every year, and I don’t remember punching anyone in the face, ever!

The main reason I wanted to blog, was to prove that I do not belong to the 75% group who set unattainable goals and then give up. Since it was the International Thank You Day a few days ago, I stuck to my resolution of being nice and thanking everyone I know for being a wonderful part of my life. Oh and thank you all for reading this too! Go ahead, and even if its late, thank everyone now to let them know they are special!
