It's the second Friday in January, which is commonly known as Quitter's Day, the day that most people have failed to keep their New Year's resolutions by. And if you fall into that camp, my question for you is, did you set up your resolution? Did you define your goal before the 1st of January? And if the answer to that is yes, that's likely your reason that you haven't kept those resolutions going. If you want to change something badly enough, you don't wait to a time in the future to start making that change. You do it now. So think back to what your resolution was. Maybe you do really want to change, but you need to come up with a reason that is stronger than the one that you had that meant, I'll just put it off till the 1st of January. Have a think on that and see, do you really, really Want to make that change.
