As the sands of time slowly empty into the bottom of the yearly hourglass, we're trying to decide if we should make this resolution or that, or even trying to come to terms with our ability (or inability) to make and keep resolutions at all.
We're a funny species - mankind. For the life of us, we have the best of intentions in mind when we solemnly promise ourselves to do this or that, or not to do this or that. But - so very often - we fail to live up to the task.
The problem with New Year's resolutions is that we generally can't change just by willing ourselves to change. We need to work hard at change, and in many cases make major adjustments to our lifestyle.
Enough time has passed since New Year's Day to ask the evil question: How's the New Year's Resolution going?
If the answer is 'not so well' the following list will help you use the current jargon of today to communicate, in a less specific way, the brutal reality of your resolution bust.
Oh well...Happy New Year!
