A short motivational monologue (YouTube) by Jacqueline Elliott that challenges the listener to stop making empty promises to themselves—especially New Year’s resolutions—and to choose commitment over cyclical goal-setting and quitting. The speaker highlights the common pattern of starting strong (e.g., Jan 1) and giving up soon after (e.g., by Jan 10).

How many times has it been January 1st, and you set a goal or you said, I'm going to start going to the gym, and this is it. This is. This is what's going to make the difference, and by January 10th, you give up. How many times have you let yourself down and make promises yourself that you can't keep? Your family is going to question you because you keep breaking promises. You're going to have to decide right now, I'm going to quit making promises.
