What’s Your New Year’s Resolution?
Believe it or not, those New Year’s Resolutions may have some meaning.
Statistics show that around 45% of people make resolutions each year. While only 8% are successful, people who make explicit resolutions are 10 times more likely to attain their goals than people who don’t.
As 2014 draws near, consider personal, professional, and even volunteer goals for yourself. Traditional resolutions include ‘losing weight’ and ‘eating healthy food’, but what about including your involvement in your youth sports organization in your resolution?
For example, how about committing to dedicating 3 hours a week to the organization? Is that both reasonable and attainable?
