Hold On to Your Resolutions

Here's a quick tip to help you to stick to your resolutions. Whether you have resolved to lose weight, to exercise, or to quit smoking, 90 percent of people give up on these resolutions in 2 to 3 weeks. However, it takes at least 30 days to begin to change a bad habit into a positive routine. So what ever goal you are setting, commit to it for the next 30 days. Instead of saying you want to exercise more this year, you may want to say that you will exercise more for the next 30 days. Hopefully after that period of time, the next 30 days will be easier, and so on and so on.
