  • Two, one, Happy New Year!

  • It's our one holiday where we celebrate the passage of time, which makes people stop and think: How do I want next year to be different than this year?

  • Maybe you're feeling a little girthy, or a bit too lazy, or maybe this is the year you finally find that new job.

  • Regardless of what your New Year's resolution is we want to remind you, you will probably fail.

  • Yep, eighty percent of New Year's resolutions completely and utterly fail.

  • That's because people don't understand the difference between a New Year's resolution and a New Year's plan.

  • You see resolutions can be made on a whim.

  • Your resolution will probably make you feel like crap for the first couple of weeks and without a plan to get yourself through you're destined to fail.

  • A plan takes forethought.

  • A plan means you're serious.

  • A plan breaks up your resolution in small achievable chunks and has many rewards along the way.

  • A plan is tracked in a journal and a plan recognizes that there's nothing magical about January 1st.

  • People who make plans are twice as likely to achieve their resolution.

  • So we wish you a Happy New Year.

  • May all your plans come true, from us to you.

Two, one, Happy New Year!
