  • New Year's Resolutions are a commitment made at the beginning of the year which typically involve a goal of self-improvement. They are a tradition that dates back to Ancient Rome.

    The New Year's Resolution is a tradition that dates back to Ancient Rome. The first month of the Roman calendar was named after Janus, a two faced god believed to have looked forward to the coming year and back upon the previous simultaneously at the start of the New Year.

    Setting self-improvement goals is a common activity at the beginning of a new year, with an estimated 40% to 45% of Americans setting at least one resolution each yearhttp://www.newyearfestival.com/new-year-resolutions.html. According to a 300,000 response survey, the top ten resolutions made are:

    1. Lose Weight and Get in Better Physical Shape
    2. Stick to a budget
    3. Reduce debt
    4. Enjoy More Quality Time with Family & Friends
    5. Find My Soul Mate
    6. Quit Smoking
    7. Find a Better Job
    8. Learn Something New
    9. Volunteer and Help Others
    10. Get Organized


    Gary Ryan Blair is the inspiration behind New Year's Resolution Week. This annual event was founded on the premise, that a single resolution can positively and profoundly create lasting change in your life and help to make the world a better place.
