THE GREAT RESOLVE

January 2nd…. The holidays behind us.
As we go back to the business of our lives it seems about everyone I meet asks me the age-old question.
What is your new year’s resolution?
Well, my answer has been the same year after year. NONE
For you see I resolved sometime in the 1980’s never to make any more new years resolutions. To this day, I have not strayed from it. I always keep that new years resolution faithfully.

Most people don’t understand why resolutions are so difficult to keep. Weather it is; I’L loose weight, I’L quit smoking, I’ll stop cheating on my wife and taxes. The reason is simple. A resolution seems like such great idea around the end of November and beginning of December and reaches a fever pitch on the 31st after several cocktails. Now when the New Year hits our resolutions wane with the passing days. By the end of January there are all but gone. Too difficult to keep. We are creatures of habit however New Year’s resolutions are habit we just can’t seem to keep.

To those of you who are dead set on having a N.Y.R. but have not come up with one, here is a website that can offer some suggestions……Good luck
