I am just doing a periodic critique here. I find myself fully in control, with respect to all of my new year resolutions. I wonder, why I didn't do these, very beneficial, things earlier.
I think the reasons for success are as follows:
- High degree of commitment
- High degree of self-discipline
- Intense desire to reach specific goals related to the resolutions
- Subordinating other activities, such as watching TV, to the new year resolutions
- Family support and encouragement
Am I committed because these are a new year resolutions? Can we manufacture commitment during other times of the year?
The key, above all, is to be ruthless with yourself till these resolutions become habits and take on a life of its own.

What is your experience so far?
