Because it's all an impulse decision

"New Year's Resolutions" are the exact opposite of setting good goals

Good goals:

  • need to be definable
    • "I will start restricting calories and target a 1lb per week loss"
    • not "get in shape"
  • need to be actionable
    • "I will start making plans right now, and implementing them tonight"
    • not "I will wait till a specific time of the year"
  • need to be sustainable
    • "I will adjust my strategy to work around my daily habits and otherwise be flexible"
    • not "NO MORE SWEETS"
