I think it’s quite easy to keep new year’s resolutions if you have some motivation. For example, you have the goal not to earn much money, but to earn to go for a holiday somewhere, etc. Of course, to stride forward your aims you need to look after your health, not only physical, but also mental and one of the most important part is to set not many goals at once, so that the chance to reach them doubles.
