New Year’s resolutions are a popular tradition where people set goals to improve themselves in the upcoming year. These resolutions can range from health and fitness to academics and hobbies.
The start of a new year provides a perfect opportunity to reflect on the past and plan for a positive change. Setting resolutions can be a powerful way to motivate oneself and create a path for growth and success.
National Quitters Day, which falls on the second Friday of January, highlights how many people give up on their New Year’s resolutions early. It’s common for people to start the year with big goals, but sticking to them can be tough.
Feeling discouraged is a normal part of the process and can help you stay motivated. Instead of quitting, use National Quitters Day as a reminder to reassess your goals, make adjustments, and keep pushing forward.
